Dear Tomorrow,

Your life is as important as mine so I promise you I think of you everyday. I limit driving, use energy saving light bulbs, and keep lights off except in darkness to reduce climate change pollution. I eat vegan to reduce climate change pollution and to move people toward greater humanity. I get people to sign petitions and vote to protect our wonderful world. In my small Colorado town, people fight fracking year after year and I help them. I shop ARC and donate to them to recycle. Seventy percent of my yard is beautiful purple flowers today on May 7, 2016. Flowers feed pollinators here throughout the growing season. Together we are growing a better future. I send my love forward to you from Loveland, Colorado.

Caro me stesso,

Non so dove e con chi sarò nel 2050, spero che sia un anno migliore di quello appena passato .

 

Rachel and Noelle,

I hope in a small way this helps your world.

 

dear me in 2030,

I am smelling burning plastic!

 

Dear Tomorrow,

Don’t use plastic straws!

 

Dear Future Generations,

I promise to make as many changes to my life as possible to make yours as great as mine.

 

To the Future Generations,

I look at my baby niece today. The newest member of our family, just 3 days old. What will be left for her and her grandchildren?

 

Hi buddy,

I can now see that the solutions are there, that a transition of the magnitude that is needed, is possible.

 

Dear future generations,

Young people are making a lot of noise and politicians are now listening.

 

Dear Erica and Matthew,

I want you to be able to bring your kids to Tahoe and experience the same clarity that you had as a child.

 

To the generation after mine,

But when you encounter that resistance–and you will, regularly–know that you must respond just how we have had to these past 50 years. With love, and sternness, and most of all, courage. Because that is what the resistance fears the most. We who came before you promise that we will do the same while we wait for you. Know that you will never be alone.

 

To my children – Chase, Maya and Harlan

I hope that we manage to change the system really soon, while there is still time. So that you are not left with the mess, and trying to fix something that you didn’t cause. I hope we figured out a way to be kind, and caring for others who will suffer more than us. A way to let go of the greed and look at ways we can help others rather than take from them.

 

Dear X—, Dear A—,

As with our struggles to eliminate police brutality, as with hate crimes, so it is with climate change – there are actually a lot of people out there who care.
