Question

Teenager Christiana Tugwell and a small band of fellow school-age environmentalists have spent the past five months fighting proposals(提案) being put forward by the local developer, Countryside Residentials, to build 66 expensive separate houses in an area of woodland. They have received support at their protest(抗议）camp from other people who want to save the wood and the wildlife it contains. Christiana said:

"I began organizing the local campaign when I realized just how many local people were against the developments. They were writing letters of protest to the government but this was simply not enough So in order to p己it more pressure on the government and to raise national awareness, I started camping on the development site. I was the ring-leader and had to make some friends join me. They did not like sleeping rough and neither did I, but something had to be done. "

"My mum's first reaction was 'are you sure you want-to do this?' After the first week she sent some friends to try to make me come home. They said I'd get into trouble, but I was determined to stay. I even spent three nights at the camp on my own. Even though she wan-ted me home, mum was always supportive and even brought us vegetarian sausages. "

“Mum and I don't always see eye to eye on everything. But we agree that as long as what I want to do is not completely foolish, she lets me do it. She worries about possible violence from the people trying to drive us away and so do L I don't want to worry her, but stopping the development is more important. "
