It’s my hope that the following will be helpful as you navigate your futures.  These are the confessions of a climate activist:

In the coming months, we plan to complete a full assessment of our environmental impact online. We hope to discover our biggest areas of resource consumption, learn what we can do better, and create an action plan to improve over the next year.

A culture of consumption is the reason that my world faces such an ecological crisis, it is both necessary and proper to address the fundamental mindsets that have created such a destructive culture.

I hope this year is a real turning point and by the time you’re a teenager, your life is powered almost entirely by clean energy like solar and wind.

Mankind has always been able to deal with the greatest challenges it’s faced and this will not be the exception. My message to you is: find that passion and give it your all. ‘Till your legs give out.

One day ten or twenty years from now, when you look back from the future, you will be able to clearly see the entire path.

Please don’t wait to see the adverse effects instead adopt that river, stream, lake or ocean to make the world a better place.
