TBC Is Leading The Change On a Better Tomorrow

As I watched this popular video for the very first time, I could not help the tears from rolling down my cheeks; blurring my vision for most of it.  The profound truths coming out of the mouth of this 12 year old girl resonate with even greater force today, now that it has been decades since she spoke them.  In many ways, the issues she raised in 1992 have progressively gotten worse since then.
The tables have turned on Severn Cullis-Suzuki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Severn_Cullis-Suzuki the girl speaking as a girl in this video, addressing adults about a world filled with children and what the responsibilities of the adults are regarding them.  She is now an adult herself.  She is a 36 year old wife and mother of two children, and she continues to be an activist.
Below you will find the entire text of her speech, which will hopefully spread to every soul on Earth!  Allow me to take a few quotes from it and tie it together with the over-arching mission of TheBillionCoin community.  From a child’s perspective she said:
“Coming up here today, I have no hidden agenda. I am fighting for my future. Losing my future is not like losing an election, or a few points on the stock market.  I am here to speak for all generations to come. I am here to speak — speak on behalf of the starving children around the world whose cries go unheard.”
Those first words made my heart swell up and my eyes watery.  I have traveled quite a bit, even to many 3^rd world countries.  I have personally witnessed starving children, and they are everywhere!  A mal-nourished child is even more common than starving children and is practically just as bad.  I’ve seen children being used to raise money in the streets, as beggars, and apparently many of these children have been kidnapped from their parents for that purpose.  It’s a disgusting sight to witness first hand, especially when some of these children have been purposely maimed so that they could collect even more coins.  Child prostitution has also become common-place in some parts of the world.  Some children have not only lost their future, they have lost their childhood.
By the time she spoke the following words, the tears were rolling down my cheeks:
“Did you have to worry of these things when you were my age? All this is happening before our eyes and yet we act as if we have all the time we want and all the solutions. I’m only a      child and I don’t have all the solutions. I don’t — I want you to realize, neither do you.    You don’t know how to fix the holes in our ozone layer. You don’t know how to bring the salmon back up in a dead stream. You don’t know how to bring back an animal now extinct.   And you can’t bring back the forests that once grew where there is now a desert. If you don’t know how to fix it, please stop breaking it.”
She’s right!  If we don’t know how to fix something, at least we can stop breaking it and making it even worse!
Then like an arrow to the heart she speaks the truth:
“Here, you may be delegates of your governments, business people, organizers, reporters, or politicians. But, really, you are mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, aunts                 and uncles — and all of you are someone’s child.”
If You had a pleasant childhood; be grateful!  If You had a difficult childhood; may it give You the strength to make a better way for Your children.  Always remember that You were once a child too; You counted on the adults in Your life to tend to Your needs; and You are responsible for the next generation.
It’s easy to point fingers and blame our leaders.  Let me tell you something.  Our leaders are not completely at fault for the conditions we find ourselves in today.  This is our mess, we are all at fault!  If You need to find someone to blame; just step in front of the mirror, and stop making excuses for Yourself.
If you claim that You simply don’t have enough to share with others; that You are barely getting by Yourself.  Then TBC can change that.  Even if all You can afford is the purchase of just one TBC coin, then buy it and be grateful; because within that one TBC coin is the potential of enormous wealth for You.  You no longer have to waste Your precious life on the excuse of not having enough.  The world if full of every resource needed to provide comfort and security to every man, woman, and child on it.  To believe otherwise means You have fully embraced the great deception that scarcity is real.  Scarcity is not real!  Shortages come and go, but scarcity is an artificial device used against the masses to kill them and to enslave them.  Are You a slave?  Do You want to be a slave?
The real truth is that humanity does not need money.  An awakened humanity could operate without the time consuming and cumbersome activities associated with money.  TBC leads the pathway to a world filled with empowered individuals, living meaningful lives, and joy will be the natural byproduct on an existence driven by pure love.  TBC is part of a bridge from the world today to a much better world tomorrow.  TBC, a form of money, will flood in the resources desired so fast for each of You; that it will become self-evident to all that the resources were always there and we only needed to change our minds to access them.
