Dear Sinchi,

Hi beautiful. How have you been doing? Did you finish high school? Pass? Get into your wanted uni? Are you a journalist now? A teacher? Are you perhaps a doctor? (Haha you and I both know that isn’t happening). 

I hope you’ve been doing well. I am writing this to you or to me, to us to talk to you about something I want you to do. The world is changing and it is happening fast. I am sure that by the time you read this, there’ll be a lot less nature and a lot more scary tall buildings. I want you to understand how significant one person’s actions can have on the environment. Seriously, donate, adopt an animal, go on a trip and help out somewhere in the world. I genuinely hope you are doing ok. In the midst of everything that is happening in the world, it is so important for you to maintain yourself and continue being the strangely intriguing person you are. I want you to remember the parts of life that matter the most. Aside from family and friends, there is the whole earth you are living on right now, and changes need to happen. We both know that politics isn’t our area of expertise, but I urge you to speak yourself. I want you to do one of the things I told you, the more the better. Remember how we used to go and play at the park, or freak out yet have the best time at Somersby Waterfalls? Don’t let technology and its advancements make you forget parts of life that have shaped the person you are today. 

Hey Sinchi, You nice. Keep going.

P.S. If you are a journalist, have you done ANYTHING about BTS? Do you still love them? Please tell me you do? Have you travelled to places? Bora Bora? 

xx Probably the better version of you 🙂

More Messages to the Future

 

To my children,

I hope that the fervor that is building continues to build and spread and that the world has made progress to minimize the effects of our past actions.

 

To my Children,

As you look through your window, I hope you will see a bright future. I hope you dream big, and that you have the courage, drive, and fortitude to do everything you can to achieve those dreams.

 

Dear Evan,

We want your future family to enjoy the same beautiful places we enjoyed.

 

Minha pequena Nicole ainda não nos conhecemos, mas já te amo

Deixo para você o meu quintal onde o ar é perfumado pelas flores e árvores, a terra dá frutos e flores além de abrigar muitos bichinhos, a água é utilizada com consciência e o ser humano é respeitado e tratado como alguém que depende da natureza para VIVER.

 

to my dearest children,

Our future is being made now, and I promise to do everything in my power to make yours safe.

 

To my daughters,

In order for you two be happy and healthy, we all need to work hard to prevent climate change.

 

Dear Sadie,

You are young and have a rich future ahead of you. I am retired and aiming for a high quality of cultural life and comfort with whatever time remains to me. I do not want to see a world whose elders sacrifice your future for their short-term needs and personal gain. So it’s up to you and me to speak out.

 

Loved One,

That we all have a role to play no matter how small, we all can make a difference.

 

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.

 

I pledge to use less plastic!

 

dear me in 2030,

I am smelling burning plastic!

 

Dear Devon and Chloe

I hope that my work helping to make your schools more sustainable will be something you carry on as you grow older.
