Hope of Wood
Today before this court I, the little turtle Gladys, come to defend the animals of such a selfish being, he
puts his own wellbeing over the others.
I’m 800 years old and
I have seen a lot.
During all this time
we have stumbled upon many humans, they have robbed and murdered and
they have destroyed everything many, many times.
My home, Galápagos
islands, overflowed with life and joy. Where the singing of the birds was heard,
now there is only silence. Where the dolphins were swinging on the waves,
now there is only desolation.
The sea, the earth are
covered by oil.
The man is selfish,
appears in te middle of the night and devastates everything in his path.
But the land does not belong to them. He is only a small part of her.
What man does not understand is that what
he does to th Earth, in the long run, he does to himself. And when the land is destroyed the animals will leave or they will die, will
rule the world only until lost and desolate. He will also be erased from the face of
the Earth.
But not all human
beings are bad. 500 years ago, I surffered an accident, my Shell was broken and I was about to die. A person picked me up and made a mother’s shell of Wood and
thanks to that person I’m here telling you my story.

weeks later the little turtle Gladys passed away. People just love how she was. We al reflect on
her words. They called it the HOPE OF WOOD.
