Eight-year-old
Jack Wietbrock wrote to
his hometown mayor, urging that turtle-crossing
signs be placed on a stretch
of road that’s surrounded by
ponds. Many a turtle had
already
succumbed to traffic while
crossing from one side to
another. Some were babies that
just couldn’t keep up.
Mayor
John Dennis then invited Wietbrock
and his family to a board meeting. Jack addressed the group with
these words: I just want to say I care about the whole Earth and everyone on it. The signs went up that
very same day.
