This young girl addressed the United Nations in the 90s regarding the environment. I had not seen this until recently. If you care about the environment, then this is 6 minutes of the most compelling speaking to world leaders I have heard. I was in tears half way through it. I wanted to apologize to her and her generation. I became even more resolved to positive change.
The quality of the video is not so good. The quality of the speech is unsurpassed.
