In 2050, I will still be fighting against climate change. I feel that it’s not only my duty, but rather my destiny.

We are fighting for a shared cause, inspired by our strong and unwavering dedication to preserve the beauty and wonder of our natural world for our children, our grandchildren and their children, and for countless generations to come.

I will promise to help climate change as much as I can.

My mistake was thinking I needed to give you more to be a good Mom. Recently your aunt asked me what my favorite toy was growing up. I gulped, I didn’t have one- it was the outdoors, sliding down a ravine of leaves with my Dad, skiing and camping. Today is October 12th, 2021 and I am still going to be giving you a lot, it’s going to look a little different – love, experiences, education and a healthy planet.

Siamo nel 2017 e vi assicuro che sto facendo tutto il possibile per rendere questo pianeta un posto migliore.

Tonight at bedtime, you asked, seemingly out of nowhere, “why are the glaciers disappearing?”

As you look through your window, I hope you will see a bright future. I hope you dream big, and that you have the courage, drive, and fortitude to do everything you can to achieve those dreams.

Vivamos a vida com intensidade, Não nos importando a localidade.

Most importantly, I hope you live in a world where science is taken seriously and fact is clearly distinguished from fiction.

I’m not allowed to talk about climate change around family; as my mom warned me, “climate change is not something that people think about in Mississippi.” But I’m worried for my family’s future.

I will do all that I can, and hope my fellow inhabitants join my pursuit, to nurture this planet.
