To Those in the Future,

It’s 2020 and a lot of things are going on, there is a pandemic. Many people might not be thinking about it right now, and many think it’s not a big deal, but the changing climate is a HUGE deal. If we don’t do something soon to change the way we are, then we are jeopardizing the future and who knows what earth is going to be like in 2050. All I ever wanted was a healthy planet to live on, with no pollution making it harder to breathe. I want to be able to live a life that isn’t filled with future hardships and I want my future children to live in a world that is habitable.

What I’m asking you shouldn’t be hard to consider. Assuming that those close to you are your # 1 priority, do us a simple favor. Please use the metal straw buried in your bookbag or bring that reusable bag to the grocery store. It’s a SMALL step in changing our daily lives, but I guarantee that it will work out in the long run.

I wish you all a healthy, safe, and clean world. Hopefully, we were able to turn things around in time.

Climate is undeniably changing but it is not top priority.

I realize my reflection of the past, current and future state of the environment paints a grim and pessimistic picture, but I feel optimistic in our ability to turn planet Earth’s fate around if we all work together and commit to making a change.
