Wangari Maathai's speech at World Forum Lille 2008 - VO

[@justiceitself]

This is the first time I find out about this amazing woman and I'm teary eyed from her strength and dedication. What an inspiring woman.

[@hassanmamohirbo5059]

You remain my inspiration Professor Maathai your unmatched contribution to the conservation of Environment, Peace and democracy shall forever be remembered. RIP

[@MJ-ye7dd]

She was and she remains to be my role model

[@angiearchie6162]

Listening to this woman is always so refreshing, what i have found so profound in her speech is,"Africa is the richest continent yet it has the poorest people, something is not tallying up." when you think about our soil so fertile, our earth filled with gems,our water sources are plenty our forest are green and our air is fresh. Then you remember the abject poverty our people are living, you realize her statement is true. We can do better.

Prof Maathai did a lot to educate and to protect for our planet. May many of us learn from her.

Wonderful Speech Prof Wangari Maathai. You continue to speak to us from your Grave.

[@maureenkihika9081]

THANK YOU PROF. MAATHAI. WE REMEMBER YOU AND THE WORK YOU DID FOR MOTHER EARTH.

[@Ukversuskenya]

A strong, tenacious, most kind and beautiful brave woman. May she rest in the light, now as she tends the garden of Eden. You're truly missed mama Wangari Maathai. I was too young to understand what you stood for and all I knew was, you were saving the forests and of course the green belt Nobel prize you won. Now I'm here following through your journey and tributes and I'm so emotional as I ponder what a strong pillar you were for our beloved country and the world. You will forever be remembered mama.

O dear Wangari we are thankful to you you teachers how to plants trees

[@upendasana7857]

God bless you Waangari,unfortunately many of us have been slow to catch up or fight as hard as you for these justices you speak of.I really hope the world is still listening and that the changes you speak of will become more evident after this "corona crisis"has passed and we can get on with the job in hand,looking after our planet and each other.
