Dear future generation,

I’m sorry for the way my generation treated our planet and harmed the minds of the youth. Whether it was through media or making drug abuse the norm or pumping harmful chemicals in to the air, polluting natural lands and destroying the habitats and homes of many animals. I’m sorry that many of you may not know what or ever get to see a rhino, sea turtles, or even something as simple as a fish. I just hope that at the time of me writing this letter someone is doing something for future generations.

Dear Nova and Remi,

Dear Kids,

My mistake was thinking I needed to give you more to be a good Mom. Recently your aunt asked me what my favorite toy was growing up. I gulped, I didn’t have one- it was the outdoors, sliding down a ravine of leaves with my Dad, skiing and camping. Today is October 12th, 2021 and I am still going to be giving you a lot, it’s going to look a little different – love, experiences, education and a healthy planet.

Dear Rowan and Anaka,

If we could talk, I would not be able to bear your gaze as you ask: How could you, the people in a position to change the course of climate change, fail to act?
 

Dear future child whatever your name is,

Climate change right now is really bad, I’m writing this during the COP26 conference in Glasgow (which is an hour away) and I’m listening to politicians talking about promises for the future. “If we fail, future generations will never forgive us.” -Boris Johnson
 

Dear Before The Flood team,

We can all be aware and sensitized to the problem, so that we are ready to embrace the solutions that will come our way. In doing so, we can all be part of the solution.
