Read this excerpt from “The Girl Who Silenced the World for Five Minutes.”
I'm only a child, yet I know we are all part of a family, five billion strong, in fact, thirty million species strong, and we all share the same air, water, and soil – borders and governments will never change that.
I'm only a child, yet I know we are all in this together and should act as one single world towards one single goal.
Why does Suzuki think people should “act as one single world”?
We all have different governments.
Borders separate our countries.
There are five billion people on Earth.
We all live on the same planet.
