Dear Grandchildren,

Hopefully by the time you read this letter our world is a much better place. Hopefully you are able to grow up in a green world that has been improved over and over by the generations before you. You will have halted the negative effects of climate change and reversed the effects that you can. Hopefully by this time politicians will be working together to invest in the most importance resource there is, the planet. There will be nobody who does not believe in climate change. Hopefully the infrastructure in our cities will have become green and sustainable. Hopefully transportation has been transformed with fuels that do not deplete the ozone layer and add chemicals to our air. Hopefully products will be packaged with recyclable materials and will produce much less waste. Hopefully the world has made advancement on the sustainable development goals, and come up with a set of new ones. Hopefully agriculture and food are spread to all corners of the world and the production of sustainable green energy is at an all time high. But if none of this has happened, hopefully you will continue the battle that those before you have fought so hard to win.

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.

I believe this fusion of ecology and economy backed by the digital technology is our great achievement.

The first step would be in overcoming ourselves. Because whether we end up fading into obscurity, or thriving in prosperity, we will overcome ourselves.
 

Dear future self,

I am writing this to keep myself accountable and push myself towards taking action towards a sustainable future. I hope children of the future can still appreciate the wonders that nature and all its beings have to offer, appreciate the beauty in the world around us.
 

Dear Future Ryan,

I promise to be a knight in the campaign of truth seeking.

I am smelling burning plastic!
 

Dear Future Self,

It was 2020, the year I realized that life is fragile—not just mine, but the entire planet—through immense consumption, pollution, greediness, ignorance, false bliss. This wasn’t the way I wanted to live my life, so I promise to actively make the change.
 

Dear Tanuj,

The time has come to question ourselves as citizens about our own actions and the legacy we are leaving behind.
