Hey Everyone!

I don’t know what is going to come of climate change and, as a fourteen year old girl, I’m scared.

Last year, thanks to climate change, wildfires already got close to my house in Nelson, NZ. This year, the smoke from Australia is making my lungs clammy.

Life for me is pretty good right now (aside from the fear I push away), but I know others are suffering. I don’t know how to make a difference. I feel helpless while the people in charge are killing my future by not believing in climate change.

I know this is off topic but for all of you in the future, I hope you have found equality and happiness. I hope climate change hasn’t ruined you.

More Messages to the Future

 

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 Grandchild,

I now feel less overwhelmed and powerless, and I am determined to fight for our planet and your future.

 

Dear AC,

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

 

My future husband,

I want us to read this in future time and remember all the senses and views we witnessed.

 

Dear girls,

I love you and I care deeply about your future.

 

Querida Alê,

Por você idealizei um mundo melhor e lutei incessantemente por ele.

 

Dear Future Family,

As I’m sitting here trying to think of the best words to say to you all, I am thinking of one major thing: that I can only hope that you all get to experience the incredible beauty created by our planet.

 

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 Kids,

My mistake was thinking I needed to give you more to be a good Mom. Recently your aunt asked me what my favorite toy was growing up. I gulped, I didn’t have one- it was the outdoors, sliding down a ravine of leaves with my Dad, skiing and camping. Today is October 12th, 2021 and I am still going to be giving you a lot, it’s going to look a little different – love, experiences, education and a healthy planet.

 

Dear Kids,

I know it’s long past time to wake up. You deserve a future in which drought, famine, and war are not all your children ever know; the choices my generation makes now will determine your future.

 

Dear love,

The world is facing some serious crises right now as Viral pandemic and war situation between Ukraine and Russia.

 

Dear sons,

I’ve been so busy since 2012 working towards getting a price on carbon.
