As I write this, I consider giving up as it sometimes seems that all is lost. But then I think of you.

Muita Coragem e força para você enfrentar todos os desafios que virão, pois são com eles que crescemos.

Young people are making a lot of noise and politicians are now listening.

I am working with 350.org on shutting down the coal and unconventional gas industries in our country because I cannot think of a more direct way to protect you, the food, water and biodiversity we all love and rely on.

The world is facing some serious crises right now as Viral pandemic and war situation between Ukraine and Russia.

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

There are so many more things that we can do together to help our Earth from the damage that has been done, and I am so excited to teach you.

Please know that I have tried very hard to be one of those people, to even make the smallest of changes in order to improve the world for you and your future.

You are young and have a rich future ahead of you. I am retired and aiming for a high quality of cultural life and comfort with whatever time remains to me. I do not want to see a world whose elders sacrifice your future for their short-term needs and personal gain. So it’s up to you and me to speak out.

While I will work my hardest to create any positive change I can, you must continue this quest. You cannot give up hope, and you must always remember that the beauty on this Earth is worth saving.
