Dear future generations,

I hope you get to see the oceans and all of creatures that call them home. I hope you get to feel the rough bark of a tree while climbing on a sunny day. I hope you get to smell fresh rain during the summer, while you run outside to play in the puddles. I hope you get to hear the chirping of baby birds, when their mom comes home to feed them. I hope you get to taste the cold prick of a snowflake on your tongue while making snowmen. I hope you get to smell flowers in your backyard, not a museum. And most of all I hope that we can work together to make all of this available to you for a long, long time.

More Messages to the Future

 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to change the culture of my school.
 

I love you Earth.
 

Minha pequena Nicole ainda não nos conhecemos, mas já te amo

Deixo para você o meu quintal onde o ar é perfumado pelas flores e árvores, a terra dá frutos e flores além de abrigar muitos bichinhos, a água é utilizada com consciência e o ser humano é respeitado e tratado como alguém que depende da natureza para VIVER.
 

Dear Elliott,

We’re moving into uncertain times, and your dad and I worry. A lot. But you’re keeping us going. You’re pushing us to make better choices and not give up.
 

My grandchildren,

I promise to do my very best to educate your parents as best I can.
 

Aos meus sobrinhos queridos, Ana Laura, Luis Carlos e Helloísa,

Talvez eu não esteja viva para ver alguma mudança, mas espero que vocês vejam e tenham um mundo melhor em 2050. Plantei um ipê rosa e outro amarelo, que eles estejam florindo até 2050.
 

Dear future family and friends,

This is our house.
 

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 Tomorrow,

I promise to ride a bike and take a smart train.
 

To my future children,

It’s not enough to just recycle. I will sign petitions and call my local representatives. I will also engage in conversations about climate change – even with people with whom I don’t see eye-to-eye.
 

Querido amanhã,

Sempre é bom ajudar a natureza.
 

To my brother’s children,

We wondered about how we might be able to eliminate plastics from our day to day routines, and recycled literally everything. We were amazing, you should have seen us. Now and again though, we wondered if these were the right questions.
