Peter Walker's Letter

My future descendents ,

I hope you believe me when I say that I did all I could. Many other like-minded people also did what they could to save our planet. Unfortunately we were very small cogs in a large machine and despite our best efforts greed and blinkered people ignored not just me, but also the science. Somehow they manage to sleep at night and continued to push their selfish ideals. I wish you could have seen and enjoyed the country and planet that I grew up in and remember fondly. Rest assured thought that I will continue to fight for you and your children.
