We thought that the world was an endless supply of whatever we wanted… I know it sounds hard to believe, but that is the way it was.

I am doing everything I can because I want the footprint that I leave behind to be my feet in the sand on a beach and not a carbon one.

If we work together to spread the awareness of what is occurring today, we will be able to prevent it from continuing into the tomorrow.

I am working with 350.org on shutting down the coal and unconventional gas industries in our country because I cannot think of a more direct way to protect you, the food, water and biodiversity we all love and rely on.

Por você idealizei um mundo melhor e lutei incessantemente por ele.

While there is still breath in this body I will give of my soul and my time and energy to making the world a better place, for you, and all the beautiful living beings of this world.

You should’ve reduced your carbon footprint, should be using some source of renewable energy and be a vegetarian by now.

I hope you are healthy and happy and that you feel supported by the ecosystem around you because we are all deeply truly interconnected. We depend on the earth to take care of us, and nature needs us to take care of her in turn. We all need each other.

And, if this summer has taught me anything, I am content (because I have to be) living in this limbo, this seemingly endless waiting for the opportunity to change, when really the opportunity exists within our very selves all along.
