I promise to try everyday to limit my carbon footprint. I hope that by the year 2050 we will have significantly reduced our carbon footprint, and I hope that my children can live in a safe, healthy world. I promise to make the planet a safe place to live when my children grow up. And I pray that they do not have to make promises like this.
Dear Tomorrow,
The transformation of human consciousness
My darling girls,
I can be brave enough to wake up.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to go to the farmer’s market more
Filha,
Saiba que enquanto eu tiver vida, minha voz não calará para alertar o mal que estamos fazendo agora para as nossas gerações futuras…
To My Friends, Family and Future Grandchildren,
I realize my reflection of the past, current and future state of the environment paints a grim and pessimistic picture, but I feel optimistic in our ability to turn planet Earth’s fate around if we all work together and commit to making a change.
Dear Jeremy,
We had a lot in common obviously, and our concern for the planet we live on was one of the many things we bonded over.
My darlings, Juno & Vaeda,
You ask insightful questions, and together we learn about the mysterious world we inhabit.
Dear Llewyn, beloved grandson …
I can only say that I devoted myself to doing as much as I could to make it better, to provide for a just transition, and to fight those forces that continued to exploit the Eaarth with extractive methods, methods that always also included oppressing some people–because those doing the oppression believed that they were better and deserved more.
Dear Son,
I hope with effective action to combat this climate change will we have a better world in the future.
Dear Future Self,
More than getting through a global pandemic that has already taken hundreds of thousands of lives around the world, our true feat is even larger: to secure our long-term health and the health of the ecosystems upon which we depend for life. To do that, we have to cut our emissions in half in the next ten years, and continue to reduce it beyond that. And to succeed in that, we need to fundamentally shift the way we do EVERYTHING.
Caro me stesso,
Non so dove e con chi sarò nel 2050, spero che sia un anno migliore di quello appena passato .
Dear fellow human,
May my tomorrow include more attention to these details so that you know that I do care.
