Those Of Us Who Have Been Privileged To Receive Education, Skills, And Experiences And Even Power Must Be Role Models For The Next Generation Of Leadership.

For Me, One Of The Major Reasons To Move Beyond Just The Planting Of Trees Was That I Have Tendency To Look At The Causes Of A Problem. We Often Preoccupy Ourselves With The Symptoms, Whereas If We Went To The Root Cause Of The Problems, We Would Be Able To Overcome The Problems Once And For All.

Sometimes When I Talk To Little Children I Remind Them Of The Fact That When I Was Growing Up Myself, I Used To Play With Frog Eggs And Tadpoles And I Used To Walk In The Field, I Used To Literally Copy Whatever My Mother Was Doing On The Land.

So It Is Extremely Important For Adults And Especially Those Who Are In Charge Of Cities To Make Sure That We Do Not Lose Touch With The Land And With The Environment. And Especially Our Children.
