Dear Future Self,

I have no clue what your life is going to be like. I don’t know what you’ll be doing, if you’ll have created a family of your own, or what type of world you are living in. Will you be writing music, working for an environmental organization, be a therapist? I hope that you have found something that you are passionate about; that thing that keeps you energized even after long days of work, that sense of purpose.

I hope if you want to, you can bring children safely into this world and not have to worry about bringing them up in a safe planet. I hope you see the best in people and have overcome some of your negative thinking. I hope you surround yourself by loving, kind, and caring people. I hope you can still speak spanish. I hope you don’t have to deal with anymore pandemics.

Best,
RD

To my darling ones,

And it’s not that I don’t care. I care deeply. For you three, and the families I hope you will have one day; for the many beautiful places I have had the privilege to know, places which take my breath away, that fill my heart with a bursting joy and connectedness to something so much greater than I, places I know may be quite different when you are my age
 

Dear future Child or Grandchild,

Climate is undeniably changing but it is not top priority.
 

Dear Alyssa,

I pray that more and more fathers will realize that to love their children well, they have to love and respect the ecological systems around them too.
 

Dear X—, Dear A—,

As with our struggles to eliminate police brutality, as with hate crimes, so it is with climate change – there are actually a lot of people out there who care.
 

To my future children,

I am doing everything I can because I want the footprint that I leave behind to be my feet in the sand on a beach and not a carbon one.
