Dear son,
Sorry that you have to experience and grow up in the world past generations created. People’s greed and selfishness may have ruined the beautiful nature that I got to see but you may never see. I want you to know that we tried our best to fix the mistakes of my parent’s generation, but it was not enough. I grew up to watching people try to save the rainforest and the sea turtles, but you might not ever see one in your life time. There were just too many problems going on in people’s lives to focus on the environment. Hopefully your generation will be smart enough to find a way to fix the problems we made.
