We speak to recently crowned Miss Earth-Fire about Thailand\u2019s eco credentials<\/h3>\n

Following her coronation as Miss Earth Thailand this September, 28-year-old Jareerat “Baitong” Petsom took the runner-up title of Miss Earth–Fire in the final round of the international Miss Earth pageant, held virtually on November 21st. Her eco video—a required submission from all finalists in the annual competition—won the Best Video award for its strong environmental message and stunning natural scenery showcasing Baitong’s hometown of Chumphon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Baitong has taken part in many beauty pageants, including two entries in the Miss Universe Thailand contest. But the environmental activist and sustainability advocate came into her own in the Miss Earth contest. <\/span><\/p>\n

Koktail sat down with the recently crowned Miss Earth-Fire to discuss pageantry as activism, environmental projects in Thailand, and her journey to promote eco-friendly living.<\/span><\/p>\n
