Dear Brady,

I love you to the moon and back buddy! I have promised you, and all of the children on this earth, to make this planet a cleaner and safer place with every breath I take and every move I make. I will work everyday to combat climate change for your today, for your tomorrow!

I want you to enjoy the very same wondrous beaches and mountains in Virginia that I grew up exploring and loving. I want you to continue to plant flowers and vegetables in our gardens with the assurance that you are breathing clean air whilst enjoying the outdoors, without the fear of breathing coal ash from our nearby Lamberts Point Coal Terminal.

I will work with legislators to pass legislation that supports America’s Clean Power Plan, ensuring we bring renewable energy like offshore wind and solar to VA. I will implement community gardens and recycling programs to our communities. I will protect you from the dangerous chemicals in our everyday lives! I will make this world a beautiful and safe tomorrow for you Brady.

I love you!
Mama

Dear Tomorrow,

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.
 

To what we’ve overcome.

The first step would be in overcoming ourselves. Because whether we end up fading into obscurity, or thriving in prosperity, we will overcome ourselves.
