Dear People of 2050,

Hello future bright minds of the next century. It is the year 2019 and on my end I just woke up to a cold then hot November 25th. It hasn’t been as cold as it should be yet most people at the moment don’t seem to care. I am not sure if anyone in the year 2050 is experiencing this hot cold/hot weather. I sure hope by then our north pole has been fully restored to it’s prominent snow conditions and not a pile of mud. My pledge to stop driving my car as much to stop my car from emitting more carbons into the atmosphere and I pledge to eat less beef so maybe less cows are slaughtered in their massive polluted process. My kids and grandkids will adopt a whole new greener life with solar and wind energy. I’m hoping by then in 2050 I may be still alive to see just how much we have progressed maybe community gardens will be more common in larger cities. I just started my own garden in my backyard so I would be less dependent on buying foods that have travelled far. So I wish you all the best in the year 2050 if I’m dead then remember that this planet is the only one we got.

More Messages to the Future

 

Dear Future Me,

I promise that I will change my behavior to benefit our trees.

 

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.

 

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.

 

To My Dear Grandchildren,

Be assured that in the upcoming election, I will cast my vote for your future – for elected officials that recognize climate risks and are willing to promote and vote for legislation that will stop environmental damage and begin to heal our planet.

 

Filhota,

Espero de verdade saber contribuir para legá-la inteira para você, e que todos saibamos fazer isso em conjunto também.

 

To my daughter and son,

Surrounded by scientists who shared my fears and visions, I often had a hard time to accept that outside our small community climate change received marginal attention.

 

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 Tomorrow,

I promise to work with my family and neighbors to reduce carbon output.

 

Hello spawn,

I am small now littles and I may be small forever but in my small ways I will fight for you.

 

Dear Tanuj,

The time has come to question ourselves as citizens about our own actions and the legacy we are leaving behind.

 

Dear future generations,

I pledge to you now that I will work tirelessly and with all my willpower so you don’t have to live in a world where you have to worry about the next storm.

 

Dear Spike, Loulou and Yoshua,

I’m going to start a campaign to try to convince everybody in the Netherlands to not eat meat one day a week.
