Dear future self and family,

It is currently 2021, and we are in the midst of a global pandemic along with climate change. Over this past year in school, I have learned a lot about my impact on the environment, and how the world is responding to unprecedented changes. I hope the issues of our current world have not led you to failure. At this moment in time, climate change keeps getting worse and worse. Both people and animals are dying due to the injustices associated with the environment. As a result, it is impossible to know what tomorrow may bring. Although change seems to be noticeably small, it is accumulating faster than we can physically handle. You deserve to live in an environment that has clean air, a thriving food supply, and a life full of Earth’s natural beauty. With that being said, I promise to replenish more resources than what I take from the environment. I promise to be more sustainable by means of not using plastic, by walking instead of driving to reduce emissions, and by saving water. I also promise to let my voice be heard so that your health and wellness can be prioritized. I hope that all the compromises we are making now allows you to live a life without worry, and that the world is what it is meant to be—peaceful and loving.

Pick up your trash wherever you go!

 

To my Beloved Future Children,

Be fearless – do not be afraid to talk to each other and do not be afraid to fail.

 

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

I haven’t met you yet, but I already know you deserve a better tomorrow.

Dear Future,

I hope that things have cooled down. I hope that people and governments have come together to save our earth. I hope that everyone is able to breath clean air, drink clean water and see the beauty in nature that I do. I promise to do my best to take part in repairing the damage we’ve done so that my hopes may come true.

 

Dear Children,

I wish I had a crystal ball and could peep into it to see you all happy and safe in a world that nourishes you and that is also nourished by you, a world where the resources it provides are as valued as the people in it and not frittered away by greed and power.

 

Dear Future,

“I knew you would want to know how the future turned out. You got so anxious about climate change as we grew older.  By coming back, I thought I could help you with that.”

 

Dear Tomorrow

Stay Cool and Save the Whales

 

Dear Tomorrow,
