Don’t stop looking for adventures.

I promise to do my part, supporting federal legislation to protect our earth while starting small with projects at home.

But when you are reading this years from now, by the light of a solar powered lamp, know that your dad, mom and millions of others who burned brightly with love for our kids did what we could, when we knew the stakes.

We thought that the world was an endless supply of whatever we wanted… I know it sounds hard to believe, but that is the way it was.

Unfortunately, our selfishness and excessive greed have closed our eyes to the well-being of the planet, and it has suffered the consequences.

I now feel less overwhelmed and powerless, and I am determined to fight for our planet and your future.

I wish you this security knowing we changed because we love you.

Be assured that in the upcoming election, I will cast my vote for your future – for elected officials that recognize climate risks and are willing to promote and vote for legislation that will stop environmental damage and begin to heal our planet.

I realize my reflection of the past, current and future state of the environment paints a grim and pessimistic picture, but I feel optimistic in our ability to turn planet Earth’s fate around if we all work together and commit to making a change.

I think a lot about where the right place to live is.
