Dear My Future Children,

Hi! Its me, your mom. Or at least I hope I’m a mom. Right now I’m 14 years old. We are in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. I am getting prepared for high school currently. Its a pretty scary thought to think I am about to start my future next fall. I want to do good so badly so I can provide the future you all deserve. I will try my hardest to get our family set up in a way where we don’t have to worry about money, I want to be successful for you.

My hope for the future is that I am a successful nurse or doctor of some kind. I hope by this time that I am a mom, I want lots of kids so hopefully thats the case. I am married hopefully and my children have a relationship with their family and Jesus.

I promise to work my hardest in school and save money and get a job so you all can grow up and have a future. I will do my best to help with climate change and its my responsibility to set up a future for you all. I love you all so much and I am exited to see what my future brings.

Right now climate change is a pretty scary thought. By the year 2050 there is supposed to be a global food shortage, I hope this is not the case. I think its crucial for my generation to do something about climate change before it becomes a real issue.

More Messages to the Future

 

To the generation after mine,

But when you encounter that resistance–and you will, regularly–know that you must respond just how we have had to these past 50 years. With love, and sternness, and most of all, courage. Because that is what the resistance fears the most. We who came before you promise that we will do the same while we wait for you. Know that you will never be alone.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I will aim to lower my carbon footprint!
 

Dear Tomorrow,

Love, help and build a future in unison that benefits and protects the whole world.
 

Hello spawn,

I am small now littles and I may be small forever but in my small ways I will fight for you.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

To my great-great grandchildren,

I don’t know your name
or even if you’re alive,
but I’m doing all I can
to make sure you survive.

I’m your great- great grandmother

in a world far different
from the one you must know.
 

Dear Tanuj,

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

Dear old dude Mårten,

I know that the 2019 version of me (today that is) wished and hoped for that I did all within my power to turn the world around without loosing sight on the beauty of being alive.
 

Dear Lucy,

The clock ticks, time passes, and the earth and all of its inhabitants move closer to dangerous boundaries we can dimly discern but cannot see clearly.

 

My darling Cassidy,

I know I need to write this to you, and I don’t want to because it makes me so sad. I have been desperately avoiding my feelings about climate change, for many years, but especially and with greater intensity every year since you were born.
 

Dear Gabriel,

“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, Nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” – The Lorax
 

Dear Maya, Emilio and Daniel,

We thought that the world was an endless supply of whatever we wanted… I know it sounds hard to believe, but that is the way it was.
