dear tomorrow,

i am sorry. but i had dreams and goals that i was chasing, a selfish act, perhaps i single handedly couldve been the genius that changed the world, but i never took that path.

i instead wanted things that i have never seen, for the benefit of myself and my future. a truly selfish view in a selfish world. i am a product of the 21st century, a technological revolution of vanity and self interest.

so i am sorry in hindsight, but not sorry enough to have dedicated my life toward it. this cause is too big for one man, too powerful for a group of people. it seems unreachable to the masses and i feel now i am at the tipping point of accepting this fate. letting go of any potential world of irreversible effects.

i hope you are the generation to have figured it out, laughing at this message as if it were taken care of within a few years for you. i hope you have gov’s of sanity and humanitarian effort, a utopia of technology running the world, whilst also saving it.

my life enters its twilight, but as it does, i vow to dedicate my twilight to the cause, to further push the planet into a world of net zero emissions and eons of sustainability if that is even possible.

kind regards.

DTA

Dear Owen and Vivian,

Here’s the biggest secret: I KNOW it will have. We may not realize how, but we have changed the world.
 

Dear Matthew, Sam, and Sophie,

There is a promise in the Bible: ‘I shall restore the years that the locusts have eaten’ and that points to a promise of complete healing and restoration. But until that comes I intend to do my best to ‘save the planet’ in whatever way I can, and I encourage you to do the same.
 

Dear Tara,

Each of us only has so much power and the problem is HUGE, but I worked at this every day.
 

Dear Victoria, sugar pie honey bunch, chiquita loquita,

How can I look at your bright eyes and light dance and tell you we are facing a war?
 

dear future people (:

I hope that people are still enjoying the wonders that nature has to offer.
 

Rachel and Noelle,

I hope in a small way this helps your world.
 

Dear Rowan and Anaka,

If we could talk, I would not be able to bear your gaze as you ask: How could you, the people in a position to change the course of climate change, fail to act?
 

Dear future loved ones,

As I sit here and write to you, I’d like to share with you something more horrifying than a few boos – our current home, Earth.
 

Dear Evie of 2050,

I can feel the change happening — many people are working to transform the world.
 

Dear Thomas,

When you look at me with those big beautiful eyes and that innocent smile, you make me want to fight harder. And I do.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

My climate promise is to use a refillable bottle, bring my own resusable spoon/form wherever I go, use clean personal care products (without chemicals).
 

Dear Kai and Leah,

I want you to feel awestruck like I do. It is important to feel small sometimes, to feel the weight of reality, to recognize the scale of a challenge, to see where you fit and what you are up against. This is the case with climate change.
