This year I became a little more aware of how humanity has left nature and hurt it. I really hope that by 2050 when someone reads this letter, we will have solved this problem. I think of all the beautiful things like skiing or any other winter sport which will not be possible in 30 years if we are not aware of our environmental consciousness. So we have to change something to keep and safe the great opportunities offered by our planet.
Dear Samuel, Willa, and Ben,
To the core of my being, and only through the power of community, I will honor the voices of the youth who are pleading, “Don’t burn my future.” Samuel, Willa, and Ben, your little voices I know, will join that chorus soon enough.
Dear Lincoln,
I wanted to let you know that in 2019 that there were real struggles with the health of our planet.
Dear friends,
Rather than exploit it, destroy it, poison it, why don’t we just enhance the beauty of it, guard it, and love it?
dear tomorrow,
I hope that the state of the environment becomes a part of everyday discourse.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to shop at more farmer’s markets.
My Dear Grandchildren,
In writing this letter to you, I am searching for ways to make my connection and commitment to you more present in my current experience
To my Children,
As you look through your window, I hope you will see a bright future. I hope you dream big, and that you have the courage, drive, and fortitude to do everything you can to achieve those dreams.
dear me in 2030,
I am smelling burning plastic!
Dear Ellis,
So, dear heart, I am doing everything I can as the situation worsens.
Dear Grandchildren,
So here we are. In 2022 millions of people are suffering from the climate catastrophes, killing pollution and pandemic, not mentioning about poverty, gender and social injustice, racism, wars and dictatorships that can go on as long as bad people in power are allowed to grab our natural resources.
Querida Emanoely,
Gostaria que você se lembrasse das lições simples que mamãe e papai te ensinou, como cuidar das plantas e dos espaços coletivos.
For those who come after us,
This is for the countless children I already see suffering the impact of climate change around the world, and the generations to follow.
