Dear Earth,

I really don’t understand why some people disregard you and your system. I don’t understand why people don’t care about extreme climate events and temperatures when they are knocking our door every day and every second. I ask myself: can’t they see the risk we’re willing to take and the time we’re losing to save the world? I can’t understand why they refuse to use clean energy, when it is good for us and for you, when its benefits are welcome for the whole world! Why? Why so much arrogance and opposition to what is the right way to go? Why delay in acting? It’s like we want to suffer, to prove it deeply, just to see where we’ll arrive in this old way! Well, I just hope someday everyone will wake up before it’s too late. Oh, I forgot. We are already late! My dream is to wake up someday and see a world that is taking care of nature and is being run on clean energy. Is it possible Earth? Is it an illusion? I hope not. Take care.

More Messages to the Future

 

My dear granddaughter Christy,

My own curiosity and knowing what a caring, aware young woman you are help me override despair.

 

Dear Elliott,

We’re moving into uncertain times, and your dad and I worry. A lot. But you’re keeping us going. You’re pushing us to make better choices and not give up.

 

Dear grandchild,

There is a place on this planet called the Amazon, and I don’t mean the online shopping site (is that still a thing in your time?).

 

Dear Tanuj,

The time has come to question ourselves as citizens about our own actions and the legacy we are leaving behind.

 

Dear Students,

I imagine at this point we have dropped our addiction to coal, gas, and oil and that our environment has made a turn for the better with the solar, wind, and other unimagined (at this point) alternative energy choices are in place.

 

dear future children,

As I write this, our world is slowly giving way to climate change.

 

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 my future family,

I will promise to help climate change as much as I can.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to stop using a plastic straw.

 

Dear old dude Mårten,

I know that the 2019 version of me (today that is) wished and hoped for that I did all within my power to turn the world around without loosing sight on the beauty of being alive.

 

Pick up your trash wherever you go!

 

Dear X—, Dear A—,

As with our struggles to eliminate police brutality, as with hate crimes, so it is with climate change – there are actually a lot of people out there who care.
