3rd Paper
The hardest part of the 3rd paper is what to write about. Though it was easy for me, for I had committed earlier in the year to writing a writing guide for Mr. Carney. To "inspire" us Mr. Carney had shown us various videos and pictures. Some showing humanity rising against the most dire situations. it is suggested to write about something you are passionate about. The 3rd paper is suppose to be enjoyable (as horrible as it seems). Your idea should be sustainable, renewable, and socially just. It can be a solution to a problem or just a solution. Because you don't a need a problem for a solution. Most of your paper should be about the solution, you may BRIEFLY explain the problem but mostly talk about the solution.

Severn Suzuki
Raised in Vancouver and Toronto, Severn Cullis-Suzuki has been camping and hiking all her life. When she was 9 she started the Environmental Childrens Organization (ECO), a small group of children committed to learning and teaching other kids about environmental issues. They were successful in many projects before 1992, when they raised enough money to go to the UN's Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. Their aim was to remind the decision-makers of who their actions or inactions would ultimately affect. The goal was reached when 12 yr old Severn closed a Plenary Session with a powerful speech that received a standing ovation.
