I hope that people are still enjoying the wonders that nature has to offer.

I feel deeply that it is my moral obligation as your Mom to protect your future and allow you to inherit a clean and healthy planet.

If we could all slow down, look around and connect: with each other, the Earth, the sky, the plants and rocks and animals, then maybe we can all remember to treat everyone and everything with respect and live in love.

Sweetie, you deserve clean air, water and soil. You deserve to thrive in an environment that supports you.

I’ll be here to tell you all the ways I have fought for the health of our home, and fought to protect all of the wide, open spaces for you to run in. When you’re old enough, we can fight together.

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.

The environment is important – take care of your actions to not destroy it starting from now.

I promise that I shall continue to do all that is within my capabilities to leave you a world where there is fairness and justice.
