Surrounded by scientists who shared my fears and visions, I often had a hard time to accept that outside our small community climate change received marginal attention.

We’re moving into uncertain times, and your dad and I worry. A lot. But you’re keeping us going. You’re pushing us to make better choices and not give up.

Que se multipliquem estes novos heróis da Terra!

I promise that I will plant more trees in places where there are none.

You ask insightful questions, and together we learn about the mysterious world we inhabit.

I hope that things have cooled down. I hope that people and governments have come together to save our earth. I hope that everyone is able to breath clean air, drink clean water and see the beauty in nature that I do. I promise to do my best to take part in repairing the damage we’ve done so that my hopes may come true.

Remember how passionate you felt at 20, I hope you keep that passion in you and are still working on climate 30 years from now.

I love you and I care deeply about your future.

Sometimes I think we will never make it, but I know we must keep trying.

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.
