         <description><![CDATA[<div>Beatriz Gyle Cabusora <br>Grade IV-Matiyaga<br><br>Liz Chicaje was born in 1982 into the indigenous community of Boras de Pucaurquillo in the Pebas District of Peru's Loreto Region. She belongs to the Newat (sparrowhawk) clan. When she was a child, she was brought up in the forest where she learnt to appreciate the importance of nature and the wild animals. As she grew older, the native communities living in the area were increasingly threatened by illegal logging and mining. After deciding to take on the task of fighting for the well-being of these communities, she developed her leadership skills and in 2013 sought to become mayor of the Pebas district. Although she did not win, she became more familiar with the problems of the people in the district. Thanks to her work, in 2014 she was elected president of FECONA, a federation of native Ampiyacu communities, providing an opportunity for collaboration with other native federations in the area. She worked towards the preservation of the area surrounded by the Napo, Putumayo and Amazon rivers neighbouring Colombia and Brazil. As a member of the Committee for the Categorization of the Yaguas Reserved Zone, she worked towards the development of the Yaguas National Park in which the native communities could be integrated and protected.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liz_Chicaje#cite_note-fzs-5"><sup><br></sup></a><br></div>]]></description>

Maathai was educated in the United States at Mount St. Scholastica College (now Benedictine College; B.S. in biology, 1964) and at the University of Pittsburgh (M.S., 1966). In 1971 she received a Ph.D. at the University of Nairobi, effectively becoming the first woman in either East or Central Africa to earn a doctorate. While working with the National Council of Women of Kenya, Maathai developed the idea that village women could improve the environment by planting trees to provide a fuel source and to slow the processes of deforestation and desertification. The Green Belt Movement, an organization she founded in 1977, had by the early 21st century planted some 30 million trees.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Jai Luthor L. Escobia<br>Grade 4-Matiyaga<br><br><strong>Von Hernandez</strong> is a leading environmental activist from the Philippines. He was Executive Director of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenpeace_Southeast_Asia">Greenpeace Southeast Asia</a> (GPSEA) from 2008 to 2014, where he led the environmental group's programs and operations in the Southeast Asian region. Prior to that, he served as Campaigns Director for the organization, and was responsible for driving the group's campaigns in Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines on a number of issues including climate change, forests, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_agriculture">sustainable agriculture</a> and toxics pollution. Currently, he serves as Development Director for Greenpeace International.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Von Hernandez is a former literature professor from the Philippines, drew the line at another lucrative export from the developed world: mountains of trash. Across Asia, waste incinerators pump out clouds of dioxin and other harmful chemicals that come from processing imported garbage. It's a highly profitable business for waste companies, but the onslaught of pollutants can wreak havoc on local health. He became aware of the Philippines' garbage problem in 1995, when he started working for Greenpeace. Every day the capital, Manila, creates 6,000 tons of trash, much of which festers in massive dumps where street children make a living picking through the ooze. In 2000, a giant landfill collapsed during a downpour, killing at least 200 people. Some government authorities called for waste incinerators to be built to eradicate the trash eyesores; as a side benefit, the Philippines could profit from burning imported trash from the industrialized world. But Hernandez's campaign quashed such plans. Even slum dwellers now know that dioxin from waste incineration can cause birth defects, while the toxic matter can poison future generations if it makes its way into the groundwater.<br><br></div>]]></description>
