To anyone who stumbles upon this,

hello,

My name is Noelle and I am currently a third-year college student at SJSU in the year 2020. I hope that college is free or abolished by the time you are reading this, but I have no preference for which outcome presents itself. I am saddened by the current state of our world and I truly hope you have gotten to see blue skies and clean oceans. The coral reefs are almost completely gone, which saddens me. I hope there are political leaders who are fighting for the preservation of our forests and landmarks, and if they aren’t, I encourage you to still do your part in saving the world. Your voice matters and voting for politicians who will make a positive change for our environment matters. I am going to use my voice and my vote to ensure the safety and preservation of our ecosystems, and I encourage you to do the same. We are going on a steep downhill decline in terms of the well-being of what used to be such a wide variety of species on Earth. I hope to make this world safer and better for you, and i hope you are still working to save the planet!

Best wishes,

Noelle

Dear Eleanor,

It seems silly to saddle yourself with guilt for something that hasn’t happened yet. I don’t want to do that. As of today, I don’t really feel guilty. I guess I just want to make sure I keep doing more, so that when you read this, and ask what I’ve done since then, I can still feel good about my efforts.
