Lucie, I love you more than you could ever know and I hope that my promises help contribute to a better world for you and inspire you to take action as well as you grow into the amazing adult I know you will be.

Awareness is key. Learning about this issue can seem like a small effort compared to other actions, but it’s the most important.

I hope that my work helping to make your schools more sustainable will be something you carry on as you grow older.

This Mother’s Day I am again thinking of my grandsons future and what I am doing to change the world if only by a small fraction.

You should make a time machine and come back to past and solve all the problems.

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

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.
