Leandro Rosas - Free Surfboard and Wetsuit Essay Contest Entrant
Leandro Rosas is working on an interesting project (see www.tierramotors.com) but I decided to pass on his request as I felt the impact on his life in getting a free wetsuit and surfboard would be less than some of the other entrants.
I grew up in Redwood City, California, but I have recently moved to Santa Cruz. Some reasons for me moving are obvious; the great weather, nice beaches, great dining (especially for me since my girlfriend and I are newly converted vegetarians), and the wonderful and unique culture. The main reason however, is trying to make the world a better place, and Santa Cruz seams the best place for inspiration. What I have learned in Santa Cruz has helped me expand my vision into other parts of Northern California. I started a company recently dedicated to the global warming cause. Growing up in Redwood City, my father has operated automotive companies since he was sixteen years of age. So, in taking what I know from that, and combining it with my new dedication to fight the climate crisis, I started a little company back on my old stomping grounds that is dedicated to allowing vehicles to run more efficiently using new alternative energy, whether its biodiesel, electric power, WVO, SVO, and so on. Now, how does this relate to surfing and the need for wetsuits and a free surfboard? Well, as you can imagine, a start up company is relatively expensive and I have no excess money to devote to hobbies that I love. So, by you giving me your wetsuits and surfboard, you are directly benefiting to the Global warming cause and increasing money spent on alternative fuel resources. As Santa Cruz has done for me, I hope this letter does it for you: Gives you inspiration to help a noble cause. Thanks for reading.
