Dear next generation,

I am writing this with utter disbelief but with lots of enthusiasm and hope for a better tomorrow. It was today that we humans got the sad news about our earth’s state. We read in the newspapers, magazines and websites that the sperm count was plummeting and the carbon dioxide emissions beyond control. I hope my fellow environmentalists and or Rotarians managed it to make you alive. Please don’t wait to see the adverse effects instead adopt that river, stream, lake or ocean to make the world a better place. I hope you will get to read this.
Hopeful environmentalist and Rotarian Lagat.

More Messages to the Future

 

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 Bella,

I promise that I shall continue to do all that is within my capabilities to leave you a world where there is fairness and justice.
 

Olá Pessoal,

Com essas ideias simples e força de vontade, podemos tornar um mundo, um lugar melhor para se viver, com menos mortes, menos lixo, transforma-lo em um mundo diferente.
 

Dear Potential Future Kiddo,

To think that my choices of sustainable commuting, eating a plant based diet, and working on our City’s zero waste program likely pale in comparison to the impact of not having a baby is nothing short of devastating.  Does it make me a bad environmentalist to honor my maternal instincts?
 

dear future people (:

I am writing this message to you guys. When I look outside my window today, I see a beautiful world that others and myself call “home sweet home.” The trees glimmering in warm sunlight, the air stirring a cool breeze, and the water flowing down rivers are parts of our home Mother Earth.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to reach out to more people to ditch driving and consider using public transportation. I promise to convince Marin markets that sensible policies in density and mixed use planning will further enhance everyone’s quality of life.
 

Dear Nieces, Nephews, & Future Children…

If there is any advice I could give you, it is to believe that although you are one single person in this world, you still have the ability to make a difference in this world.

 

Dear Alba:

There is still a lot of beauty and I will do what I can to keep it from slipping away.
 

To My Future Children,

I hope by 2050, our society has taken initiative to be producing energy solely through renewable sources.
 

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 Tomorrow,

I promise to only use metal straws and reusable cups.
 

Minha pequena Nicole ainda não nos conhecemos, mas já te amo

Deixo para você o meu quintal onde o ar é perfumado pelas flores e árvores, a terra dá frutos e flores além de abrigar muitos bichinhos, a água é utilizada com consciência e o ser humano é respeitado e tratado como alguém que depende da natureza para VIVER.
