We are fighting for a shared cause, inspired by our strong and unwavering dedication to preserve the beauty and wonder of our natural world for our children, our grandchildren and their children, and for countless generations to come.

Most importantly, I hope you live in a world where science is taken seriously and fact is clearly distinguished from fiction.

People are an amazing race and, if we have the will, I believe we have the ingenuity and resources to fix the harm we’ve done.

Tenho muito orgulho da minha função (agente de fiscalização ambiental do Acre) pois é através dela que posso dar um pouco do meu suor, para que no futuro ambos possam ter um lugar melhor para viver.

I can feel the change happening — many people are working to transform the world.

I hope that we manage to change the system really soon, while there is still time. So that you are not left with the mess, and trying to fix something that you didn’t cause. I hope we figured out a way to be kind, and caring for others who will suffer more than us. A way to let go of the greed and look at ways we can help others rather than take from them.

When the worst consequences of climate change still feel far away today, or the barriers to acting on climate change seem steep today, I do not think about today. I think about you, and your world when you are my age.

My desire is for clean air, clean water, rich soil, and healthy nutritious food for you and all children always everywhere.

Be fearless – do not be afraid to talk to each other and do not be afraid to fail.

Don’t ever let anyone tell you your actions don’t matter. Every single thing you do matters. You matter.
