I will keep trying Kaydence, I promise. And I hope we can look back together in 2050 and smile, knowing that our Earth is healthy once again.

I don’t know your name
or even if you’re alive,
but I’m doing all I can
to make sure you survive.

I’m your great- great grandmother
who lived a century ago
in a world far different
from the one you must know.

I look at my baby niece today. The newest member of our family, just 3 days old. What will be left for her and her grandchildren?

In writing this letter to you, I am searching for ways to make my connection and commitment to you more present in my current experience

My heart is an ocean of love for all the children facing a life of climate catastrophe.

I will keep the air clean so everyone can see the sunset.

I want you to be able to bring your kids to Tahoe and experience the same clarity that you had as a child.

Your path will only be as clear tomorrow as we have made it for you today.

You ask insightful questions, and together we learn about the mysterious world we inhabit.

It’s scary, this is the stuff you see in movies about the end of the world.
