“As a mother, veterinarian, avid traveler and lover of nature, changes in climate are important to me as they affect all aforementioned loves of mine. Without ensuring reduction of waste, our ozone layer will continue deteriorating. I’ve already seen impacts of this on our food supply- it was extremely difficult to find fruits that are usually in season due to fires in California and droughts in Midwest and Southeast. I hope and pray we can find a solution in regards to waste reduction to improve air quality and reduce negative effects waste and pollution has had on our climate and environment.”
