To My Grandchildren,

It is currently 10:56 on September 29,2019. I’m simply on my Apple computer doing homework for French class. I have no clue when or where you will read this, but I sure do hope you will obtain this letter. I’m writing to you because our current world’s health is in danger. Millions and millions of people are oblivious with what is going on: the earth is heating up. I’m sure you already know or will eventually learn why our earth is rapidly growing hotter, but regardless it is a major issue. I want you to know that I do everything in my will to prevent my own carbon footprint (how much I personally contribute to global warming) from expanding. I never leave the water running, always turn my lights off when not using them, and always recycle properly. I wish for you to do the same and to spread those ideas to your friends, peers, and the rest of our family. I hope one day when I’m old and grey we can read this letter together, and admire the changes our population has implemented in our society. I hope we can breathe incredibly fresh air, and not worry about wearing masks when we walk outside. I know we will be okay, and I cannot wait to meet you. I love you.

Sincerely,

Will Rickert
