Cero Hero Announces Appointment of UN Climate Change Leader Ovais Sarmad to Advisory Board

Cero Hero, a platform focused on climate action, announces that Ovais Sarmad, former Deputy Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC, has joined its advisory board to strengthen global and grassroots efforts against climate change.

Cero Hero, a leading platform dedicated to empowering individuals and businesses in the fight against climate change, proudly announces the addition of Mr. Ovais Sarmad, former Deputy Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), to its advisory board. This strategic move highlights the company’s commitment to advancing global and grassroots efforts towards a sustainable future.

Mr. Sarmad brings a wealth of experience from his tenure at the UNFCCC, where he played a crucial role in shaping international climate policy, including overseeing the implementation of the Paris Agreement guidelines and establishing the Loss and Damage Fund at COP27. His extensive career also includes 27 years at the International Organization for Migration (IOM), where he served as Director of Cabinet and Chief of Staff to the Director General.

“We are thrilled to welcome Mr. Sarmad to the Cero Hero team,” said Mr. Saiteja Annareddy, CEO and Founder of Cero Hero. “His deep expertise in climate policy and international cooperation will be invaluable as we expand our platform and help more individuals and businesses take meaningful action against climate change.”

Mr. Sarmad, a staunch advocate for urgent climate action, has consistently highlighted the “triple planetary crisis” of climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss. He emphasizes the critical need for both international agreements and individual contributions to address these challenges. “Every fraction of a degree of global warming is resulting in loss of lives and livelihoods in many parts of the world. To address this issue, we must strengthen our resolve and commitment to accelerate climate action in all spheres of society, individually and collectively. We have the tools, technologies and global agreements – let’s put those to work towards a transformative change for a sustainable future for all,” said Mr. Sarmad.

One of the most exciting aspects of Mr. Sarmad joining Cero Hero is the bridge it creates between high-level international climate policy and grassroots action. Throughout his career, Mr. Sarmad has emphasized the importance of individual contributions to the fight against climate change. He believes that while international agreements and government policies are crucial, real change also depends on the actions of individuals and businesses.

Cero Hero’s platform provides tools for individuals and businesses to track their carbon footprints, develop strategies for reduction, offset emissions, and maintain sustainable practices. Mr. Sarmad’s involvement aims to bridge global policy and individual action, reinforcing the company’s mission to drive impactful climate solutions.
