Dear Parks,

You’re only 15 months old and already I fear for the world you’ll know. I’ve been doing my best over the past few years to lessen my impact on the planet, but I know there’s more that I can do to give you a better future. I promise to talk to more people, to take more initiatives, to FOCUS on how serious this problem is instead of believing people with more power will make changes. Because they haven’t and they aren’t. They have other priorities (the wrong ones, in my opinion) and I need to do more. I love you so much and hope that the world you live in at my age is BETTER than the one I live in now.

More Messages to the Future

 

Dear Darlings,

I commit to you to change one thing a year in our lifestyle to live more environmentally friendly.
 

Dear Students,

I imagine at this point we have dropped our addiction to coal, gas, and oil and that our environment has made a turn for the better with the solar, wind, and other unimagined (at this point) alternative energy choices are in place.
 

To all the people here on earth,

Who knows what the future would look like? or what will happened in the future? No one knows right? That’s why it it’s scary because we don’t know what lies ahead. We couldn’t stop the future but we can always change it.
 

My dear granddaughter Christy,

My own curiosity and knowing what a caring, aware young woman you are help me override despair.
 

Dear Finn and Cy,

I think a lot about what you might be like when you grow up and about what kind of world you will live in.
 

Dear Tomorrow

I promise to encourage myself and others to recycle more.
 

I promise to plant more flowers.
 

Son,

Make the most of every day because remember yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift.
 

To my Dad,

I hope on this Father’s Day, my 24th birthday, and the rest of days, we remember that the most basic part of life is living happy with the ones we love. Acting every day against climate change will allow us to keep that simple piece of humanity.
 

Dear future niece or nephew,

We loved hiking, camping, biking, swimming and playing as kids together.
 

dear me in 2030,

I am smelling burning plastic!
 

Future Self & Ka’iulani,

We promise to reduce the amount of carbon we use on a daily basis.
