I am working every second of my life, with every ounce of my being, to ensure that I am leaving you and your brother a planet that is safe and secure.

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

I want you to hear the whispers of the seasons changing. The rustling of leaves as they gracefully cascade down from their limbs in the fall, birds singing in spring, and frogs that serenade the summer night.

Despite all the difficulties, we are from a family whose principles are honesty and love for others, and that’s what I want to share with you.

I promise that I will change my behavior to benefit our trees.

I do believe that the collective power of everyone’s best efforts can curb the worst effects of climate change, and provide you with a more stable and secure future.

May my tomorrow include more attention to these details so that you know that I do care.

If there is any advice I could give you, it is to believe that although you are one single person in this world, you still have the ability to make a difference in this world.

I promise to do my very best to educate your parents as best I can.

There are so many more things that we can do together to help our Earth from the damage that has been done, and I am so excited to teach you.
