To Aacia,

I’m so sorry so much stress and abundance precarious things have been handed to you and your generation.  It would be easy to ramble on the various negative impacts global climate change has on our land, animals, and way of life, but it’s harder to find a solution when the causes are greater than individual impact. I hope for you now (meaning the future) industrial industries have found a new way of attaining clean energy and everybody uses that energy.  Although, that seems like a stretch. I am doing my part everyday by using public transportation, limiting my car usage and walking, cutting down on water usage, and mindfully purchasing sustainable resources.  I want your life to not be filled with the stressors climate change infringes upon you. I love you so much and our earth so much.

Dear Earth,

I will keep the air clean so everyone can see the sunset.

 

Dear Amara and Uma,

Maybe you heard about bats? Bats, the carriers of this disease that spread among us like wild fire. I love bats. When I was your age today, sitting in the evening on the back terrace of your grandparent’s home in Ibiza, hundreds of bats would play, dance and sing among the trees.

 

Dear Future Self,

I hope you got your dream job of using your business degree to reduce co2 emissions and promote sustainable energy.

 

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 little one,

In the coming months, we plan to complete a full assessment of our environmental impact online. We hope to discover our biggest areas of resource consumption, learn what we can do better, and create an action plan to improve over the next year.

 

Dear Future,

I hope that things have cooled down. I hope that people and governments have come together to save our earth. I hope that everyone is able to breath clean air, drink clean water and see the beauty in nature that I do. I promise to do my best to take part in repairing the damage we’ve done so that my hopes may come true.

 

Dear Tripp,

I promise to do my part, supporting federal legislation to protect our earth while starting small with projects at home.

 

Dear future me,

If we don’t stop cutting down trees for agriculture and to build houses then the future generations will not think about trees when they hear the word Earth.

 

Dear future family and friends,

This is our house.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to pick up trash at every beach I visit, use metal straws, take quick showers.

 

Dear future me,

I am 19 years old, and I am angry.

 

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.
