I’ll be here to tell you all the ways I have fought for the health of our home, and fought to protect all of the wide, open spaces for you to run in. When you’re old enough, we can fight together.

I hope that the fervor that is building continues to build and spread and that the world has made progress to minimize the effects of our past actions.

I hope we can pass on a better place to live so that my grandchildren and their future children can enjoy the beauty of nature that our wonderful God has given us.

So, dear heart, I am doing everything I can as the situation worsens.

My goal was to help you grow into better citizens of our planet; to help you care about our natural world and to make everyday choices that reflect concern for our beautiful earth and our own health as well as encourage you to work together to make changes in our community.

As I write this, our world is slowly giving way to climate change.

One day ten or twenty years from now, when you look back from the future, you will be able to clearly see the entire path.

Fighting for a system that rewards care for people and planet over profit.

But being truthful, I know we are not yet on the path that will lead to the change that is needed; but it is visible.

It is today on March 6th, 2017 that you have made the decision to make a difference in this world.
