Dear Future Self,

I really hope that in the future I become more persistent with recycling. I hope that I am able to not only change my ways of recycling, but my families and hopefully my communities’ ways of recycling. I would like to make a goal to cut meat completely out of my diet in the next few months. After seeing the importance of practicing sustainable acts, I wish to change my habits and better the world not only for myself, but for the future generations. I want to be able to say I made some kind of a difference and lifestyle change. I would love to see myself working on sustainability for hospitals sometime in the near future or with large-scale companies.

More Messages to the Future

 

To My Grandchildren,

It’s my hope that the following will be helpful as you navigate your futures.  These are the confessions of a climate activist:

 

Dear Future Earth,

I promise to promote the growth of clean energy, like solar… For the sake of my grandchildren.

 

Dear Alba:

There is still a lot of beauty and I will do what I can to keep it from slipping away.

 

Pour ma famille,

Il faut trouver le 7ème sens et se battre pour des causes justes, comme l´amour et la liberté.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to try to set up crowd funding for grants to people with realistic proposals to fight climate change.

 

Dear Peyton and Lucas,

I want you to continue to enjoy bright, beautiful, blue skies, gigantic shady trees, chirping birds, scampering squirrels, sparkling creeks and all that this amazing world has to offer!

 

To future Geof,

Cool, now that your jetpack is put away in your garage where you keep your flying car; how did the aliens save us from our own destruction? Did they have this hyper advance vacuum that just sucks all the greenhouse gases out of our atmosphere?

 

Dear You Tomorrow,

What we failed to do, at least early on, was to see how important it was to put those solutions together. To combine into a way forward.

 

Queridos amigos sobrevivientes.

Quiero pensar que ustedes serán la diferencia, que tomaran más actos sobre el asunto y no dejaran que nada los detenga.

 

Our Shared Promise

I will act today so you may have a healthy earth to live on.

 

I pledge to stop using plastic bags.

 

Dear Kids,

I know it’s long past time to wake up. You deserve a future in which drought, famine, and war are not all your children ever know; the choices my generation makes now will determine your future.
