The Nature of the World’s Women
QUOTE
“It is in the nature of the world’s women that they, above all,
must be concerned not just with today, but with tomorrow.
Our duty, our responsibility, is to bring the new generations into the world, to nurture and to raise them and to prepare them for the years that lie ahead.
Naturally, we are, therefore, always concerned about the world in which our children will live, and into which they will bear our grandchildren and subsequent generations.
The resources of this world are finite;
they need to be used with care and to be preserved for the generations to come.
Conventional sources of energy are rapidly depleting.
If we do not take care to identify and to use alternative, renewable sources of energy,
then the future for our long term development will be bleak indeed.”
