Rinelys Karleys Rojas Rivera (born 29 May 1998) is a Venezuelan model and beauty pageant titleholder who was crowned as Miss Earth Venezuela 2024.
[10][11] Rojas had created a social project based on te conservation and protection of the marine ecosystem called 'Abraza el Océano' (Embrace The Ocean).
The project has focused on transmitting messages of awareness and sustainability in the care of coastal and marine ecosystems through monthly recycling in conjunction with the National Institute of Aquatic Spaces (INEA), as La Guaira state is a constituent part of the Venezuelan Coastal Range but at the same time it is impacted by being the source of one of the country's main ports.
[14][15] Her fantasy costume called 'Emperatriz de Las Perlas' (Pearl Empress) was particularly eco-friendly, being made wit recycling materials such as plastic cups and straws that resembled sea urchins and anemones, recreating Caribbean corals; in addition, 300 artificial pheasant feathers were manually created in waterproof taffeta attached by coconut palm rods.
[16][17][18] On November 17, 2023, Rojas represented La Guaira state at the Reinas y Reyes de Venezuela 2023 pageant, competing against 21 other contestants.
