ANGE'S THOUGHTS

http://www.888dag.com/As I wrote in my blog the other day I visited the home of some awesome girls who have cerebral paulsy and live together in a house. One of the girls emailed me her speech as she thought it would be heard properly through her Pathfinder. Footage of her can be viewed on 888dag.com after 8th September.
Here are the words.
If I had four minutes to change the world I would put up some advertisement. About losing weight around the schools, hospitals Medical centres, on TVs, universities, TAFES, and shops because ther's not enough. Advisement about losing weight also, it would be special programs. In schools telling everyone about they do some exercises and eat healthy watch their weight and make sure that they don't get too thin or become more obese being obese will make them have other health issues like mental health illnesses. I think that the government should put a lot more funding into mental health because it's slowly increasing if I were going to be the next minister for health I would try to put funding into mental health issues. Sometimes people who have mental health issues they often are lonely because people dont understand them and we should teach the children who go to school about mental health illness issues because if the children know about the mental health they wont alienate those poeple who have mental illness issues.
Enviroment. I would make sure that people are using Environmental vehicles aand use environmental barreries in radios, laptops, microwaves and vacuum cleaners. If we all start to use the solar paddles and gas instead of electricity we will start to save the world from green house gases. Also, we should have a 60 minutes total black out. People shouldn't have any electricity in that hour. I think that we should have that hour on a regular basis across the world at the same time, the world will save a bit electricity.
Poverty. I think that all companies should sponsor a child from countries such as Africa because if all companies around the world sponsored a child, there wouldn't be any child or family or community living in poverty. Instead of having America spending millions of dollars making wars, I think that they should send the United Nations into developing countries to help those people who need food, shelter, water, education and Safety.
Wars. It is bad that we keep having Wars they're only killing innocent people.
Disabilities. I think that there should be a community access services for people with very very
severe disabilities around the world because there are a lot of people just sitting at home and wasting their life away by doing nothing. Of course, some people are doing sport like boccia, wheelchair basketball, swimming, tennis and track and field. Of course in africa people with very very severe disabilities have a little short life expectancy and the government wouldn't put funding in supports people with disabilities because they have bigger problems to attend to like poverty, growing population and kills.
