I am often faced with the question: why do I care so much about this pale blue dot that we inhabit?

There is a place on this planet called the Amazon, and I don’t mean the online shopping site (is that still a thing in your time?).

I will stand on the streets, in the courts, and in the schools to encourage awareness and empathy for the earth.

Since my two daughters emerged into this world, all of my tomorrows have become more dear.

I pray that you are having a happy life and that you have contributed each year of your life into helping to make our planet healthy, cleaner, thriving and greener- a better place for all people and animals to live.

I hope by 2050, our society has taken initiative to be producing energy solely through renewable sources.

I commit to you to change one thing a year in our lifestyle to live more environmentally friendly.
