After watching JD Russo's TED talk, the most important thing that spoke out to was the fact that even after we have knowledge about a problem, we do not seem to care enough. His talk made me question myself: "why don't I ever act on the issues that I see our society face?". Like JD mentioned, the youth of today has all the knowledge possible through access to technology, despite such benefits, we do not take action and this is our worst mistake. It is up to us to stand-up, engage with one another, communicate about issues in our society and act to make improvements. We should not reply on the elders to do the work for us, because this is our time, our life and we need to take charge and give back. The youth of today needs to overlook indifferences, show more concern for the environment and society as a whole and further take immediate action because as we all have heard, "even the tiniest change/contribution can make the biggest difference". My passion is saving the environment. I believe that everyone must work together, show concern and contribute to the actions being taken to restore our deteriorating environment; because believe it or not, the future of the planet rests in our hands. This is our time, our life and our world; let's make it a better place for everyone. The youth of today owns the future and we have the knowledge, ability and responsibility to make the difference, because, "we must be the change, we wish to see in the world"- Gandhi.
