My hope for you is that all our legislative efforts and care for the environment makes a difference so that we can wipe asthma out of our family.
I hope this note finds you having an amazing day and enjoying whatever Chicago weather has to offer.
As you know, mommy, has bad asthma and it has been getting worse over the years. My hope for you is that all our legislative efforts and care for the environment makes a difference so that we can wipe asthma out of our family.
I love you and can’t wait to enjoy our world with you more and more.
Big hugs,
Alexandra, Al, Mommy
Dear old dude Mårten,
I know that the 2019 version of me (today that is) wished and hoped for that I did all within my power to turn the world around without loosing sight on the beauty of being alive.
Dear Jackson,
I feel deeply that it is my moral obligation as your Mom to protect your future and allow you to inherit a clean and healthy planet.
Dear World,
The environment is important – take care of your actions to not destroy it starting from now.
Dear Future Self,
More than getting through a global pandemic that has already taken hundreds of thousands of lives around the world, our true feat is even larger: to secure our long-term health and the health of the ecosystems upon which we depend for life. To do that, we have to cut our emissions in half in the next ten years, and continue to reduce it beyond that. And to succeed in that, we need to fundamentally shift the way we do EVERYTHING.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to buy organic food and run more and bike more! (I could use the exercise.)
Dear Future Ryan,
I promise to be a knight in the campaign of truth seeking.
Dear Children and Grandchildren,
I see a world full of hope fueled by the desire for change.
Dear my future family,
I will promise to help climate change as much as I can.
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.
Dear Nieces and Nephews,
I tried.
My dearest Paloma Bear,
I want the very best for you and for generations to come. There is only one planet earth. Your mommy and I will make a genuine effort to make an impact to protect it for you.
Dear Tomorrow,
We only have 11 years left until the damage done by climate change is irreversible.
