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.

More Messages to the Future

 

I love you Earth.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to buy organic food and run more and bike more! (I could use the exercise.)

 

Dear Tomorrow,

The transformation of human consciousness

 

To my future Niece,

While I will work my hardest to create any positive change I can, you must continue this quest. You cannot give up hope, and you must always remember that the beauty on this Earth is worth saving.

 

Dear Daughter,

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

 

Dear Child,

Hope we get to have that snowball fight I always dreamed we’d have.

 

Dear Evan,

What has most inspired me to act is wanting to be able to look you in the eye and say, “When I became aware of the existential threat of climate change, I did all I could.”  Despite my pessimism, I act in the hope it can make a difference for future generations and all the precious life on our fragile planet.

 

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 Tomorrow

I promise to encourage myself and others to recycle more.

 

Dear my future family,

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

 

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.

 

To my dear children in the year 2050,

I don’t wish to go backwards, but I do wish we would slow down and design our brave new world with more care.
