I want the very best for you and for generations to come. There is only one planet earth. Your mommy and I will make a genuine effort to make an impact to protect it for you.

Tenho muito orgulho da minha função (agente de fiscalização ambiental do Acre) pois é através dela que posso dar um pouco do meu suor, para que no futuro ambos possam ter um lugar melhor para viver.

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?).

We loved hiking, camping, biking, swimming and playing as kids together.

I am most sorry we could not work through our differences, and see through the greed, get organized, and do more so that you could have a better life in your 2030 future.

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

I hope that the state of the environment becomes a part of everyday discourse.

I promise you to keep trying, to keep educating, to keep pushing our elected officials to act and protect your health now and in the future.
