"When you are little, it's not hard to believe you can change the world. I remember my enthusiasm when, at the age of 12, I adressed the delegates at the Rio Earth Summit 'I am only a child' I told them. ‘yet I know that if all the money spent on war was spent on ending poverty and finding environmental answers, what a wonderful place this would be. In school you teach us not to fight with others, to work thing out, to respect others, to clean up our mess, not to hurt other creatures, to share, not be greedy. Then why do you go out and do the thing you tell us not to do? You grownups say you love us, but I challenge you, please, to make your actions reflect your words."
[Cullis Suzuki]
It happened 16 years ago, and this 12 years old child believed that she could change somehow the world with that wonderful words. Now, we can see that those words spoken by she wasn't listened, and the world is getting worst, and I’m afraid about my children. I know that whatever I say, whatever I do, I can't change the natural course of life. The world will die, but is sad that people are dying from inside
