Maritza Morales Casanova: The New Noah’s Ark | Nat Geo Live


when I starred as Alyce Caron espanol
muchos good afternoon it’s a pleasure to
be here with your people say that our
community needs more scientists more
writers entrepreneurs and social leaders
but that’s why society should focus on
childhood allowing them to be
entrepreneurs from childhood so let’s
imagine that you are a child who wants
to be a baseball player what should you
do of course
practice and go to the baseball school
if you want to be a pianist or a
violinist you should go to the music
school if you as a child wants to be a
singer
there are places where you can be train
it but if you want to be an
environmentalist where can you receive
training there are no place there were
no places to go in 1995 I was 10 when I
decided to start doing something to help
grandmother earth I invited my friends
to meet after school and I told them
about environmental issues we wanted to
protect animals plants and humans and
dream it about reasonable movement
around the world our name was wound up
and stands for humans unite with nature
in harmony for beauty welfare and
willingness we discovered that the worst
environmental problem that the society
has to face is not pollution nor
extinction nor illegal trade
neither global warming the worst
environmental problem is the
of Education because this is the route
for all those problems but we as a group
with her face that our own challenge the
lack of credibility because of our age
fortunately and after 19 years we
survived it yeah and now we were focused
on education as our main element to
solve and to eradicate environmental
problems education is a continuous
process where a person acquires
knowledge awareness and skills to make
decisions acacia requires some
continuous time and effort and in fact I
am still astonish about why in my
country and in the world environmental
education is not included as a main
subject in skills curriculum when Mexico
is one of the mega-diverse countries in
the world natural resources are the
basis of way of our economy an education
is a tool to eradicate poverty if a
country has problems with the economy or
development this country can survive and
will have more time to solve it but if a
country has problem with it natural
resources or environment this country
will not have more time to solve it
because this is the basis for the health
development and grow their heritage and
their sovereignty so with my group in I
decided to found an nonprofit
institution in 2006 and now we were
focused in four different programs let’s
suit each one of them the first one is
methodologies to teach in a fun way
those topics that seem complex to
explain now thanks to the children
contribution we can approach them in an
easy and transcending way in fact
children
very creative thanks today ideas we have
generated books stories hand crafts and
games children show us every day the
best language to teach this was a more
full march to recognize the extremist
species in Mexico the 41 extinct species
when I say environmental education I
don’t refer to Natural Sciences I mean a
comprehensive vision of all the issues
around here you can see how we approach
what a culture biodiversity energy
environment and ecology humanitarian
culture and also laws in fact we have an
educational plan call it Monde ambient F
London be enters in Spanish stands for
change in environment it’s like a career
to be an environmentalist from childhood
during two years our child’s needs to
learn about this 17 main topics but the
information is according to their age
let’s toss the only one the number 14 to
organize fishing and sustainable
development a child is going to learn
about cross seasons fishing techniques
ecosystems for fishing conservation
native biodiversity and sustainable
aquaculture and then they can take
action because now they have a
comprehensive idea about how the actions
have a positive impact on their
communities the second program is about
courses with workshops where children
are teaching other children yes they are
training their peers during two years in
order to train them as environmental
instructors that’s why I say that they
are the heroes of our grandmother earth
because children hands may be small but
their heart and remains to save our
planet in fact children who have
participated in this program have
learned about how to respect me
sure how to respect environment but also
this program have changed at lifestyle
due to the mentorship activities there
are children who started their own
activities their own movements and they
have been awarded by the Mexican
authorities in fact we have met with the
last four presidents of Mexico the third
program is sustainable aquaculture
production system where we are repeating
native species like the Mayan apple
snail to the extent that our communities
are now more aware of the natural
resources they will be able to properly
use the native species and also to
reactivate their local economies and
finally the fourth program is ceiba
pentandra ceiba pentandra is the name of
the first high level environmental
educational training center in the world
in 2007 the city of Merida NATO’s Island
in 2012 well start the construction
thanks to the Mexico initiative of work
and the young laureates Rolex Award for
enterprise there were 500,000 dollars to
invest the law was to build only the 30%
of the construction but this year’s this
year we have a big challenge we need to
raise enough funds to complete the
construction only two million dollars
yeah and these are some areas that we
need to build we need some museums we
need an aquarium a library and an
experimental laboratory – but why save
open tundra is so important why there
are other Mexican states asking for
their own environmental team Park
because with a hundred percent of the
construction we will be able to receive
sixty four thousand children a year with
a successful methodology we can be an
ally for the educational system also
allow the space for young people
handicapped and
elderly with our expertise we can train
teacher and provide them methodologies
and materials – and also with our
expertise we can contribute to generate
the free textbooks for educational
system like this one for the curriculum
and this project can be replicated in
any place of Mexico or in the world now
I broke a new project and you’re going
to be the first ones you know about this
in cyber pentandra we Dre invented the
Noah’s Ark yes the northside we
reinvented in moments of crisis the
north are say that protected and rescued
wildlife all the living beings but now
our grandmother earth needs our support
needs to protect the living beings now
here are some future of the reinvented
ark develop it in ceiba pentandra the
first one is that this can cross
geographical borders another noble
future is that can adapt to the georgian
needs of harmonizing
the humans coexistence also this size
was redesign it so that all the tools
required for sustainable management can
be transported constructor or modified
within the arc this arc can improve
under adverse situations and some
contributions of this new earth is that
if we can activate it in distribute this
prototype around the world we will allow
a stronger human contributions also we
will ensure the protection of living
beings on brown and oceans
we can harmonize the coexistence of
cultures and we can save natural
resources but thanks to children’s ideas
in my organization we discovered that
with this reinvented art we can save the
most important species in the world
humans also we need your contributions I
don’t mean money although it is also
necessary I mean your ideas perseverance
and participation to consolidate it well
I think that it’s time to discover this
reinvented art are you ready okay this
is the the raine the integer yes all
this time I was talking about human
brains our brains are like art each time
that we make a decision to protect a
living being a plan human and animal we
are acting like an arc and this arc has
always have been there we only need to
consolidate it and to reactivate it we
only need to distribute this arc around
the world as much as we can that’s why
we need to consolidate ceiba pentandra
that’s why we need more environmental
educational training centers around the
world that’s why we need to train more
heroes of grandmother earth but we need
to work together decision-makers media
companies autorities we do need you see
that if we work united with these new
arcs we will ensure a prosperous and
harmonious and harmonious life for our
grand
