Dear Mark,

I hope this message finds you well. I hope you are content and at peace. Most importantly I hope you continued to be a person of conscious and action. Remember how you started off small with the homestead, the chickens and ducks? I know you remember Garfunkel. I hope you have achieved your goal of spreading the ideas and goals of sustainability to others. First your immediate circle, then community and more. Did you build that permaculture farm? Did you build that net zero home? That net positive community? I hope you achieved all these goals, but if you didn’t yet, remember it’s never too late. Keep making progress and keep your head up.

More Messages to the Future

 

My Dear Paloma,

I’m going to commit to raising you with your eyes open. Being aware as much as we can, how to better our environment together.

 

The gift for next generation,

To save the big world, perhaps, we should change the mind from myself to my small family to my community.

I promise to care about the planet.

 

Dear Nephew,

I am going to start doing better to have a healthier planet for you to live on.

 

To my beloved granddaughters, Margaret and Caroline,

Growing up in Germany, I often wondered what my parents had done to oppose the Nazi regime in the 1930’s that led to WWII.  I was so disappointed when I found out how passive they had been. For me, this was formative.

 

Dear Gabriel,

One day ten or twenty years from now, when you look back from the future, you will be able to clearly see the entire path.

 

Dear Generations to Be,

If we could all slow down, look around and connect: with each other, the Earth, the sky, the plants and rocks and animals, then maybe we can all remember to treat everyone and everything with respect and live in love.

 

Dear Spike, Loulou and Yoshua,

I’m going to start a campaign to try to convince everybody in the Netherlands to not eat meat one day a week.

 

Dear my future family,

I will promise to help climate change as much as I can.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to stop using a plastic straw.

 

Dear Kai and Leah,

I want you to feel awestruck like I do. It is important to feel small sometimes, to feel the weight of reality, to recognize the scale of a challenge, to see where you fit and what you are up against. This is the case with climate change.

 

Dear friends,

We need to rethink our consumption habits in order to reduce the impacts on the environment.
