Sue's Letter

To my five wonderful grandchildren,

DEAR All, I have been so fortunate to have been born just after the end of the World War 2 and I feel passionately I would like you all to have the same good fortune.

Growing up I had no concerns about the future, and met a wonderful man with whom I had three wonderful daughters, who happily found good husbands. All are great folk helping the world along and have given us the FabFive as we call you.

But what can we do for you? What sort of future lies ahead for you? Politicians aren't putting Climate Change at the top of the agenda, making me SO mad........ but I don't feel capable to do enough about it. I petition all I can, litterpick, use as little fossil fuel as I can, wearing up to TEN layers so as not to have to put heating on, and giving up flying etc etc

I pray daily that some good will come round the corner and save a happy healthy world for you to enjoy as we have done, and hope you'll forgive me for not having a magic wand.

Love always from Granny
