What the Environment Means to EVC2

Placards raised high, and amendments submitted, the delegates of Environmental Commission 2 have begun a riveting debate. EVC2 focuses on the protection, development, and use of natural resources. This year, the discussions revolve around deep-sea mining, the safeguarding of marine and coastal cultural heritage in the face of rising sea levels, and cultural heritage as a tool for environmental conservation and sustainable practices. As EVC2 gets underway, we delve deeper into what the environment means to the delegates.

Fervently discussing deep-sea mining, delegates rush for the chance to speak on the issue. The room buzzes with energy as perspectives are shared, emphasizing both the pros and cons of a resolution. Looking closer, a passion for environmentalism emerges. 

“The environment is like, basically, our life, it’s my life as well, so it means a lot to me.”  Andrei Stankovic, the delegate of Zimbabwe, states. 

Delegates consider the issues they discuss highly relevant to current times, openly speaking their minds and addressing climate change and its impact on the world and smaller communities.  

“I am always happy to look at the other delegates’ opinions, and I also believe, yes, if we discuss these issues, we can move forward the solution,” Stephanie Andreou, the delegate of Grenada, asserts. 

Stephanie consistently strives to be mindful of the environment, reflecting on how her decisions might affect it. Recycling and lowering carbon emissions by riding her bike more are part of her daily routine. 

Continuing with THIMUN 2026, it’s evident that these discussions have sparked an inspiring commitment to advocating for the environment. The spirited voices of delegates remind us that our actions today will shape the future of our planet. The issues at hand at THIMUN are not just topics of debate, but calls to action for the future.
