U. N. Environmental Address
This is young Severn Suzuki speaking to the U. N.’s Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro - in 1992.
Ms. Suzuki was 12 then. She is 28 now.
Aside from her age - what has changed?
Cheers.
Thanks, Ali.

Well, I know at the time I was editing an environmental series called “Common Ground.” We had interviews with the Dalai Lama, and a number of great speakers from the Summit.
And the mood coming out of Rio was hope and positive change.
Now, we’re swimming in SPF 50, the cod are gone, and pretty soon I’ll be able to canoe through the NW passage.
But it seems that there are still people out here who want to work on meaningful content that matters. Fire those guns, Rob!
