I do not know if you’ll ever see the beautiful world that I saw. From the beautiful rainforest to the beautiful ocean. All of those are gone now, all because of us. We knew what we were doing was terrible yet we never did anything to stop it. And for that I’m Sorry. I hope you can learn from all of our mistakes and recreate the beautiful world that I once saw. I know you can do it.
We will look back on our time here and ask, “What did I do?”
If we truly live our present moment, maybe you’ll have a future.
Dear Society,
If we work together to spread the awareness of what is occurring today, we will be able to prevent it from continuing into the tomorrow.
Querida Alê,
Por você idealizei um mundo melhor e lutei incessantemente por ele.
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 Children and Grandchildren,
I see a world full of hope fueled by the desire for change.
Dear Erica and Matthew,
I want you to be able to bring your kids to Tahoe and experience the same clarity that you had as a child.
To all the children of the future and those who love them,
While there is still breath in this body I will give of my soul and my time and energy to making the world a better place, for you, and all the beautiful living beings of this world.
To My Grandchildren,
It’s my hope that the following will be helpful as you navigate your futures. These are the confessions of a climate activist:
Dear Tanuj,
The time has come to question ourselves as citizens about our own actions and the legacy we are leaving behind.
My dearest Paloma Bear,
I want the very best for you and for generations to come. There is only one planet earth. Your mommy and I will make a genuine effort to make an impact to protect it for you.
Dear Tomorrow
Colin
Dear Gorasia descendants,
I will do all that I can, and hope my fellow inhabitants join my pursuit, to nurture this planet.
