Here’s the biggest secret: I KNOW it will have. We may not realize how, but we have changed the world.

It’s never too late to make a difference. Our actions have very real consequences. We can educate ourselves, learn from our mistakes, and take action. We can hold companies like big oil and big plastic accountable for their negative impacts on the environment. We can educate ourselves and others about what causes climate change and what actions we as individuals can take to lower our carbon footprints.

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 promise you to keep trying, to keep educating, to keep pushing our elected officials to act and protect your health now and in the future.

I also hope that your previous prayers have been answered. The way you wanted to create green jobs for your fellow city dwellers have been fulfilled already.

I am smelling burning plastic!

If we could talk, I would not be able to bear your gaze as you ask: How could you, the people in a position to change the course of climate change, fail to act?

We need to rethink our consumption habits in order to reduce the impacts on the environment.

I can now see that the solutions are there, that a transition of the magnitude that is needed, is possible.

Mankind has always been able to deal with the greatest challenges it’s faced and this will not be the exception. My message to you is: find that passion and give it your all. ‘Till your legs give out.

And I know life more fully because of you whom I live on through.
