Dear next generation,

As we see with our own eyes, the world continues to change while we continue to neglect it. As a child, the world and nature seem to be filled with an adventure that will always be there for us. However, as we grow older we find that this may not be so true. I grew up being able to enjoy the outdoors and I hope you all are able to same the same thing. I promise to help others see that we must make a change in our daily lives in order to ensure that our future generations are able to enjoy the outdoors the same way we have.

Dear tomorrow,

The blue sky will no longer be grey, and the bleak clouds will be vibrant.

I promise you, I am going to do everything I can to save this planet for you. I won’t let you down, I swear.

 

Dear Finley,

I wonder if in 2050 we will be looking at a future where fear from the changes at hand has caused people to hate rather than love and provide hope. Perhaps in that world we will we no longer comprehend the biblical texts in a meaningful way. Will climate change be the end of the epoch of God?

 

Dear Great Grandchildren,

If you are reading this, you probably inherited my fascination with ancestry, and the way it uncovers incredible stories of unlikely survival.

 

Caro Giovanni,

Dobbiamo aiutare nel conservare il bello che c’è nel nostro pianeta.

 

Dear Daughter,

Even when contemplating huge global-historical issues — especially then — it’s important to stay grounded in the present time and place, the specific here and now, and the minute affairs of everyday interpersonal relations.

 

To My Friends, Family and Future Grandchildren,

I realize my reflection of the past, current and future state of the environment paints a grim and pessimistic picture, but I feel optimistic in our ability to turn planet Earth’s fate around if we all work together and commit to making a change.
