Que vocês possam contar para seus filhos e netos que minha geração tomou consciência de sua responsabilidade e assumiu sua condição de natureza e a ela se reintegrou, com inteligência, interação respeitosa e solidariedade.

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?).

As I write this, I consider giving up as it sometimes seems that all is lost. But then I think of you.

Last week I took you to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline.

It’s never too late to make a difference. Our actions have very real consequences. We can educate ourselves, learn from our mistakes, and take action. We can hold companies like big oil and big plastic accountable for their negative impacts on the environment. We can educate ourselves and others about what causes climate change and what actions we as individuals can take to lower our carbon footprints.

I will do my part to help ensure that there is an Earth left when we are done borrowing it.

The environment is important – take care of your actions to not destroy it starting from now.

Quiero pensar que ustedes serán la diferencia, que tomaran más actos sobre el asunto y no dejaran que nada los detenga.

Its been heavy on my shoulders since I found out about the state of climate woes as a child.

If we could all slow down, look around and connect: with each other, the Earth, the sky, the plants and rocks and animals, then maybe we can all remember to treat everyone and everything with respect and live in love.

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.
