Parles

The babble filled the room. It had been quiet and restrained while the session was on. Everyone listened carefully to each speaker in turn. Teams of advisers passed notes back and forth to support their particular mouthpiece. Interpreters simultaneously babbled translations into dozens of languages and were heard by delegates through their individual earphones. Every uttered word was recorded in notes and considered immediately by over a hundred brilliant minds.


Now the morning break was taking place and the voices were relaxed and the room was filled with conversationalists. Hundreds of people talked in mostly groups of two’s or three’s. Some walked across the room and politely interrupted others to say hello to an old acquaintance or catch the ear of a needed ally. Others made small talk over the tea, coffee and croissants. They didn’t have long before the formal session resumed. There were scientists, researchers, campaigners and politicians. Today they were united by their efforts as Conservationists. All gathered and focused in a serious conversation at the UN to save the precious life on this beautiful planet.
