To future generations,

In the present, the world is facing a problem where we heavily depend on fossil fuel. The burning of the fossil fuel is the primary cause of the world’s global warming pollution. Especially in the U.S., we use a majority of our energy source for consumerism rather than necessity. Because goods and services are easily accessible, we often forget about the carbon footprint and how it impacts the planet. We can begin by switching to solar energy, avoiding purchasing unnecessary goods, cutting down the amount of meat consumption, reducing transportation or driving electric vehicles. I hope in the next several decades everyone takes part in changing environment before the damages on Earth become irreversible.

AMORI MIEI EMMA DOMINGA E MAMMA AURELIE

Mamma e Papà cercano insieme sempre di darti il meglio però anche tu dovrai fare la tua parte nel mondo.
 

Oh My Lovely Faizan,

I love you my son. You are waking up now. Hopefully tomorrow, more of us will, too.
 

To my wide-eyed warrioresses,

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

Dear friend,

I will fight for this cause and I will never ever give up because we, the youngsters, are the hope.
 

Dear A and C,

You are growing up in a time of immense change. In the last two years alone, we’ve learned so much about big and important issues including climate change and the systemic racism that runs through our institutions.
 

To my daughters,

In order for you two be happy and healthy, we all need to work hard to prevent climate change.
 

To the generation after mine,

But when you encounter that resistance–and you will, regularly–know that you must respond just how we have had to these past 50 years. With love, and sternness, and most of all, courage. Because that is what the resistance fears the most. We who came before you promise that we will do the same while we wait for you. Know that you will never be alone.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to buy organic food and run more and bike more! (I could use the exercise.)
 

Meus filhos,

Devemos conservar nosso planeta. Mas, para se fazer isso, temos que fazer isso juntos. Todos os seres humanos devem estar voltados para cuidar bem do lar em que vivemos e do presente que Deus nos deu para viver: a Terra.
 

My Mini & Lou,

Since I first sat down with these words, a pandemic has erupted. Racial violence is reaching a fever pitch and protests are raging across the nation. It feels like the planet is succumbing to entropy, slipping further into chaos. But I write to you from a time of shifting tides.
 

To my dearest Gabriel,

What gives me hope is what is yet to come, what you will experience in your lifetime.
 

Dearest Gray,

When I asked you why the purple Violet called to you, you told me it was “magic”. I hope that you can still find the magic of life. I hope, despite everything, it is still in abundance.
