Severn Suzuki speaking at UN Earth Summit 1992BackRaised 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. more information on http://www.davidsuzuki.org BigUp to my friend Sebastian Sturm for letting me use his song... yes bredgin, TELL THEM THE TRUTH!!! http://www.sebastian-sturm.com http://www.myspace.com/sebastiansturm Category: News Uploaded: May 29th, 2007 @ 5:11 pm Author: speedyboh Length: 07:52 Rating: Views: Tags: one world earth environment eco children better future nature capitalism pollution poverty war global warming knom seng Related Video Links:» View Video Comments For Severn Suzuki speaking at UN Earth Summit 1992 » View speedyboh's Other Uploaded Videos Video Thumbnails:Video Embedding Code:* Embed this video on your website, social bookmark, myspace, or blog. |
