Dear Alice,

My mind fills with fear when I think of the world that we may inhabit in 2050. I hope that there is clean air,

Water,

Housing,

Oceans, 

Fields to run in.

I wish so badly that I could promise you that we are going to be living in a world where the worries of climate change will be behind us, and I am so sorry if that does not come to fruition. I don’t have hopes of flying cars or teleportation, simply that things don’t get any worse for our earth. Perhaps they even get better. 

My commitment to you is to help you invest in our community. Maybe we can get rid of our cars together, and buy bikes. My commitment is to love you and love our home. 

Love always

To My Grandchildren,

It’s my hope that the following will be helpful as you navigate your futures.  These are the confessions of a climate activist:
 

To My Future Children,

Most importantly, I hope you live in a world where science is taken seriously and fact is clearly distinguished from fiction.
 

Dear World,

The environment is important – take care of your actions to not destroy it starting from now.

I promise when I start my baking franchise, I will reduce pollution made by it as much as physically possible.
 

Dear Me of Tomorrow,

I plan to plant more things this spring, as we do every year in our garden.

I want to tell you a story. Yes, another one.

Mankind has always been able to deal with the greatest challenges it’s faced and this will not be the exception. My message to you is: find that passion and give it your all. ‘Till your legs give out.
 

Dear Nova and Remi,

I wish for you both that another kind of life has been discovered, one of peace, moderation and concern for all life.
 

Dear Amara and Uma,

Maybe you heard about bats? Bats, the carriers of this disease that spread among us like wild fire. I love bats. When I was your age today, sitting in the evening on the back terrace of your grandparent’s home in Ibiza, hundreds of bats would play, dance and sing among the trees.
 

For my children,

If we haven’t done enough and the world you’re living on is apocalyptic or if you’re living on another planet then I’m deeply sorry and just know that I believe in you and I know that you are both strong and smart enough to handle anything.
 

Dear people of The Future,

Thank you for reading. Do your part to save the globe.
