Dear Future Self,

It’s 2019 and climate change has had a large effect over many people in many different forms. Climate change caused by fossil fuels and Carbon Dioxide Emissions. Scientists believe that climate change has been melting glaciers in the arctic and in Antarctica and causing many natural disasters such as large hurricanes. Recently, the Amazon, the world’s largest rainforest has been burning to increase land for farmers and industrial companies. Sea levels have been rising and coastlines have diminished. Many people still disregard climate change and if we don’t do anything to stop it soon, it will have catastrophic irreversible effects on our planet.

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.

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

All you can do is your best. You can encourage the same in others. You can admit your mistakes and those of your ancestors. You can learn from them, and help however you can. I’ll do the same. I promise.

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to become more educated on the global issues that face populations I can’t see

 

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.

 

Querida Futuro Yo,

Quiero que puedas decirme que lo hemos logrado, y que el mundo hoy es un poquito mejor porque nosotras pusimos de nuestra parte.
