To my future kids,

I hope that by the time you’ve seen this, the people of this planet will have already been actively working together to battle climate change. I hope that the environment you’re living in is one that you can feel safe in, one that doesn’t harm your health or cause you pain. The world I live in today isn’t perfect but I’ve gotten to experience so much of what this planet has to offer, such as being able to go snowboarding in the winters, snorkeling in the ocean overlooking the coral reefs, being able to go on scenic hikes, and so much more. I was able to enjoy all these wonderful outdoor adventures and I hope that your future generation will too. I hope all these activities will still be easily accessible for you, your children, their children and so on. I hope you get to see the world the way it is supposed to be and not what we’ve caused it to be. I will continue to do my part in reducing my carbon footprint because I want to know that you were able to grow up in a safe and healthy Earth.
