Every human being has equal value. Every single one.
At the United Nations General Assembly, I challenged a world that still decides whose lives deserve protection and whose suffering can be ignored.
No race is superior. No people are disposable. Until we honour that truth, "everywhere is war" remains a warning we have failed to heed.
What the world needs now is love, with the courage to confront injustice and defend our shared humanity.
Love and a little kindness. For everyone.

Waste collecting vehicles should also be colour coded. Electric and electronic waste can be treated as a special category with additional color like yellow. Enforce EPR regulations.
Great learnings @#GBS2024.
