Michael Spring 's Letter

To my son and daughter,

I want you to have as good a life as me. I don't think you'll be able to do that if we keep ignoring climate change now. Life needs to work for the climate and not against it. That means re-thinking how we do things and behaving in ways that might not seem comfortable at first. But we always moan about change. The difference now is we have to do it quickly and equitably. But if we do it and commit to change, then you will have a great future. I'm ready. My generation has been so lucky. Its time now to give something back.

Letters to Tomorrow, like this one, will help persuade politicians to stop stalling and put climate change on their agenda every day.
