Dear Mr. President of Spain,

We want to get in touch with you to express our concern for Climate Change. We think that the Spanish Parliament is not taking enough measures, neither is discussing about it or proposing new laws to prevent killing the planet.

Considering this, we want to ask you some questions so that you can reflect about what is happening and take action on this.

Why isn’t this considered as a crisis? If we do not act now, in some years, it will be late to react. Now-a-days, a new law has been created to moderate the traffic in Madrid, so we must stop many of the emissions with similar measures all over the country.  

We believe that the time has come to stop speeches and promises that do not contribute at all to stop climate change.  The time has arrived of moving to action. We do not want to ruin our planet and we do not want to leave this disaster for our children. So, please, take this matter seriously and guarantee our future.

In the hope that this letter moves your conscience. 

Yours faithfully,

Roberto Ciriero, Mario Hueso and Mario Herreruela
