I Wrote A Letter And An Inconvenient Truth Is Being Shown In My Community's Schools
Due to my perseverence regarding letters to the City Council through my community paper and also donating a copy of An Inconvenient Truth to the Board of Education it is beginning to be shown in the schools in my community based on the teacher's discretion, but nevertheless it is being shown. And I am not letting up. I just wrote another letter to ask for incentives to green business and to cap carbon, and to also institute a program whereby residents of my town who cannot afford CFLs would have a way to get them for free. I cannot tell you how fulfilling it is to be accomplishing this. It proves without a doubt that truth and perseverence can make a difference, and so can one person with a cause. Imagine what we can all do globally if we truly focused on solving this now. If you then have been wondering if simply writing a letter that is heartfelt to express the importance of this crisis and workiing to solve it can do any good, it can so don't give up.

2. Thank you so much
The next letter goes out to churches and businesses in my community. And the Tree Nation project to plant 8 million trees in the shape of a heart in Niger to mitigate poverty and deforestation is a very worthy cause, so please check that site out and again, thank you!
