My goal was to help you grow into better citizens of our planet; to help you care about our natural world and to make everyday choices that reflect concern for our beautiful earth and our own health as well as encourage you to work together to make changes in our community.

For the pale blue dot we live on, a precious beauty, I try to help.

We need to rethink our consumption habits in order to reduce the impacts on the environment.

I’m voting with climate change as a top priority. I’ve tried to teach you boys that we need to clean up after ourselves and take care of the earth. I promise to continue doing these actions and more, for your sake.

I have to tell you something: it is so hard to keep our life “green” for now, but we still keep trying.

What gives me hope is what is yet to come, what you will experience in your lifetime.

I now feel less overwhelmed and powerless, and I am determined to fight for our planet and your future.

I promise to do my part. I promise to be the change I want to see in the world, and I hope that you, reader, will do the same.

We’re presenting at conferences, writing articles, and organizing events with the goal of mobilizing our profession to act on climate, and to help them understand that it will deeply impact our mission to preserve history for future generations.

Creo que debo hacer más. Por ello, he decidido escribir esta breve carta para empezar un proceso en el que vaya escribiendo más cartas, conforme vaya teniendo más claridad de mis posibles contribuciones.

Right now you are only a little over 5 weeks old, but you have truly changed my whole world. Your Mom and I always say that we thought we loved before you were born, but now that you have come into the world and we met you, our ability to love just expanded exponentially.
