Dear future generation,

I believe climate change is the biggest global issue my generation is facing. It has been the result of several factors like carbon dioxide emissions, food production, and land use changes. This problem was not created by my generation, but it is our job to reduce it by any means necessary for your generation. The reason for this is because we are all humans and share this planet.

That being said, my promise is to reduce energy usage, use more public transportation, and eat less meat and more chicken and vegetables. Additionally, I will advocate to my friends and family to also change their habits.

Tonight at bedtime, you asked, seemingly out of nowhere, “why are the glaciers disappearing?”

You are young and have a rich future ahead of you. I am retired and aiming for a high quality of cultural life and comfort with whatever time remains to me.

Dear Future Self,

It was 2020, the year I realized that life is fragile—not just mine, but the entire planet—through immense consumption, pollution, greediness, ignorance, false bliss. This wasn’t the way I wanted to live my life, so I promise to actively make the change.
