I love you my son. You are waking up now. Hopefully tomorrow, more of us will, too.

Despite all the difficulties, we are from a family whose principles are honesty and love for others, and that’s what I want to share with you.

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

Hope we get to have that snowball fight I always dreamed we’d have.

I hope, as your father, I’ve done enough to instill within you how science is a wonderful adventure.

My goal was to help you grow into better citizens of our planet; to help you care about our natural world and to make everyday choices that reflect concern for our beautiful earth and our own health as well as encourage you to work together to make changes in our community.

29 years later, I wish I still can ride bike and go some lovely places in nature. Sky is blue and air is fresh, I will be shining under the sun.

I think a lot about what you might be like when you grow up and about what kind of world you will live in.

Dobbiamo aiutare nel conservare il bello che c’è nel nostro pianeta.

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.

If we don’t stop cutting down trees for agriculture and to build houses then the future generations will not think about trees when they hear the word Earth.

Today, I promise to keep my spaces clean and my environment cleaner.
