Hi future world,

I am not sure about what is going to happen in 2050, because now is just 2022, but I guess that if the problem of global warming didn’t get fixed, the world will be full of natural disasters, storms, typhoons, earthquakes, dry outs. And the summer gets warmer and warmer, with high temperatures everywhere. I really don’t know how can I show my apologies to you, but I really feel sorry about that.

I knew about this global warming problem when I was in primary school, about seven years ago, and I had tried to not use so much air conditioning and try to save more resources. One of my teachers said to me: I don’t understand what you’re worried about, it’s far from us. I don’t know how many people are still thinking in the same way as my teacher does, but people who think like that, know they also think the same way: it’s too far for us.

Even though I still think that I will try to stop this global warming and climate change the best I can, it’s not only for humans but also for the animals which are living with us, on the same planet.

Dear June and Colin,

I’m sad and angry that collectively more has not been done to this date. And that still with such dire warnings, obvious impacts, those in power are acting far too slowly.
 

The gift for next generation,

To save the big world, perhaps, we should change the mind from myself to my small family to my community.
 

I pledge to stop using plastic bags.
 

To my wide-eyed warrioresses,

Since my two daughters emerged into this world, all of my tomorrows have become more dear.

Querida Futuro Yo,

Quiero que puedas decirme que lo hemos logrado, y que el mundo hoy es un poquito mejor porque nosotras pusimos de nuestra parte.
 

Dearest Finlay,

I hope you are healthy and happy and that you feel supported by the ecosystem around you because we are all deeply truly interconnected. We depend on the earth to take care of us, and nature needs us to take care of her in turn. We all need each other.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to ditch all the natural gas and go all electric with my home!

We want a safe and beautiful world for you, little Caleb, and for your children and grandchildren. We promise to do our part.
 

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.
 

To what we’ve overcome.

The first step would be in overcoming ourselves. Because whether we end up fading into obscurity, or thriving in prosperity, we will overcome ourselves.
 

Dear Sinchi,

The world is changing and it is happening fast.
