Dear People of 2030, 2050,

It is 2017 and we have destroyed our planet. Climate change has caused some irreversible damages. Our forests are diminishing, our sea levels are rising and washing away land, and we’re losing ecosystems that are home to magnificent creatures that may not last for long. However, I promise to do my best to raise awareness and do whatever I can in order to turn this path around and fix the world for a better life for you, your friends, and family. Hopefully my activism will result in the promise for a safe and clean Earth for you to live on and grow into a strong, smart individual.

More Messages to the Future

 

Queridas crianças do mundo inteiro,

Pedimos que vocês procurem fazer como nós e continuem essa luta de colaborar com nosso planeta: evitando o consumo exagerado, usando a tecnologia para o bem, plantando árvores, economizando água e poluindo menos.

 

Dear future child whatever your name is,

Climate change right now is really bad, I’m writing this during the COP26 conference in Glasgow (which is an hour away) and I’m listening to politicians talking about promises for the future. “If we fail, future generations will never forgive us.” -Boris Johnson

 

Dear Tomorrow,

Be the person who shows up. Be the person who continues to advocate for change because change is possible – it is possible in the most partisan of politics.

 

My future husband,

I want us to read this in future time and remember all the senses and views we witnessed.

 

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 Tomorrow,

I promise I will use less fossil fuels.

 

Dear Future Self,

More than getting through a global pandemic that has already taken hundreds of thousands of lives around the world, our true feat is even larger: to secure our long-term health and the health of the ecosystems upon which we depend for life. To do that, we have to cut our emissions in half in the next ten years, and continue to reduce it beyond that. And to succeed in that, we need to fundamentally shift the way we do EVERYTHING.

 

Dear old dude Mårten,

I know that the 2019 version of me (today that is) wished and hoped for that I did all within my power to turn the world around without loosing sight on the beauty of being alive.

 

Dear Me,

Today, I promise to keep my spaces clean and my environment cleaner.

 

I won’t leave my lights on.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to contact my local officials on passing measures against climate change

 

To my children,

I am working with 350.org on shutting down the coal and unconventional gas industries in our country because I cannot think of a more direct way to protect you, the food, water and biodiversity we all love and rely on.
