Zero Ten Twenty

For twenty years, the producers of LIFE followed the lives of 11 children born in different countries around the world in 1992 -- the year of the first Rio Earth Summit, where world leaders signed up to a blueprint for a greener, fairer world. In this series LIFE catches up with the children -- now on the threshold of adulthood -- in Brazil, China, India, Kenya, Latvia, Norway, Papua New Guinea, South Africa, England and the US. Their stories constitute a unique diary of what it's been like to grow up in a fast-changing, 21st century world, and how globalization and the Earth Summit have impacted their lives.
