  • 0:40.. Ugh! Just wana slap the rude dude. You think your important cos your in a suit?! Smh.

  • She's afraid to breathe because she doesn't know what chemicals are in the ozone? She should probably get help or something, I don't think it is healthy to have a fear of breathing.

  • The greater the gap between the rich and the poor, the more detached society becomes and thus the likelihood of more misjudge decisions are made.History stand as testimony to such a vicious cycle where revolutions are incited by the masses of the poor or deprived which cannot stand their quality of life (if any to speak of). The simple truth is, there is no easy solution, or maybe simply no solution to this question (of life), just as animals cannot overcome their instincts easily.

  • out of the mouth of babes this is a real in your face speech good for her.

  • I think I might have let one out while the rest of the word was silent. Sorry.

  • 1:16

  • I'm afraid to drink water.

  • @hannahunney then stop

    

  • But what you do makes me cry...

  • She believes in a degree of global utopia that just cannot be. Furthermore the examples/ solutions she brings forth are unrealistic at best. This is nice for a school project but certainly does not have the necessary level of depth and thought gone into it to reach the UN level, and in this I understand why it falls on deaf ears.

  • @001720BC Second best speech i've ever heard after charlie chaplins final speech in great dictator. Although i'm only a child and therefore i do not know greed the way you do. Maybe it's time to think in different patterns? The world is dying without doubt.

  • Why can´t I have the chance to speak infront of those people

  • I silenced her in a lot less than that. Sounds like a classroom report by a causehead 4th grader.

  • What year is this?

  • @dboyuc check the date bro

  • @perseused you don't need to know someone personally to agree or disagree with them, you don't have to know a suffering family in Africa to want to help them, you don't have to know a criminal personally to disagree with them, and we don't know our president personally before we vote for them.x

  • i....agree....

  • She should run for president...

  • TRUE DAT!

    

  • SHIT

  • If we could bring this video up again, maybe they will listen, and maybe they won't.

  • Comment removed

  • Well, children always speaks the truth, if just the adults could see that instead of the money and power.....

  • simply amazing!

  • plenty for the needy

    not enough for the greedy

    death for the needy

    wealth for the greedy

    long term for the needy

    short term for the greedy

    life is short for the needy

    death is far from the greedy

    the world will died

    and so will the greedy.

  • 12... fucking... million...VIEWS?!?!? What the hell! and this is heard by those 12 almost 13 million people that have seen this video. so she didnt say it to a group of deaf people.

  • It's a crying shame her words fell on deaf ears. I guarantee that many officials in the audience were wondering what they were going to eat for dinner… This world is a hopeless cause…

  • People that heard it there, and seeing it now, hah, who really changed? Besides you, who talks about this seriously to there friends, who tries to spread this message? People will keep killing mass amounts of chickens, cows, pigs, etc. Keep destroying trees. et cetera. et cetera. et cetera. Do we really need war to realize that we want peace?

  • @XeenWoozy Do you know anyone personally who has ever started a war?

  • @perseused Hitler? Stalin? Mahmoud Ahmadinejad probly going to? Lack of knowledge, our greed, makes people poor, people will have steal, get mad, kill, etc. But I mean do we really need to actually be in someone shoes, to be poor, be miserable to help one another?

  • @XeenWoozy you know these people personally?

  • she's so right, they should show this on tv on every channel and see how people react. And to see if some people can stop being lazy asses and help the world!

  • @redhead3600 Do you include your parents in this lazy ass line-up?

  • Doyou think she wrote her speech?

  • @perseused no way

  • what kind of idiots would dislike this speech over 4,000 times

  • I wish all the people in the world die. That would make the world a better place.

  • @DikkiTimo Really!? well your messed up.

  • @DikkiTimo I have a solution for you. be our leader and go first.

  • shes really good......

  • well atlest she tried! you guys are so immature

  • shut up u little bitch. the planet is fine.

  • @specialtaskforceswat

    you're fucking retarded.

  • i thought i was really gonna see the world go quiet for the first time, and for five minutes, damn i didnt expect this

  • fuck it, 95% of the people in the world dont care about wats going on, and i bet 99% of these views of this video jus caught peoples attention cause of the title, i stoped watching after a few seconds, u know how many people spoke about this same crap u have? many, young and older people! any changes yet? nope! so fuck this world and just do u (u need to face a couple of blunts and watch how u wont give a fuck)

  • @abrahamg007 Every step towards social progress- women's suffrage, racial equality, gay rights, etc. was started by just a few people caring enough to speak up & having the tenacity to keep it up and not stop caring to slowly gain more support from others who come to care & form a group & become more widespread and influential until things actually change and get done. Being a jaded prick is what our rulers and oppressors want us to be so they can keep fucking us for their own selfish agendas.

  • teared me up. Very, very inspiring.

