Severn Cullis-Suzuki at Rio Summit 1992

Severn is an activist and writer who has been speaking out about social justice and environmental issues since she was small. At age 9, she started the Environmental Children's Organization (ECO) with a group of friends committed to learning and teaching others about environmental issues. In 1992, with ECO, Severn attended the Rio Earth Summit, where, at the age of twelve, she delivered a powerful speech that garnered worldwide attention. For this she received the UN Environment Program's Global 500 Award in Beijing the following year.
Since then, Severn has served on the UN's Earth Charter Commission and on Kofi Annan's Special Advisory Panel for the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg. She also co-founded the Skyfish Project, an Internet-based think tank that encourages youth to speak out for their future and adopt a sustainable lifestyle. In 2000, she and five friends carried out Powershift -- a cross-Canada cycling campaign to raise awareness about climate change and air pollution.
Severn received a Bachelor of Science in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from Yale University, and a Masters of Science in Ethnoecology from the University of Victoria, British Columbia, where she studied with Kwakwaka'wakw elders on the Pacific Northwest coast. She has completed several speaking tours in Japan with the Namakemono Club and has published several books including Tell the World (1993) The Day You Will Change the World (2003), and-as editor-Notes from Canada's Young Activists (2007). As a youth, Severn co-hosted the children's television series Suzuki's NatureQuest.
Currently, Severn lives on the Pacific Westcoast archipelago of Haida Gwaii with her husband and little boy. Here she studies the Haida language and hosts APTN's Samaqan -- Water Stories-a series about First Nations and water issues, now heading into its third season. She is a board member of the David Suzuki Foundation and the Haida Gwaii Higher Education Society, a Spark for the Girls Action Foundation, and a sustainability speaker worldwide. She hopes her pursuit of traditional and scientific knowledge and dedication to using her voice will help her promote a culture of diversity, sustainability and joy.

Of course, the only way the world works the way it does is because adults have conditioned themselves and various societies to play the social game in a certain way, while the naivety of children has been beaten out of them. We are still running with the basic social idea of "assimilate or suffer", and yet, assimilating *IS* suffering in this social context.

Not just over the last 50 years. Pretty much since the beginning of history. Alarmists have always been scammers who tried to gain money and power by instilling fear. The climate alarmists are exactly the same. I was around a lot longer than you. Winters are still cold, summers are still hot. The world is getting greener. That's the only noticeable change.

To be honest, I never considered that when I was her age, which is a shame, While she is already raising awareness of environmental destruction and persuading her audience to consider the consequences of our leaders' decisions. She is truly an amazing young lady for displaying such bravery at such a young age. But, even after 28 years, I don't think there have been many changes, and unfortunately, things have gotten worse.

    I watch this video 24 years after her speech and the world is still the same :(( I'm really confused... Should I and my friends quit our dreams and passions to try solving the environment problems? Hah, adults, that's our question after seeing the result of your actions. You cause it, and your children have to dismiss their future plan just to find a way to fix the "holes" of this world, or they will die. The world can be destroyed in 10 years, 5 years, 3 months, or even tomorrow. Thank you so much, it's moving but now I have very little time to find a solution of your interesting "gift". Anyway, it's not the end of the world.

    This. This is a masterpiece. I'm so amazed at how a young teen can even think about this. I'm currently not far off of her age at that time and yet I still can't be as wise. We all need to realize just how very important this is, the more generations to come the more impact they will get. No one can stop it unless our generation, right now do something about it..
