Sometimes I think we will never make it, but I know we must keep trying.

Devemos conservar nosso planeta. Mas, para se fazer isso, temos que fazer isso juntos. Todos os seres humanos devem estar voltados para cuidar bem do lar em que vivemos e do presente que Deus nos deu para viver: a Terra.

In writing this letter to you, I am searching for ways to make my connection and commitment to you more present in my current experience

I became an activist to be part of a force to save the natural world and go 100% clean energy.

Quiero pensar que ustedes serán la diferencia, que tomaran más actos sobre el asunto y no dejaran que nada los detenga.

What I wish most for you girls is that the care you have shown each other would extend to the big wide world around you.

But when you encounter that resistance–and you will, regularly–know that you must respond just how we have had to these past 50 years. With love, and sternness, and most of all, courage. Because that is what the resistance fears the most. We who came before you promise that we will do the same while we wait for you. Know that you will never be alone.

I am a better person because of you, and I want the world to be a better place for you.

Maya, my love, I promise to be courageous. I promise that when I face a decision, I will think of how it will impact you and your future. I promise that I’ll also step outside my individual decisions and add my weight to the forces that shift culture and systems.

I tried to teach you of the importance of being satisfied with what you had within your hands.
