I was one
of the young Spanish “Let’s Take Care of the Planet”- participants who were elected
to participate in COY11. Since the moment I knew I was one of them and that
I was travelling to Paris in order to make the message from the youth of my country
heard by people from all over the word, I got very excited.
One of my biggest dreams was going to come true! I had never heard of COY11 before and I didn’t know that our voice was really going to be important to adults!
Suddenly came the attacks in Paris and my “near reality” was again a dream and I got sad...
But then I
thought “Why am I sad?”
So, I
started to spread the word in my new school, asking my friends to tell their other
friends how to pollute less the world... I made many conferences in my new
school and made people change their mind.
Maybe, I couldn’t
travel to Paris and make our common voice heard, but I can make my voice heard.
So…if it’s not now, when? If not us, who?
Alone we go
faster, but together we go further.
