I’m going to commit to raising you with your eyes open. Being aware as much as we can, how to better our environment together.

Espero de coração que, no futuro, você possa olhar para trás e se orgulhar muito dos pais que teve.

I will keep the air clean so everyone can see the sunset.

I hope that by the time you’re reading this, things have changed and people have started to protect the earth

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

I am very proud to know that You will treat Our Earth, Our Natural Gift, Our Playful Backyard with the same Awesome Respect that We give to each other, as a Family – Knowing that Our Earth, is Your Child Now.

When you look at me with those big beautiful eyes and that innocent smile, you make me want to fight harder. And I do.

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.

I am most sorry we could not work through our differences, and see through the greed, get organized, and do more so that you could have a better life in your 2030 future.

As time progresses, there is hope that value will be placed on all living organisms, including humans, plants, and animals. Life will move at a slower pace, and being on your own time and moving at your individual pace will be the typical way of life. I consider this way of life good living, and I hope that future generations will live on this earth as it was once intended to live in peace and harmony.

The fact that you are reading this means that you would know the answer to a question that has kept me up at night more often than I would like to admit: Did I make you proud?
