Don’t make the same mistakes we did. Don’t be as selfish as those who don’t care about what is happening to the earth. Grown ups are trying to move humanity to another planet instead of trying to fix the one we messed up. Global warming is getting worse and there’s more plants and animals dying because of us. We messed up the world not only for us humans but also for other animals and plants. Help us try to fix our mistake because this is the only world we have.
To My Future Children,
Most importantly, I hope you live in a world where science is taken seriously and fact is clearly distinguished from fiction.
Dear Tomorrow,
We want to let others know about how to fight climate crisis.
Dearest Gray,
When I asked you why the purple Violet called to you, you told me it was “magic”. I hope that you can still find the magic of life. I hope, despite everything, it is still in abundance.
To the Three most Beautiful Souls I could ever Know,
I promise to keep your Love at the forefront of my every move. I will make personal changes and I will learn more, so that I can contribute to a healthier environment in a meaningful way.
Dear Tomorrow
I will become the change I wish to see in the world.
Dear Seamus and Tuva,
So it’s 2050. If the good people are winning the greater struggle, fossil fuels are a shamefully long chapter of the past, and there has been a full scale awakening to the need for only renewable, clean energy.
To all the children of the future and those who love them,
While there is still breath in this body I will give of my soul and my time and energy to making the world a better place, for you, and all the beautiful living beings of this world.
Dear Alyssa,
I pray that more and more fathers will realize that to love their children well, they have to love and respect the ecological systems around them too.
Dear future niece or nephew,
We loved hiking, camping, biking, swimming and playing as kids together.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to use my reusable water bottle more often
To my beloved granddaughters, Margaret and Caroline,
Growing up in Germany, I often wondered what my parents had done to oppose the Nazi regime in the 1930’s that led to WWII. I was so disappointed when I found out how passive they had been. For me, this was formative.
Dear Jamie and Jason,
My inspiration was the two of you. It started with thinking about the world you were inheriting and what your future was going to be like. But then you taught me how important it is to listen to you – to listen to young people.
