Dear future generations,

I first would like to start off by apologizing for the mess we left you all in; the world is a pretty materialistic place and tends to care more about money and power than preserving the planet in which we live. It’s pretty hypocritical if you think about it, because (at the rate we’re currently effecting the Earth) once it becomes unlivable, it is no longer about money or wealth, but survival.

Moreover, I’d like to continue by mentioning that I am doing my part as a citizen, by recycling, conserving water, carpooling, and doing everything in my power to negate climate change. Unfortunately, I do not have much pull right now, but hopefully one day I can make a difference. Also, by voting for politicians who legitimately care about the wellbeing of the environment, we can help to save the Earth.

More Messages to the Future

 

Dear Sadie,

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. I do not want to see a world whose elders sacrifice your future for their short-term needs and personal gain. So it’s up to you and me to speak out.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to pick up trash at every beach I visit 🙂 and to bike for local errands.
 

To my sons,

I’m voting with climate change as a top priority. I’ve tried to teach you boys that we need to clean up after ourselves and take care of the earth. I promise to continue doing these actions and more, for your sake.
 

To all the children of the future and those who love them,

While there is still breath in this body I will give of my soul and my time and energy to making the world a better place, for you, and all the beautiful living beings of this world.
 

To the Three most Beautiful Souls I could ever Know,

I promise to keep your Love at the forefront of my every move. I will make personal changes and I will learn more, so that I can contribute to a healthier environment in a meaningful way.
 

To My Friends, Family and Future Grandchildren,

I realize my reflection of the past, current and future state of the environment paints a grim and pessimistic picture, but I feel optimistic in our ability to turn planet Earth’s fate around if we all work together and commit to making a change.
 

Dear future Child or Grandchild,

Climate is undeniably changing but it is not top priority.
 

Dear future me,

If we don’t stop cutting down trees for agriculture and to build houses then the future generations will not think about trees when they hear the word Earth.
 

My dear Honeys,

I think every parent believes that their child’s future is worth protecting – because I know the power of this force in me and what I am willing to do.
 

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
 

To my unborn children, hey it’s mummy Cris here!

I am witnessing climate change in a way that I do not like, and I do not know how can I stop it.
 

Dear Chay and Kate,

Don’t ever let anyone tell you your actions don’t matter. Every single thing you do matters. You matter.
