We are three children from three different continents and we’d like to tell you what we think about the environment. The children of the world are disappointed because tooSpeech 1 adults are too interested in money and wealth to take notice of serious problems that affect our future. Young people from all over the world have many things to say about the environment, but we all agree on one serious problem – most leaders don’t listen. We are here today because we want you to listen – to listen to everybody.
Here’s what the children of the world are saying: Governments of the world must:
● make sure that all people from developing countries have free access to clean drinking water;
● limit the number of cars per family;
● stop cutting down trees without replacing them. People of the world must:
● make use of alternative transportation such as walking, biking and car-pooling;
● reduce, reuse, and recycle as much as possible. We are worried that many governments listen too much to those who care very little for the environment and people. Remember, we cannot buy another planet, and our lives and those of future generations depend on this. We are not asking too much! You said this Summit is about taking action! We need more than your applause and comments of “well done” or “good speech”. We need ACTION!
Thanks for having us here and for listening to the voices of children.Speech 2 Thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak to you today. I wish, however, we could do more than just talk. The Earth Summit is not just about good speeches and big words; itLadies and Gentlemen, is about doing something about the problems we are facing. I will try to do something right now, right here. That’s why I have brought this big bag. What do you think is in it? Well, I’ll show you. Yes, that’s right, rubbish! On my way over here, I picked up the rubbish I saw in rubbish bins on the street so that I could talk to you about what rubbish really is. Some of you might think that rubbish is what we throw away, something useless that only causes problems. Well, I say that that’s rubbish. Let me explain what I mean. What is really in this bag? Resources possibilities, money, jobs and solutions! What we call rubbish today is actually the resources of tomorrow. Let me tell you how we can use rubbish – some left – over food, a milk carton, and an empty bottle – to make the future greener, cleaner, and better, and to make money.Reading on Page141 1.
