Dear future self,

Hello dev,

I hope you are still doing okay out into whatever year you get this letter. Right now we are in our first year of college, we are still with Dom and we are a little unsure about the future. But that is not important right now, I just promise I will help so the world you know is better. The climate is changing and life is getting scary but I will make a promise to try to help out when I can. I am a bit lazy right now and slow to make huge changes in my life but I promise once I get a better mental state, I will work so hard for you. Not only will I work hard for your future, more importantly for the kids I plan to have. I hope when you get this you are raising beautiful children with Dom. I want a better world for them more than anything. I promise to live sustainably  and take care of myself and the planet to the best of my ability.

love,

Devin from 2019

Dear Future Self,

It was 2020, the year I realized that life is fragile—not just mine, but the entire planet—through immense consumption, pollution, greediness, ignorance, false bliss. This wasn’t the way I wanted to live my life, so I promise to actively make the change.
 

Dear Erica and Matthew,

I want you to be able to bring your kids to Tahoe and experience the same clarity that you had as a child.

I am most sorry we could not work through our differences, and see through the greed, get organized, and do more so that you could have a better life in your 2030 future.
 

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.
 

Dear Gabriel,

A message from co-founder Jill Kubit:
Writing letters to our kids about climate change is hard. It should be.
 

Dear My Future Child,

I want to sculpt a world for you where you can play outside without gas masks, an ocean to swim in without toxins, and a thick lively forest for you to wander.
