Dear Jeff and Rich

The planet is on fire, 1000s dying of covid, species extinction, millions in poverty and you two are spending all your money on wanting to see this beautiful planet of ours from above.

Please divert your immense resources to helping us on this planet NOW rather than on this space race. 

With the money Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin has spent so far you both could have literally saved whole eco-systems, vaccinated countries and more. 

Think of what could be achieved with all your scientists, engineers, builders and makers working on solving this planet's problems first.

All the amazing designers, film makers and media personal put to work to helping change behaviours and mindsets instead of promoting your space flights.

Make your legacies about this planet not private space flights for the rich.

Both of you could literally change things in an instant.

Why not have a race to save the Amazon? Or end famine? 

No one will mind if you postpone your space race until the planet is fixed.
