Dear future generations,

When I try to imagine how the Earth looks like by the time you are reading this, only disasters, chaos and nature-less pictures come to my mind. As if now, we have experienced some consequences of climate change: environments have been deteriorated affecting the people that live on it. Regardless of these consequences, many people seem not to care or don’t see the evidence of climate change. On the other hand, there are some people trying to fight against this issue. When I come across these people they do amazing and huge changes but lamentably there are not many people like this yet. But don’t think that their change is in vain, because “in the open space of democracy every vote counts and every vote is counted”. This means that even if only a small change is made it is a huge step toward fighting against climate change. Based on this, I am hoping that the first lines of this letter made no sense to you and these people were able to make a change for the future which is now your present.

Sincerely,

Sandra

More Messages to the Future

 

To all the people here on earth,

Who knows what the future would look like? or what will happened in the future? No one knows right? That’s why it it’s scary because we don’t know what lies ahead. We couldn’t stop the future but we can always change it.
 

I pledge to take the bus.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise I will convince my family to switch their gas appliances to electric.
 

Dear Lalo,

I hope whatever happens, whatever I can’t imagine that you may face, that you will continue to seek light.
 

Dear fellow human,

May my tomorrow include more attention to these details so that you know that I do care.
 

Dear Elliot and Alana,

But being truthful, I know we are not yet on the path that will lead to the change that is needed; but it is visible.
 

Dear Future Sami Lee,

Everyone currently in life laughs and yells save the bees. We were a bee this year for Halloween and Lucy even came up with a great slogan “get with it honey”.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to pick up trash at every beach I visit, use metal straws, take quick showers.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise when I start my baking franchise, I will reduce pollution made by it as much as physically possible.
 

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 use a reusable water bottle.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

My climate promise: community awareness of the climate crisis.
