First and foremost I love you and I don’t even know you yet but I know you’re amazing. I really hope we fixed the climate mess that the generation before me wrecked. I’m sorry if it didn’t, but I promise you I have and will live a very sustainable life. I love you.
With love, Your Mother
Dear Tomorrow,

Dear me,
Remember how passionate you felt at 20, I hope you keep that passion in you and are still working on climate 30 years from now.

Dear Matthew, Sam, and Sophie,
There is a promise in the Bible: ‘I shall restore the years that the locusts have eaten’ and that points to a promise of complete healing and restoration. But until that comes I intend to do my best to ‘save the planet’ in whatever way I can, and I encourage you to do the same.
I pledge to use less plastic!

Fighting for a system that rewards care for people and planet over profit.
Dear Jamie and Jason,
My inspiration was the two of you. It started with thinking about the world you were inheriting and what your future was going to be like. But then you taught me how important it is to listen to you – to listen to young people.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to be creative – make art!
Dear ACS, LG, CM, MCD, AH, MS, AS, GL, and ERD,
I commit to demanding that politicians that want my vote, my time, my substantial help and expertise are people who seek to address climate change seriously and talk about it boldly.
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 Alex and Vivian,
This is my most important work.