May the voice of this 12 year old girl be held in Your heart from now on; stirring it to always take positive action towards a brighter future, not just within the walls of Your home, but for Your part in the whole world!

Hello, I’m Severn Suzuki speaking for “ECO” — the Environmental Children’s Organization.
We are a group of 12 and 13 year-olds trying to make a difference: Vanessa Suttie, Morgan Geisler, Michelle Quigg, and me. We’ve raised all the money to come here ourselves — to come 5,000 miles to tell you adults you must change your ways.
Coming up here today, I have no hidden agenda. I am fighting for my future. Losing my future is not like losing an election, or a few points on the stock market.
I am here to speak for all generations to come. I am here to speak — speak on behalf of the starving children around the world whose cries go unheard. I am here to speak for the countless animals dying across this planet, because they have nowhere left to go. I am afraid to go out in the sun now, because of the holes in our ozone. I am afraid to breathe the air, because I don’t know what chemicals are in it.
I used to go in — I used to go fishing in Vancouver, my home, with my Dad until, just a few years ago, we found the fish full of cancers. And now we hear of animals and plants going extinct every day, vanishing forever. In my life, I have dreamt of seeing the great herds of wild animals, jungles, and rainforests full of birds and butterflies, but now I wonder if they will even exist for my children to see.
Did you have to worry of these things when you were my age? All this is happening before our eyes and yet we act as if we have all the time we want and all the solutions. I’m only a child and I don’t have all the solutions. I don’t — I want you to realize, neither do you. You don’t know how to fix the holes in our ozone layer. You don’t know how to bring the salmon back up in a dead stream. You don’t know how to bring back an animal now extinct. And you can’t bring back the forests that once grew where there is now a desert. If you don’t know how to fix it, please stop breaking it.
Here, you may be delegates of your governments, business people, organizers, reporters, or politicians. But, really, you are mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, aunts and uncles — and all of you are someone’s child.
I’m only a child, yet I know we are all part of a family — five billion strong; in fact 30 million species strong —  and 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.
In — In my anger, I’m not blind; and in my fear, I’m not afraid of telling the world how I feel. In my country we make so much waste, we buy and throw away, buy and throw away, buy and throw away and yet Northern countries will not share with the needy. Even when we have more than enough we are afraid to share; we are afraid to let go of some of our wealth.
In Canada, we live the privileged life. We’ve plenty of food, water, and shelter. We have watches, bicycles, computers, and television sets. The list could go on for two days. Two days ago, here in Brazil, we were shocked when we spent time with some children living on the streets. This is what one child told us: “I wish I was rich and if I were, I would give all the street children food, clothes, medicines, shelter, and love and affection.”
If a child on the streets who has nothing is willing to share, why are we who have everything still so greedy? I can’t stop thinking that these are children my own age, that it makes a tremendous difference where you are born; that I could be one of those children living in the favelas of Rio. I could be a child starving in Somalia, or a victim of war in the Middle East, or a beggar in India. I am only a child, yet I know if all the money spent on war was spent on finding environmental answers ending poverty and in finding treaties, what a wonderful place this Earth would be.
At school, even in kindergarten, you teach us how to behave in the world. You teach us to not to fight with others, to work things out, to respect others, to clean up our mess, not to hurt other creatures, to share, not be greedy. Then, why do you go out and do — do the things you tell us not to do? Do not forget why you are attending these conferences — who you’re doing this for. We are your own children. You are deciding what kind of a world we are growing up in.
Parents should be able to comfort their children by saying, “Everything’s going to be all right; it’s not the end of the world, and we’re — and we’re doing the best we can.” But I don’t think you can say that to us anymore. Are we even on your list of priorities?
