Dear 2050,
Our planet is crazy. I pledge to be an innovator to make sustainable living real.

Dear Tomorrow,
I promise I will use less fossil fuels.
To my dear son,
Last year most of the world’s reefs turned white at some point, but because it was underwater you and your friends didn’t see.
Dear Lillyana,
I will continue to work to make the Earth a cleaner and safer place for you to grow and explore.
Pick up your trash wherever you go!
Dear Future Self,
I am scared of the things happening right now with our planet.
Dear Levon,
I hope, as your father, I’ve done enough to instill within you how science is a wonderful adventure.
Dear Maya, Emilio and Daniel,
We thought that the world was an endless supply of whatever we wanted… I know it sounds hard to believe, but that is the way it was.
Dear Future,
“I knew you would want to know how the future turned out. You got so anxious about climate change as we grew older. By coming back, I thought I could help you with that.”
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to not waste food and eat locally grown food.
Dear Samuel, Willa, and Ben,
To the core of my being, and only through the power of community, I will honor the voices of the youth who are pleading, “Don’t burn my future.” Samuel, Willa, and Ben, your little voices I know, will join that chorus soon enough.
My darlings, Juno & Vaeda,
You ask insightful questions, and together we learn about the mysterious world we inhabit.
Dearest Finlay,
I hope you are healthy and happy and that you feel supported by the ecosystem around you because we are all deeply truly interconnected. We depend on the earth to take care of us, and nature needs us to take care of her in turn. We all need each other.
