Dear youngsters,

How’s the weather today? I hope it is a sunny day, with the air fresh and aromatic, full of the exuberance and cheerfulness of spring. Also, how are you?

In my world, to be precise, in 2017, our earth is undergoing great danger. The smog blinds the blue sky of my city, the winter is strangely warm, and earthquakes shake people’s confidence on a safe living environment. After watching Mr. DiCaprio’s film Before the Flood (2016), worry and fears grasp my mind. What will our future generation face if we keep harming our planet? How are they going to seek happiness if their world is encompassed by pollution and abnormal climate change? Dear youngsters, I hope when you see these questions, you can tell me that your sky is clear and azure, your sea is clean and sapphire, and your air is pure and fresh.

You are the savior of your own life. Your planet as well, of course. To save our earth, I am doing the following simple things, which can greatly improve our life if you join, too:

  1. Adopt a vegetarian diet.
  2. Sort out kitchen waste from trash.
  3. Buy what you NEED instead of what you WANT.
  4. Buy as fewer imported products as possible.
  5. Share the message of loving our earth by ACTION.

Be brave, my dear youngsters. If your earth is clean and safe, congratulations and keep protecting her. If your earth is like mine, or worse, start saving her at this moment! You are full of strength and possibilities. Your one step can contribute to a larger step of all beings in the world. Be brave and reflect: what does the world mean to me? Do I want to live in a clean, beautiful world or in a damaged, decaying one?

Best wishes and may your heart find the right direction!

More Messages to the Future

 

To my darling ones,

And it’s not that I don’t care. I care deeply. For you three, and the families I hope you will have one day; for the many beautiful places I have had the privilege to know, places which take my breath away, that fill my heart with a bursting joy and connectedness to something so much greater than I, places I know may be quite different when you are my age

 

To my Kids,

I wish you all the best and always make sure that you can be proud of yourself and don’t need status-symbols for feeling nice.

 

To my daughter and son,

Surrounded by scientists who shared my fears and visions, I often had a hard time to accept that outside our small community climate change received marginal attention.

 

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 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.

 

Queridos filhos Heloísa e Henzo,

Tenho muito orgulho da minha função (agente de fiscalização ambiental do Acre) pois é através dela que posso dar um pouco do meu suor, para que no futuro ambos possam ter um lugar melhor para viver.

 

Hello spawn,

I am small now littles and I may be small forever but in my small ways I will fight for you.

 

Dear Future Self,

I am scared of the things happening right now with our planet.

 

To My Dear Grandchildren,

Be assured that in the upcoming election, I will cast my vote for your future – for elected officials that recognize climate risks and are willing to promote and vote for legislation that will stop environmental damage and begin to heal our planet.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

My climate action is to educate youth to create solutions for energy efficiency and conservation opportunities.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

My promise is to continue to dedicate my life, my business, and my future to creating cultures that embrace environmental action not only for our own good, but the good of the countless other species hurting from climate change.

 

Dear Tomorrow and Dearest Lex, 

I do believe that the collective power of everyone’s best efforts can curb the worst effects of climate change, and provide you with a more stable and secure future.
