I wrote all three books in The Neptune Trilogy in part because I am so very worried about climate change. The earth is heating rapidly and human activity is the primary cause. 99% of the climate scientists in the world agree on this. Our species is truly changing our weather and our planet. Climate change shouldn’t be a political issue. It’s everyone’s issue. My generation has left you this giant problem. It will be up to your generation to find the solutions to it.
Since The Neptune Project was first published, I’ve been lucky enough to meet with thousands of bright students at schools all over the United States and other countries. I feel confident that you will find a way to stop climate change, and you will be much better caretakers of our planet than we were.
If you want to start making a difference and saving the earth and our oceans today, check out the list of twenty-five ways kids can save the planet posted on my website in the Cool Stuff section.
In the meantime, I’m going to take a little break from my Neptune world, but I am planning to write the story of how Nere met Tsukwani and her little sister, and some day Bria and Robry may go off on adventures of their own. The best way to see what I’m writing next is to visit my website from time to time.
Thank you for reading and for caring about my books.
