Dear Tomorrow,

Take advantage of the resources that are available to you. Do not think to yourself that you cannot make an impact because you are only one person. The power of one is greater than the power of none. Start to make environmentally conscious decisions now, so later on you are not telling yourself I wish I had started earlier. Apply that to everything you do in your life, take advantage and live in the moment, so you can live in a better tomorrow. When you first get your license, I know what it’s like to have your friends in the car and you want to drive fast to look cool. It’s not worth it, you’re burning way more gas to only be a few minutes early, at the risk of your own and your friends lives. At one point in your life you will tell your 20 year old broke self, “Damn, I wish I bought a car that didn’t eat up so much gas, so I could have more money to go out with my friends.” Get the environmentally friendly car, it will make a huge difference on your wallet, and you can feel GOOD about where you want to go by knowing you are making an impact!

To the wonder,

Dear tomorrow, thank you for letting me ride the wave of wonder that reaches toward you for all generations of all species to come.
 

Dear AC,

I think a lot about where the right place to live is.
 

Dear Samuel, Willa, and Ben,

To the core of my being, and only through the power of community, I will honor the voices of the youth who are pleading, “Don’t burn my future.” Samuel, Willa, and Ben, your little voices I know, will join that chorus soon enough.
 

Dear tomorrow,

Unfortunately, our selfishness and excessive greed have closed our eyes to the well-being of the planet, and it has suffered the consequences.
 

Dear Madeleine,

First of all I hope we succeeded in our dream that yours is a better world than the world of 2021. Today, the forests are burning, the sea levels are rising and wild weather is everywhere. But we are working hard and I’m confident we will succeed.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to recycle and compost.
 

Dear Me of 2050,

I promise that I will plant more trees in places where there are none.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to sign up for 100% renewable energy.
 

Dear Isaiah,

I am grateful for your soul, for your creativity, for your empathy. All these are precious treasures that you have to offer the world. They will help. I thank you for being in this world right now, so that you can offer these gifts at a time of transition.
 

Dear Students,

I imagine at this point we have dropped our addiction to coal, gas, and oil and that our environment has made a turn for the better with the solar, wind, and other unimagined (at this point) alternative energy choices are in place.
 

Dear Future Sami Lee,

Everyone currently in life laughs and yells save the bees. We were a bee this year for Halloween and Lucy even came up with a great slogan “get with it honey”.
 

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.