  • HEar hear!!!! May we come to the transition soon! Let there be an end to most of human's suffering!

  • 4 years on fuck all has happened, our race will eventually die out. Our race was doomed from the start

  • What a good speech.

  • Well said!!

  • Did anybody notice the absence of the 5 minutes silence in aw??

    i did.

    I hate these bullshit utube titles that are clearly wrong

  • @pasusuel I noticed it... while she was speaking, was about 5 mins ._. how about you screw off.

    

  • they just pretend to listen...nothing changed...

  • shoot me dead, but i vote for her.

  • shoot me dead, but i vote for her.

  • this is a very good message..but the truth of the matter is we are all guilty of greed and of only caring and benefiting ourselves., and not giving a damn about our planet and the its animals...try to do your part and too. if this video doesnt make US think a little more about our planet and environment nothing will...thanks

  • im 19 and i agree on what she is saying yes adults need to change ther ways but so do we my nephew is everything to me id give my own life just for him and seeing as we are being affected by the generations befor us we need to start realizeing that what we do today and tommorrow has an effect on the generations that are even born yet instead of blaming the problem on the previous generations. us teens in the world should change our ways for to better the future for our children & grandchildren

  • and i thought she sings or dance... i watch britains got talent again... greetings from germany

  • Wow! Is all I can say! Because it makes me feel to be silenced also and listen, really listen.....

  • Humanity has not reached the precipice, the breaking point of humanity. We are animals that have devolved to some form of ourselfs so arrogant that we think our lives dwarf the millions of animals we kill every year and species we wipe out. the sad truth is there are to many people and not enough land. There are many ways we could fix this world but most would consider them unethical and devilish so this world can only get worse. but hey had to end sometime right?

  • were here to eat the sandwich

  • were here to eat the sandwitch

  • That was by far the most powerful speech i"ve heard. The sad thing about it is, those politicians sitting in the audience listening, need to revisit this page on a daily basis. From the looks of thing now, I see it went in one ear, and directly out the other. Yes, They heard her, BUT WERE THEY LISTENING.

  • Amazing!

  • THINK OF THE CHILDREN!! LOL .. we really need to take the environment out of the hands of politics, and give it back to science

  • Admit it, every time she said "come" you smiled..

  • power comes from sproken words,dont care were u from,or what u did,everyone wants the same,be loved!! help urself,help others,dont let them devide u,0neness=love in pure form!!

  • I think those of you who are saying "What's the point? Nothing will ever get done about it", are not realizing something. This young girl, and many other young people like her, "ARE" the future. They are the future leaders, politicians and holders of other powerful positions. Positions that will allow them to make the changes they feel are absolutely necessary. It's just up to the rest of us to make sure we are smart enough to put them in those positions, so they can do what must be done.

  • Too long;Didn't watch. 

  • @STPconditions Then why'd you click on the video?

  • @STPconditions you really missed out on youtube gold.

  • she is a blowhard. offers no ideas except shame. how many kids her age would kill her just for juicy fruit or that she is not Sunni or bloods or serb. Those killers have little regard for enviro. when they have less for there fellow man.Canadas drs are free if if you meet the criteria. If you dont you head to the USA and pay

  • What a brave, inspiring insightful girl. Pitty the hall was nearly empty. She should get a medal.

  • to LOL very hard

    1.press cc

    2.press transcribe audio

    3.wait till 4:00 - 4:20

  • they're all clapping, but wont change anything..

  • *She silences the world for 5 minutes...*

    2012 - Present

    Life is still crumbling down.

  • Who cares?!

    Most everyone is a CONSUMER.

    Most everyone is going to CONSUME.

    You really think having a couple million people saying"Stop putting bad stuff in the air!"is going to change anything?

    By the time we would even discover the fixes for these problems we would already be dead, leaving us with a shitty world,and passing on a better one,to people who will ruin it again.

    It's called History.It repeats itself. Learn it. We destroy everything we touch. So to we will do with the world.

  • @ShadowOfEnigma that is true, the only way to protect the world from being ruined is to kill all the humans on it.

  • It pisses me off that, even though her speech was well thought out, put together in a mature voice, and addressed many important issues, nothing will ever be done. It went in one ear and out the other, because these men and women have war and money on their minds and they don't give a flying fuck about the environment. They don't see these issues because they all live in glass houses, throwing stones and not caring whether or not it breaks, because they can just go out and buy a new one.

  • @TheWolfgirl121 Yeah these are the people who will eventually destroy this earth. Why don't we share our wealth with the ones who don't have anything when there is enough to go round. Yes it's all about money. She's only a child but she is so much wiser than all those suits sitting there pretending they know what they are doing. Having big salaries andthey talk a lot but do nothing... not if they can't get a profit out of it somewhere.

  • 70's pornstar at 5:48..

  • that was one of the greatest things i have ever seen in my life. it's too bad how little action actually gets taken.

