Hello, My name Severn Suzuki, speaking for ECO - Environmental Children's Organization
We are group of Canada which consisted of children "aged 12 and 13 years. The attempt to create a difference: Vanessa Suttie, Morga, Geister, Michelle Quiq and myself. We can raise money to come here as far as 6000 miles. To tell you all adults that you must change your ways, today here, too. I do not have a hidden agenda. I want a future for myself only.
Loss of the future is not the same as losing the general election or losses in the stock market. I was here to speak for all generations to come.
I was here to represent the child "wrote hunger around the world that cries no longer heard.
I was here to speak for the animals "that dying without number throughout the planet because of its loss of habitat. We can not not listen.
I was afraid to be under the sun because of its ozone layer hole. I was afraid to breathe because I did not know there was so-chemicals carried by air.
I'm often fishing in Vancouver with my dad until a few years ago we discovered that the fish "was full of cancer. And now we hear that the animals' and plants extinct one by one each day - gone forever.
In my life, I have a dream to see a large collection of animals "wild, jungle and tropical forests filled with birds and butterflies". but now I do not know if it "is even still there to see my son later.
Do you all have to worry about the problem "this small when you all were the same age I am now serperti?
All this happened in front of us and although we still act like we still have a lot of time and all of its solutions. I was just a kid and I do not have all of his solutions but I want you all to realize that you are all also the same as me!
You do not know how to fix a hole in our ozone layer.
You do not know how how to restore the salmon fish into the river of origin.
You do not know how to restore the animals that have become extinct.
And you can not restore the Forest-Forest to normal now in place only a desert ..
If you do not know how to fix them.
PLEASE STOP ruin it!
Here you are deligasi your country. Employers, union members, journalists or politicians - but sebenernya you are the father and mother, brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts - and you all are children of a person.
I was just a kid, but I know that we are all part of a large family, consisting of more than 5 billion, consisting of 30 million families and we all share the air, water and soil on the same planet - borders and governments will not be change it.
I'm Only a small child but once I know that we all face the same problems and we should unite for the same purpose.
Although angry, but I'm not blind, and even fear, I did not hesitate to tell the world what I feel.
In my country, we are very much to waste, we buy something and then thrown away, to buy and then discard. although it still states "in the north are not going to share with those in need.
Even when we have more than enough, we are afraid to lose some of our wealth, we are afraid to share.
In Canada we have a comfortable life, with clothing, food and shelter are inadequate - we have watches, bicycles, computers and television sets.
Two days ago here in Brazil, we were surprised when we spend time with children "who live on the streets. And one child told us:" I wish I was rich, and if I'm rich, I will give children "street food, clothing and medicines, shelter. and Love and Affection ".
If a child who was in the streets who do not have any, are willing to share, why do we who have everything still so greedy?
I can not stop thinking that children "are the same age with me, that place of your birth can make such a big difference. That I might be one of the children" who live in the Rio Favellas; I can become a starving child in Somalia; a middle eastern war victims or a beggar in India.
I was a little kid but I knew that if all the money spent on war is used to reduce the level of kemisikinan and find answers to the problems of nature, how would the world be beautiful.
At school, even in kindergarten you teach us to do good. You taught us to not fight with other people.
Looking for a way out, clean up the mess that we caused.
Does not hurt other living creatures, sharing and not greedy ..
Then why did you then do your thing so ajarakan us not to do it?
Do not forget why you are attending this conference. why did you do this - we are the children "you all, you decide sekalianlah what kind of world would we live. his parents should be able to give comfort to the children" they are saying "
Everything will be fine ". 'We did the best we can do' and 'this is not the end of everything'
But I do not feel that you can say it to us again. Are we even on the list of all your priorities?
My dad always said 'you will always be remembered for your deeds, not by the word' mu '
So, what you do makes me cry at night. adult you say that you love us.
I challenge YOU, try to realize the word "the.
Thank you for his attention.
Servern Cullis-Suzuki has silenced the courtroom 1 United Nations Conference, silencing all the people "is important from all over the world just by his speech, after he finished a speech at the same time all people who attended the speech in the room stood and gave a standing ovation for the 12-year-old child.
and after that the UN chief said in his speech ..
"Today I feel very ashamed of my own self because I had just made aware of how important na environments and its contents around us by the Son who is only 12-year-old forward was standing at the pulpit without any piece of text to speech, was not it brought forward my numerous manuscripts that have been made by my assistant yesterday ...
