Dear future,
I hope the weather is not too hot and people do not have to fight against water.

Dear future generations,
It’s never too late to make a difference. Our actions have very real consequences. We can educate ourselves, learn from our mistakes, and take action. We can hold companies like big oil and big plastic accountable for their negative impacts on the environment. We can educate ourselves and others about what causes climate change and what actions we as individuals can take to lower our carbon footprints.
My dearest Paloma Bear,
I want the very best for you and for generations to come. There is only one planet earth. Your mommy and I will make a genuine effort to make an impact to protect it for you.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise I will convince my family to switch their gas appliances to electric.
Dear Ellie,
My heart is an ocean of love for all the children facing a life of climate catastrophe.
Dear Tanuj,
The time has come to question ourselves as citizens about our own actions and the legacy we are leaving behind.
My darlings, Juno & Vaeda,
You ask insightful questions, and together we learn about the mysterious world we inhabit.
Dear Tomorrow
I will get my roommates to be more environmentally friendly.
My Dear Grandchildren,
In writing this letter to you, I am searching for ways to make my connection and commitment to you more present in my current experience
Dear Future,
I will use less plastic.
Dear Maya,
Maya, my love, I promise to be courageous. I promise that when I face a decision, I will think of how it will impact you and your future. I promise that I’ll also step outside my individual decisions and add my weight to the forces that shift culture and systems.
Aos meus sobrinhos queridos, Ana Laura, Luis Carlos e Helloísa,
Talvez eu não esteja viva para ver alguma mudança, mas espero que vocês vejam e tenham um mundo melhor em 2050. Plantei um ipê rosa e outro amarelo, que eles estejam florindo até 2050.
To my precious children,
As you’ve grown older, I’ve become increasingly aware that protecting you means more than ensuring your short-term safety. It also means ensuring that you’ll have a safe planet to live on.
