To a better future,

Dear Tomorrow,

Today, like yesterday, reflects a world climate filled with distrust and greed. As a result, our planet suffers the consequences and is dying. Our planet’s climate has turned on us and their is no one to blame but ourselves. We will be the death of our amazing epic wholesome home. I can’t stop thinking about climate change and what comes next. Awareness has only gone so far.

There have always been outdated ideals governing the future of our nation. It feels as though the skeptics of this world are hellbound on disproving the science and facts. Skeptics such as President Donald J. Trump, aren’t just filled with distrust but are also compelled by greed. He chooses to disband all ecological protection policies for nothing more than self interest and wealth. We are doing nothing to make tomorrow a survivable, viable future for us and the next generations.

Despite all of the crumbling circumstances that make up our present, I can’t help but be optimistic. Tomorrow will happen and keep happening for years to come. I know this because I am the next generation. We believe stronger and work harder than those before us to protect those who need help and value fairness and tolerance. Its a long road ahead to make our world a greener place but it will happen. Already, our voices are being heard, for we refuse to be silenced. Our call to action has been declared. We are and continue to be the change; so, don’t worry world, I’ll see you tomorrow.

More Messages to the Future

 

Dear Me,

Today, I promise to keep my spaces clean and my environment cleaner.
 

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.
 

Dear Granddaughter Rosalia,

This is my heritage for you my beautiful cacheticos de melon.
 

Dear Potential Future Kiddo,

To think that my choices of sustainable commuting, eating a plant based diet, and working on our City’s zero waste program likely pale in comparison to the impact of not having a baby is nothing short of devastating.  Does it make me a bad environmentalist to honor my maternal instincts?
 

Dear Erica and Matthew,

I want you to be able to bring your kids to Tahoe and experience the same clarity that you had as a child.
 

Dear future generations,

Young people are making a lot of noise and politicians are now listening.
 

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
 

Dear Alex and Vivian,

This is my most important work.
 

I won’t leave my lights on.
 

Dear Child,

Hope we get to have that snowball fight I always dreamed we’d have.
 

For those who come after us,

This is for the countless children I already see suffering the impact of climate change around the world, and the generations to follow.
 

Dear girls,

I love you and I care deeply about your future.
