Severn Cullis-Suzuki will be our guest at the Faculty of Education, University of Regina this March 4th, from 7:00-8:30 p.m. CST. The title of the talk is “Education for Sustainability: Touching All Of Our Lives”. I will be live streaming the event at my Open Thinking Ustream Channel. We invite you to attend face-to-face or virtually.
Some of you may know Cullis-Suzuki from this viral video titled “The Girl Who Silenced the World for 5 Minutes”, filmed in 1992 when she was 12 years old.
More information about the event can be found here.

This is a great statement. It surprises me that this speech took place in 1992. What has the world been doing? I think that our ability to ignore what is happening around us is sad. Many people are wrapped up in their lives that we “forget” about these things happening in the world. I watched this video for the first time about 6 months ago. I am glad to hear the speaker is still out for the cause. Thank you for the update! =)

This is such an amazing message. Wonderful to receive an update. Our young people play such a vital role in spreading the message of sustainability. I have conducted an inquiry with students called The Sustainable Table with the purpose of exploring and applying sustainable practices in the kitchen. The presentations which they delivered after preparing a sustainable afternoon tea highlighted that everyone from a very young age can make small changes which can have a huge impact. I will definitely be referring to Severn’s presentation to inspire my students. Many thanks!