  • this is 6 minutes long ... not 5 .... what trickery you speak!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I was moved by her message!

  • @allanchamp13 so was I....I moved onto another video after hearing what she said....

  • Thank you iArsenalArsenal,  ... because this is the worst

  • Good job great speechw

  • The girl are ARSENAL FC fan..

  • Um.. She really silenced the world for 6:42,

    I thought she was going to swallow a colt 45 and blow her head off towards thee end...

  • TA TA TA TA TA TADAYYYYYYYY JUNIOR!!!!!!!!

  • DID THEY FUCKING LISTEN? THEY DON'T EVEN CARE!!!! WHATS NEXT? KILL THEM ALL!!!!!

  • WTF Steven Jo? This is some deep shit, Yam!

  • @nintendude60 Look at the amount of shit we've destroyed in order to create more. Destroying millions of acres of forests and shit, just for a couple of malls and shit.

  • Proud to be Canadian.

  • this is boring

  • I know that many people watching this may not agree with what she says, and I've seen some comments go as far as to call her brainwashed or stupid. I understand that many people who watched this believe that she should just shut up.

    But the fact is that she, a young preteen girl, has perceived a problem that she believes must be fixed. She has seen people suffering, and she has done more to help them than most of us have done in our whole lives. She should be respected for that, not hated.

  • @MrSpudtastic In short, people are suffering, and she, at that young age, has done more to help them than I have, and that is shameful.

  • Her words were exactly how I feel, and the speech was well written. It's a shame to see that adults and the people running society fail to accept their own ignorance and priorities. It's funny to watch adults act much more immature and blind than the children they claim to be ignorant and stupid.

  • She is definately a brave girl to be up on stage in front of some pretty important people. Great job! I'm glad there are some people out there that care! :)

  • HAHAHHA THAT WAS FUNNY!!! DUMB CUNT LOLOLOLOL DEFORESTATION FOR LIFE!

  • @Troll4tehlulz you get off youtube

  • @Troll4tehlulz

    Get the hell outa here...

  • I feel disgusted with this world and myself because all we have ever done is destroy the world for our own good.

  • this is because humanity is a vile race that shouldnt exist

  • @TheGDleadcharles The answer is simple. Just end your life. I mean, you don't really want to be part of a vile race.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheGDleadcharles Well you can make a start and jump off a balcony ;)

  • @TheGDleadcharles

    so, you think other species would be different?

    If little bunnies and rabbits could get an advantage by horribly maiming another animal .... they would.

    its not humanity that is vile, its persons. persons are vile. you bloody self defeatist.

  • @TheGDleadcharles no that's not true if a bird will get intelligent it will do the same. it's the instinct of us that let do these things,It tells us to get and keep everything

  • The prophecy of 2012 should come true and wipe us all out entirely. All we're doing is taking and destroying everything. Our progression is the world's destruction.

  • those who oppose this girl will see the destruction of Earth and at your final momet of agony, you will realize that this girl is tryng to save our Earth, you dumb fucks. Our home should be our first priority, not money, not greed, not success. But UNITY. open you eyes this is not any mockery this is the truth we are killing ourselves by populating our universe with filth. We bacome lazy and too dependent on technology and along the way we lost touch with our inner benevolent humanity.

  • we humans claim we the smartest, we claim we all knowing...but our whole world is influenced by piles of paper...we overtook the world n populated the world with selfish and cold. nobody cares if animals dies beacause they have no speech...those arrogant will laugh at this marvelous girl...while many starve and dream as long as we have paper in our pockets who cares right? the ancients of our world appreciated our Earth, and carlessly we litter n destory our natural resources. think about it...

  • FREE DAISY GRAY - Visit my channel for details. Thanx everybody :)

  • Good speech but thru out history they where rich ppl being greedy and shit. Countries hating other countries. Like Korea and Japan they don't get along becuz what happen between them. I hate to say it but theirs going to be hates in the world. Ppl r going to care about themselves.

  • Cried :(

  • If human-being can realise the seriously things happen,if just once the sad thing wouldn't happened!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • There is hope!, unfortunatly too many empty seats in the room where she speaks. Thank progress and youtube for the spoken evolution soon to be. Human are not stupid in the least anywhere.

  • environmentalists are terrorists.they threaten to harm or kill people who own businesses they think are the cause of climate change.i blame government run schools for brainwashing them to think this

  • What do you people think is running this sight,magic?no its oil!the stuff u liberals says is responsible for global warming.yet u liberals still drive ur cars.fly on jetliners and live in homes that consume energy made from oil.you pollute everday and dont live by ur liberal beliefs!

  • She did not waste her breath, her words will mark one of many movements for environment awareness.

  • @TheCinisterSorrow you mean the next great con? The "Green Movement"? I hate to break it to you but as long as corporations are allowed to get away with murder by ALL governments nothing is going to change. The Gulf oil spill was very recent.

