To My Dear Grandchildren,

I am incredibly happy that Nana and I can occasionally facetime, zoom, or chat with you to learn how you are doing and just catch up. The pandemic we are currently experiencing here in 2020 is something I have never experienced in my lifetime. While it can be scary and uncertain, I am confident that if we follow the recommendations of health professionals, eventually, we will find our way back to a more normal time – so that we can visit in person and share hugs again.

Even while we are physically apart, I want all of you to know that I am continuing to work to make our planet a safer and healthier place for you and your generation. As a volunteer with Citizens Climate Lobby, I raise awareness about climate issues, communicate and lobby our Members of Congress, and oppose efforts to ignore climate science. Be assured that in the upcoming election, I will cast my vote for your future – for elected officials that recognize climate risks and are willing to promote and vote for legislation that will stop environmental damage and begin to heal our planet.

Love Always,
Papa
