Dear Future Tate Cook,

We need air, we need food, and we need life. We deserve every one of those, and we take it away from ourselves. Covid-19 is a message, or an effort, keeping us indoors so we don’t go out and destroy the earth. To this day I am 12, almost 13, it’s March 8, the week our school got shut down for this virus. Life isn’t the same, and it never will be. What my age is when I receive this I don’t know, but I do know that things will be different. If I do receive this and my dumb self didn’t do anything to get me killed, then I have one question, how was my life in your eyes? Was it a smooth path? Was it hard? And most of all, what is the status of the ones I love.?

Dear Tomorrow,

I have solar and will be getting an electric car next week
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise I will encourage everyone to get OUT of their cars and onto public transit.
 

Al mio piccolo, grandissimo bambino,

Hai compiuto da poco 1 anno e giusto ieri hanno annunciato la scoperta di 7 pianeti che potrebbero racchiudere in essi la possibilità di sviluppare, o aver già sviluppato, vita a livello organico.
 

My future husband,

I want us to read this in future time and remember all the senses and views we witnessed.
 

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 Nuriel, Eliran, and Rotem,

Sometimes I think we will never make it, but I know we must keep trying.
 

Dear Matthew, Sam, and Sophie,

There is a promise in the Bible: ‘I shall restore the years that the locusts have eaten’ and that points to a promise of complete healing and restoration. But until that comes I intend to do my best to ‘save the planet’ in whatever way I can, and I encourage you to do the same.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

This is just the beginning. It’s the accrual of little seeds of change that will lead to the tree of revolution.
 

To my precious grandchildren, Emma, Maya, Maddie and Will,

With love and a great hope for the future, a future that will be healthy and sustainable for you, my precious grandchildren.
 

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.”
 

To My Future Children,

I hope by 2050, our society has taken initiative to be producing energy solely through renewable sources.
 

To my dear son,

Last year most of the world’s reefs turned white at some point, but because it was underwater you and your friends didn’t see.
