Contains audio from a speech given by Seven Suzuki (representing: Environment Children’s Organisation) at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, also known as the Rio Summit, Earth Summit 1992. It was a major conference held in Rio de Janeiro from June 3 to June 14, 1992. Although the Rio Summit was heralded as a great success, critics, however, point out that many of the agreements made in Rio have not been realized regarding such fundamental issues as fighting poverty and cleaning up the environment.