  • Wow if she saw this, this long ago that is saying something world...we really should get our act together we are ruining this beautiful world.

  • if what Severn Suzuki, a young Girl at age 13 said Brought you to Tears (like me right now) Please give this post a THUMBS UP!

    Seeing this video has made me a better person.

  • to those haters and those who disliked the video for god's sake, don't sit behind your computer yapping and hating, do you even have the courage to prove your arguments in any medias nor make a simple difference in your life to salvage something that could help others rather than just take things for granted? atleast the kid has the courage to give such a speech infront of those people, you do not.

  • @zeract Your defending an ethos/pathos video with quite frankly puddle-shallow logic used to back up its claims and your asking Us to prove our arguments?

    The burden of proof isn't even in our side of the court.

    That said, I can respect a desire to improve the world for everyone, and the courage to speak as she did: though I view her as an ignorant, brain-washed girl getting on a soapbox.

  • @zeract Hey sparky, how about proving that global warming is man made. I mean, some of the leading proponents have already admitted they falsified the data. Making a sweeping accusation isn't really conducive to making changes, now is it?

  • I am absolutely speachless. 

  • She's from my era. I don't know what to say about 12-13 yr olders now.

  • If she rode a horse buggy or bike to all her public speeches instead of riding SUV's or flying on jetliners that consume oil and spew pollution i would give her credit.her traveling causes more danger to the environment than all of us combined

  • She told them

    

  • Makes my stomach hurt so fucking bad. She wasted 5 minutes that shell never get back. Very inspirational speech though, Kudos.

  • this video gave me coldchills it is so true we need change.

  • how did she waste her breath

    

  • @hotboy4231 People are saying she wasted her breath because even though she tried so hard to make a difference, humans haven't done much to improve their ways.

  • " You cant bring back animals that are extinct" You may want to rethink that.

  • @wargarkaz lol

  • This speech is true. To bad no one will do anything to stop any of it.

  • OMG what she says is so true!! animals,air,earth land fills! Omg and the part she my childern may not see the true world!!

  • Hippy. 

  • Now put Hans Zimmer's "Time" behind the speech of this video and it will make it even better.

  • More people have died then live on this earth now.if all the population of earth were lined up front to back,side to side it would only measure seven square miles.research it people.you cannot deny it

  • Folks this planet has been hit by world ending meteors,ice ages,plagues diseases,during the 40,s&50,s this world was bombarded with nuclear bomb tests.yet this earth still survives.and will always after we are gone.we are but a small pebble on a huge rock

  • @Ricovali Wait a minute! You have to ask this little brat if that is accurate. Because we know she is an expert on all the questions. Don't forget, she's sinnnnnnncere! It doesn't matter she doesn't have a clue what she's yapping about, she's sincere...awwww.

  • 4:10 - 3:45

    Here's your answer:

    Because a strong man, who has known power all his life, will lose respect for that power. But a weak man knows the value of strength. And knows compassion.-Dr. Abraham Erskine; Captain America

  • sadly we are the most destructive and selfish species

  • i bet this girl works for the EPA now haha.

  • i was listening to dubstep and then i got here

  • THUG LIFE ! I need her on my squad

  • It was good, but she's just wrong in so many cases. Kinda ruins it, sorrybox.

  • @nonamer88 Argue your case.

  • @Calempaine You can't be serious?

  • @nonamer88 Of course I'm serious. You claim that she's wrong but provides no arguments at all and I would like to hear those arguments.

  • you spelled of wrong, and yes. She is right. Y'all ADULTS are dumb, listen to those who care!

  • is it wrong to hope she died off cancer?

  • @MatterTP ass

  • @MatterTP Yeah and completely retarded as well.

  • i dont get it

  • ...and nothing happpend

  • I could sit here and list all of the things in our environment that are improving, such as the fact that our ozone hole over the antarctic has been shrinking due to regulations of what factories can put out into the atmosphere, but I won't, instead people like this little girl who mean well waste their time preaching to people who really won't do anything about it, plus her ignorance is astonishing, you give a poor and most likely uneducated child a ton of money, I don't think he'll share.

  • Flood! I'll get high and w8 for giant tsunami !

  • Trying to fix the environment now is like giving up smoking once you've been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. We didn't listen to her and then and we're not listening now. I have dozens of plastic bags from the supermarket piling up in my kitchen cupboard. I drive to work alone. I leave almost every appliance on standby. I should be more proactive but I guess I've grown just as apathetic as the men and women who sat quietly through that beautifully written speech.

  • I would completely agree with the girl; she is giving this speech with good intent. However, world hunger, global warming, etc etc cannot be changed by these men. People can slow down the inevitable decline of our world only if the entirety of the world's population were to reform. Unfortunately, total cooperation is beyond human ability.
