David Suzuki web (I made it)

David Takayoshi Suzuki was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada on March 24, 1936. David lived during the Second World War. The Government sold his family’s dry-cleaning business because his family was Japanese and at that time the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbour and the Canadians were scared that the Japanese would bomb Canada. So the Government sent him, his mother and his two sisters to a camp in Slocan, British Columbia. While they were in the camp his mother gave birth to his new baby sister Dawn. Before most of his family where sent to the camp his father was sent to a labour camp in Solsqua two months earlier. When the war was over, his family was forced to move to the east part of Canada. They moved to Islington, Leamington, and London, Ontario. David Suzuki went to Mill Street Elementary School and then when he was in grade 9 he went to Leamington Secondary school.

He loved nature and his favourite subject in school was science so he became an environmentalist. David Suzuki has never made any mistakes in his life. The lessons that young people can learn are caring for the environment, the power of one person to make changes and being such a great role model. In David Suzuki’s life you can judge the quality of his life by his enemies because most of his enemies are oil companies or large businesses that produce toxins in the air. Well David Suzuki encourages many people because he believes that everybody can make a difference in the world. David didn’t follow any beliefs or rules in his life to guide him to where he is today.

What it means to be a hero is that you are not selfish. You care for others and you are a good example for young people, so you are not just a movie star. You actually do nice things for others.

Everybody has a hero and that includes David Suzuki. David’s hero was actually his dad because David says that his dad introduced him to nature.
