Climate change is happening. We know it is, yet we don’t do much about it because it isn’t hurting us. It seems as though we are gambling now with the fate of our future and nobody seems to care because the debt collectors will come for you, not us. we know it is getting bad but habits won’t change because there isn’t a gun to our heads forcing that decision. I’m sorry.
To my beloved granddaughters, Margaret and Caroline,
Growing up in Germany, I often wondered what my parents had done to oppose the Nazi regime in the 1930’s that led to WWII. I was so disappointed when I found out how passive they had been. For me, this was formative.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise my next vehicle will be an EV.
Dear Tomorrow,
We want to let others know about how to fight climate crisis.
Dear Tomorrow
I promise to encourage myself and others to recycle more.
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.
Jeremy M,
My promise is to work to protest carbon emissions.
Dear future me,
I am 19 years old, and I am angry.
Dear Lila
So today, my strong and spunky girl, I promise you this: I will stay vigilant and flexible. I will spread the word.
Queridas crianças do mundo inteiro,
Pedimos que vocês procurem fazer como nós e continuem essa luta de colaborar com nosso planeta: evitando o consumo exagerado, usando a tecnologia para o bem, plantando árvores, economizando água e poluindo menos.
Dear Devon and Chloe
I hope that my work helping to make your schools more sustainable will be something you carry on as you grow older.
Dear Future,
I asked you, the future , to help us as well, to preserve our only planet that can give us life, that can let us watch anime, go to the beach, smell flowers, run through the meadow, listen to our songs, be in a concert, and let us live.
Dear Tomorrow,
I will do my part to help ensure that there is an Earth left when we are done borrowing it.
