I think she has spoken more sense in one go than any politician ever has, even if you add up everything they've ever said and put it all together!! http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=10459638 IP: Logged |

I thought it was very well-spoken, very adult. I do wonder if there is an adult ghost writer attached to what she said. I thought parts of it were a little dramatic. I don't think species are going extinct on a daily basis, and I don't think rain forrests have been replaced with desert (and I also think it's a little fatalistic to imply that re-planting is not an option). It was a good speech, though. IP: Logged |

Severn Sazuki is a very smart little girl with very real concerns. Her family should be commended for supporting her views and supplying her with the resources to have attended this event.Excellent post ------------------ Sendin' love your way, "your friend in spirit" IP: Logged |

She does make some good points, especially her question about whether previous generations had to be concerned over these things.IP: Logged |

AG, parts of the rain forest have been replaced by desert, in a sense. http://www.vsc.org/0902-environment.htm IP: Logged |
