Nikta is credited with being the inspiration behind the Cars To Trees Enterprise. She has and still does help to maintain the traction and momentum moving forward. She represents the peers of her new generation (Gen Z) in this global innovation. Additionally she is a qualified representative of all the human population impacted by societies lack of environmental justice, its consequences and accountability thereto. All in her generation have the right to critical of all of the irresponsible behavior of past generations that led to the need for innovations such as Cars To Trees and other Carbon Capture Technology applications. The primary objective of Cars To Trees was a result of Gen Z’s sophisticated and intelligent questioning their elders past shortsighted actions. Nikta is an honorary member of the Cars To Trees team. Moreover, she represents Gen Z and will track, monitor and review Cars To Trees empirical data to make sure Cars To Trees remains focused on its founding intention of restoring environmental justice within the scope of the Carbon Capture initiative.
