To my daughter and son,
Surrounded by scientists who shared my fears and visions, I often had a hard time to accept that outside our small community climate change received marginal attention.
Dear Future Self,
I am scared of the things happening right now with our planet.
Dear Future Me,
I hope that when we look back on these years, you’ll see that humanity can be good. That we joined together and fixed it because of we don’t, who will?
Dear Hailey and Lily,
We know about this. If we don’t fix this for you, it’s our fault.
Dear Tomorrow,
I will stop using plastic and will plant trees. I will also not waste water and electricity.
Hallo Clara,
Was wohl der Klimawandel im Jahr 2050 macht? und wer gerade in der Politik ist? Bei uns macht der Klimawandel gerade Vollgas und an der Macht ist Angela Merkel, seit 16 Jahren
What will climate change do in 2050? and who is in politics right now? Climate change is at full throttle here and Angela Merkel has been in power for 16 years.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to only use metal straws and reusable cups.
Dear Tomorrow
I promise to reduce my waste production
Dear Lillyana,
I will continue to work to make the Earth a cleaner and safer place for you to grow and explore.
Dear Tomorrow,
I’m not allowed to talk about climate change around family; as my mom warned me, “climate change is not something that people think about in Mississippi.” But I’m worried for my family’s future.
Dear Alanna and Valeria,
I promise you to keep trying, to keep educating, to keep pushing our elected officials to act and protect your health now and in the future.
To my beloved granddaughters, Margaret and Caroline,
Growing up in Germany, I often wondered what my parents had done to oppose the Nazi regime in the 1930’s that led to WWII. I was so disappointed when I found out how passive they had been. For me, this was formative.
