As a Miss Earth delegate, an environmental advocacy is a must. Based from Miss Earth's website, Catharina's platform for the environment is the cleanup of plastic wastes in the ocean. She explained that because of these wastes, not only the marine animals are being affected by plastics but also because of its "microplastics that are blocking the sun from reaching the planktons and algae, hurting the whole marine food web."
During the entire preliminary activities of Miss Earth, Catharina was able to get a silver medal for the "I Love My Planet Schools Campaign".
During the coronation night of Miss Earth 2013, Catharina emerged as the Miss Earth - Fire or equivalent to third runner up. Miss Earth 2013 was won by Alyz Henrich of Venezuela.
