This is a recent heat-map of Earth, as it currently stands. Climate change and global warming are, in my opinion as a young person and student, the most important issues that needs to be addressed by my generation. After hearing dismal report after dismal report of the decline of climate stability and the indifference of some leaders in addressing the issues, I feel as though working toward stability is something I can begin now and continue after college.
This is my family from when we were on a trip in North Carolina a couple of years ago. Though I am no longer living with them, I have grown more appreciative of them as I have gotten older and one of the reasons I am in college is to ensure a good future for myself, my family, and whomever I may consider family in the future. Also, this photo doesn’t do justice to seeing that waterfall in real life; it’s a beautiful patch of woods.
