When I was a small boy, I took my pledge as an American, to save and faithfully defend from waste the natural resources of my country, its air, soil and minerals, its forests, waters and wildlife.
Quando eu era criança, fiz um juramento de, como norte-americano,  salvar e defender do desperdício os recursos naturais do meu país, a atmosfera, solo e minerais,  as florestas, águas e vida selvagem.
