Dear Hannah,

It is hard to imagine a life outside of the technology and society we as humans have given ourselves. What you may not be aware of, is that humankind is slowly killing the Earth, and creating irreversible climate change. Rainforests are now desserts, there is an abundance of carbon our planet can’t handle, and we are endangering every species we read about in children’s books. I hope your generation and mine are practicing more sustainable way to eat, transport, and produce products. We have to uphold our promise to the Earth and our community that we will do better. We are a part of nature, so we have to save nature to save us.

More Messages to the Future

 

Querido amanhã,

Sempre é bom ajudar a natureza.
 

To my future self,

It is today on March 6th, 2017 that you have made the decision to make a difference in this world.
 

To my dear children in the year 2050,

I don’t wish to go backwards, but I do wish we would slow down and design our brave new world with more care.
 

Dear grandchild,

There is a place on this planet called the Amazon, and I don’t mean the online shopping site (is that still a thing in your time?).
 

Dear Tomorrow and Dearest Lex, 

I do believe that the collective power of everyone’s best efforts can curb the worst effects of climate change, and provide you with a more stable and secure future.
 

Dear Sander,

I pray that you are having a happy life and that you have contributed each year of your life into helping to make our planet healthy, cleaner, thriving and greener- a better place for all people and animals to live.
 

I pledge to use less plastic.
 

Dearest Finlay,

I hope you are healthy and happy and that you feel supported by the ecosystem around you because we are all deeply truly interconnected. We depend on the earth to take care of us, and nature needs us to take care of her in turn. We all need each other.
 

Dear Tristan,

I am doing this to protect you, the food, water, air and biodiversity of a country that I love.
 

Meus filhos,

Devemos conservar nosso planeta. Mas, para se fazer isso, temos que fazer isso juntos. Todos os seres humanos devem estar voltados para cuidar bem do lar em que vivemos e do presente que Deus nos deu para viver: a Terra.
 

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,

I promise I will take short showers, eat less meat, and buy local more often.
