It is currently 2021 and climate change just keeps getting worse and the world keeps getting unhealthier. To keep this planet healthy I promise to cut down on using bottled water and using reusable water bottles. I will also take the bus and ride my bike more often instead of taking the car.
Dear Llewyn, beloved grandson …
I can only say that I devoted myself to doing as much as I could to make it better, to provide for a just transition, and to fight those forces that continued to exploit the Eaarth with extractive methods, methods that always also included oppressing some people–because those doing the oppression believed that they were better and deserved more.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to shop at more farmer’s markets.

Dear Madeleine,
First of all I hope we succeeded in our dream that yours is a better world than the world of 2021. Today, the forests are burning, the sea levels are rising and wild weather is everywhere. But we are working hard and I’m confident we will succeed.
Dear Ezmae,
As I write this, I consider giving up as it sometimes seems that all is lost. But then I think of you.
Dear June and Colin,
I’m sad and angry that collectively more has not been done to this date. And that still with such dire warnings, obvious impacts, those in power are acting far too slowly.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to pick up trash at every beach I visit, use metal straws, take quick showers.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to put in a rain catcher tank.
Dear Tomorrow,
Awareness is key. Learning about this issue can seem like a small effort compared to other actions, but it’s the most important.
Dear Evan,
What has most inspired me to act is wanting to be able to look you in the eye and say, “When I became aware of the existential threat of climate change, I did all I could.” Despite my pessimism, I act in the hope it can make a difference for future generations and all the precious life on our fragile planet.
Minhas lindas,
As causas das mudanças no clima são tão profundas e envolvem tanta gente e tantos lugares.
Dear Leo,
Last week I took you to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline.
