Dear Daughter,

Today is May 2nd, 2022. I am in a Global Environment class in my second year of college, and we have learned so much about climate change and the concerns that we are facing. Today I am making a promise to try to live as sustainable as I can to ensure that you can experience so many wonderful parts of the world, like the trees, the flowers, the plants, and so much more.

I’m sitting in the grass on the quad right now, with the wind slightly blowing and it is so peaceful. I hope that in 2050 you aren’t learning about the problems that can arise if we don’t make changes, and I hope those changes don’t happen. I know I can do my part by reducing my carbon footprint, saving energy, and making sustainable choices for the food I eat and the clothes I wear. I can invest in the choices I make in the present so that you can have a great future.
