The world is not what we expected. We are trying our best to keep it alive and to keep us alive. I am going to be honest, the thought of this world ending before we do is quite scary, and it’s what is making me drive to help the world more. I hope you are well and that you keep pursuing your dream. Lots of love.
Dear Lillyana,
I will continue to work to make the Earth a cleaner and safer place for you to grow and explore.
Jeremy M,
My promise is to work to protest carbon emissions.
Dear Tomorrow
I promise to reduce my waste production
Dear Future Kids Like Me,
What I hope for future kids like me is that they continue to ride the groundswell of climate change support all the way into action.
Dear Llewyn, beloved grandson …
I can only say that I devoted myself to doing as much as I could to make it better, to provide for a just transition, and to fight those forces that continued to exploit the Eaarth with extractive methods, methods that always also included oppressing some people–because those doing the oppression believed that they were better and deserved more.
Dear Tomorrow,
And, if this summer has taught me anything, I am content (because I have to be) living in this limbo, this seemingly endless waiting for the opportunity to change, when really the opportunity exists within our very selves all along.
Dear Darlings,
I commit to you to change one thing a year in our lifestyle to live more environmentally friendly.
Dear Victoria, sugar pie honey bunch, chiquita loquita,
How can I look at your bright eyes and light dance and tell you we are facing a war?
To my precious children
I want clean air, clean energy and muddy feet for you. I want this for all children.
Aos meus sobrinhos queridos, Ana Laura, Luis Carlos e Helloísa,
Talvez eu não esteja viva para ver alguma mudança, mas espero que vocês vejam e tenham um mundo melhor em 2050. Plantei um ipê rosa e outro amarelo, que eles estejam florindo até 2050.
Annalu minha filha amada,
Espero de coração que, no futuro, você possa olhar para trás e se orgulhar muito dos pais que teve.
To anyone who has heard my music,
I promise to care about the planet.
