Since 1989, when his radio program It's a Matter of Survival premiered in Canada, David Suzuki has been a leader in the Canadian environmental movement. Today, the David Suzuki Foundation continues to be a voice for the environment through many initiatives, including a Climate Change Team and a green tips blog entitled The Queen of Green, which even includes how-to-videos about green living. Dr. Suzuki is also the author of numerous books including a one just published in September, entitled The Legacy: An Elder's Vision for a Sustainable Future.One initiative of the foundation was to create "David Suzuki's Nature Challenge" which consists of ten simple ways we can all reduce our impact on the Earth.
