Don’t stop looking for adventures.

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

I vow that I will try to make a difference every day, so that you may enjoy the world as I have.

I love you and I care deeply about your future.

I asked you, the future , to help us as well, to preserve our only planet that can give us life, that can let us watch anime, go to the beach, smell flowers, run through the meadow, listen to our songs, be in a concert, and let us live.

We want your future family to enjoy the same beautiful places we enjoyed.

Talvez eu não esteja viva para ver alguma mudança, mas espero que vocês vejam e tenham um mundo melhor em 2050. Plantei um ipê rosa e outro amarelo, que eles estejam florindo até 2050.

As you’ve grown older, I’ve become increasingly aware that protecting you means more than ensuring your short-term safety. It also means ensuring that you’ll have a safe planet to live on.

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.

If there is one thing that I taught you it is to be honest in your decisions as they pertain to yourselves and the earth in which you live.

The time has come to question ourselves as citizens about our own actions and the legacy we are leaving behind.
