Dee is usually a quiet girl, but decided to speak in front of 300 people to tell them what they could do to protect endangered whale sharks.
Dee is one of the many young people participating in programmes sponsored by the Education Environmental Center (EEC), which offers many courses on the environment and wildlife protection. Dee said whale sharks could not speak up for themselves, so she had to speak for them, said actor and director Alex Rendell, Thailand s Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and founder of the EEC.
