珊文·古立斯.铃木(SevernCullis-Suzuki)的父亲是世界知名的加拿大遗传学家与环保人士戴维·铃木博士(Dr.DavidSuzuki),热心致力于环保工作并且成效卓著,曾荣获「全球优秀领导奖」。珊文·古立斯.铃木是世界上最杰出的青年环保斗士之一,从年少时起,她就藉由发表演讲、主持电视节目与写作,以倡导环保,并力促大众建立价值观、所作所为都要想到未来,以及负起个人应尽的责任。1992年当珊文·铃木12岁时,她自己筹钱到巴西的里约热内卢,在联合国的地球峰会上,她做了5分钟的发言。一开始大家觉得这只是漫长会议中的另一场发言而已,随着她大声说出的每一句话,会场开始变得非常安静。坐在听众席上的高官、重要人物、各国领导、科学家们,有的表情尴尬,有的似乎被什么击中,有的开始擦眼泪。还有更多的人,他们低下了头,好象不知道该怎么和这个小孩对视。一年后,她在中国北京获得联合国环境规划署颁发的“全球五百精英荣誉奖”(Global500RollofHonorAward)。2002年她主持数个电视节目,其中包括在探索频道(DiscoveryChannel)播出的“铃木自然探索节目”(Suzuki’sNatureQuest)。她和朋友于2002年在约翰内斯堡的联合国世界高峰会议上,发表“承担责任”(RecognitionofResponsibility)的誓言,表达北美人民关怀环境的心声。英文:“Hello,IamSevernSuzukispeakingforE.C.O-theEnvironmentalChildren’sOrganization.Weareagroupof12and13year-oldstryingtomakeadifference,VanessaSuttie,MorganGeisler,MichelleQuiggandme.We’veraisedallthemoneytocomehereourselves,tocome5,000milestotellyouadultsyoumustchangeyourways.Comingupheretoday,Ihavenohiddenagenda.Iamfightingformyfuture.Losingmyfutureisnotlikelosinganelection,orafewpointsonthestockmarket.”“Iamheretospeakforallgenerationstocome.Iamheretospeakonbehalfofthestarvingchildrenaroundtheworldwhosecriesgounheard.Iamheretospeakforthecountlessanimalsdyingacrossthisplanet,becausetheyhavenowherelefttogo.Iamafraidtogooutinthesunnow,becauseoftheholesinourozone.Iamafraidtobreathetheair,becauseIdon’tknowwhatchemicalsareinit.IusedtogofishinginVancouver,myhome,withmyDaduntil,justafewyearsago,wefoundafishfullofcancers.Andnowwehearofanimalsandplantsgoingextincteveryday,vanishingforever.Inmylife,Ihavedreamtofseeingthegreatherdsofwildanimals,junglesandrainforestsfullofbirdsandbutterflies,butnowIwonderiftheywillevenexistformychildrentosee.”“Didyouhavetoworryofthesethingswhenyouweremyage?Allthisishappeningbeforeoureyesandyetweactasifwehaveallthetimewewantandallthesolutions.I’monlya---本文来源于网络,仅供参考,勿照抄,如有侵权请联系删除---childandIdon’thaveallthesolutions,butIwantyoutorealize,neitherdoyou.Youdon’tknowhowtofixtheholesinourozonelayer.Youdon’tknowhowtobringthesalmonbackupadeadstream.Youdon’tknowhowtobringbackananimalnowextinct.Andyoucan’tbringbacktheforestthatoncegrewwherethereisnowadesert.Ifyoudon’tknowhowtofixit,pleasestopbreakingit.”“Hereyoumaybedelegatesofyourgovernments,businesspeople,organizers,reportersorpoliticians.But,really,you’remothersandfathers,sistersandbrothers,auntsandunclesandallofyouaresomeone’schild.I’monlyachild,yetIknowweareallpartofafamily,5billionstrong,infact30millionspeciesstrong.Andbordersandgovernmentswillneverchangethat.I’monlyachild,yetIknowweareallinthistogetherandshouldactasonesingleworldtowardsonesinglegoal.”“Inmyanger,IamnotblindandinmyfearIamnotafraidoftellingtheworldhowIfeel.Inmycountrywemakesomuchwaste,webuyandthrowaway,buyandthrowaway,buyandthrowawayandyetNortherncountrieswillnotsharewiththeneedy.Evenwhenwehavemorethanenoughweareafraidtoshare,we...
