There are many paths to Truth, but regardless of your faith or ideology, one truth is above all else: Life must continue.

Thank you — Thank you — without you, I would not hear butterflies singing, without you, I would not understand black bear humor, or the creativity of jays planning their breakfast, without you, I would not feel flora whispers of long-lived wisdom on the back of my neck while sitting in Padmasana.

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.

I am often faced with the question: why do I care so much about this pale blue dot that we inhabit?

While I will work my hardest to create any positive change I can, you must continue this quest. You cannot give up hope, and you must always remember that the beauty on this Earth is worth saving.

The journey of humanity does not take us to Mars like the world now likes to believe. It takes us home to our true self where there is no separate self. Where we are all one. You know all this. Look after yourself my child, look after your brother, your friends, your children, all the animals and the whole planet. Love them like there is no tomorrow.

If there is one thing that I taught you it is to be honest in your decisions as they pertain to yourselves and the earth in which you live.

A message from co-founder Jill Kubit:
Writing letters to our kids about climate change is hard. It should be.

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.
