Dear President Trump,
Today, I went to Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore. My family,
along with a group from my church, went on a beautiful hike, where we saw
several garter snakes and enjoyed spending time skipping rocks in Lake Michigan
by the dunes.
My family also loves National Parks. Last year, on our
vacation, we attended Bryce, Zion, Mesa Verde, Arches, and Grand Canyon
National Parks. A few years ago, we went to Yellowstone with our reunion group.
My family is Christian, and, to us, it is important to spend time
admiring, interacting with, and caring for God’s creation. Just one glance
across Grand Canyon National Park proves how powerful and amazing our God is.
God commands us to take care of the world he created. It pains me
when I see people throwing away things that could be recycled, leaving lights
on that could be turned off, and buying new items when the ones they have
suffice. Pollution and global warming are things that make me frightened, and
sometimes, they make me feel small and powerless. But they are real things and
they need to be addressed.
When I attend a National Park or Lake Shore, I feel comforted.
They make me feel like America does care about preserving rare and unique
wildlife and formations. I am able to see parts of God’s incredible creation
that I wouldn’t get to see anywhere else in the world.
In short, President Trump, National Parks and Lake Shores are
extremely important.
And, I was quite upset when I heard that you’re cutting the budget
for National Parks and Lake Shores. That is not okay, President Trump. Please
reconsider.
Thank you,
