Servern Suzuki!! An incredibly smart little girl!!!!

This little girl is amazing, this was in 1992 and she speaks too much truth its unreal im glad that this little girl had the guts to spaek up like she has !



aised in Vancouver and Toronto, Severn Cullis-Suzuki has been camping and hiking all her life. When she was 9 she started the Environmental Children's Organization (ECO), a small group of children committed to learning and teaching other kids about environmental issues. They were successful in many projects before 1992, when they raised enough money to go to the UN's Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. Their aim was to remind the decision-makers of who their actions or inactions would ultimately affect. The goal was reached when 12 yr old Severn closed a Plenary Session with a powerful speech that received a standing ovation.

Peace and love all xxxxxxxxx

The sadness is a girl like this gets overlooked because she actually made too much sense.
She could have gave Obama a run for his money if allowed I am sure.
That is someone who is talking about REAL change and means it.

Too bad really.
Thanks for the kind words.

Your very welcome Drums. Its a shame a young girl like this gets overlooked, mor than likely becuase shes young but what most people forget is that the young mind is miles smarter than our older " educated " minds! peace x

Beauthiful words from a beauthiful mind.

I inderstand, in later years she became a spokeswoman on behave of the invirement etc.

I think Palin and Clinton are taking part of a "who has the best propaganda employee and biggest moneybag" contest.

Interesting. Why wasn't the ozone hole discussed in Copenhagen, or for that matter acid rain, which was the biggest environmental fear when I was 12?

And her biography in the OP makes no mention of the fact that she is the daughter of world famous environmentalist David Suzuki.

I guess that would get in the way of framing her as just some average kid who started her own grass roots campaign.

I'm all for addressing immediate environmental concerns,particularly pollution but nothing was addressed in Copenhagen except for co2 scare mongering and profiteering.

I whas thinking the same. Why CO2 an unproven and discutable villain, but nothing about the polution of the planet ?

It seems to me pollution is a much bigger and more dangerous obstacle to overcome. Climate change is an everlasting circle of planet sized proportion.

Those greedy F*u#s just want our money.
