Raised 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/sebasti...

Talking about looking foolish: Maybe you should spell check what you write before you post it.

It's amazing to see this 12 year old show intelligence beyond what most college kids seem to have and are proud of.

Those who've participated and furthered the U.N.'s eugenics program should be put on trial for crimes against humanity. Aborticide is a tenet of eugenics as practiced by Hitler's henchmen. The world can easily sustain thrice the current population. The Sub-Saharan countries are the World Health Organization's laboratory for all things fiendish. The proof of U.N. perfidy is everywhere from within & without.
