Derek Bodey's Letter

To my grandchildren,

I ma sorry if my generation did not take action soon enough and your lives have bene blighted as a direct result of our selfishness

I hope I ma wrong and that there are people in government who care about the people they represent and serve, and who will make the changes we urgently need to protect a future for you.

I dream of a future where you can confidently choose to have children yourselves, because there is a good future for them.

I will never stop fighting for this and trying to set an example by reducing my personal carbon footprint.
