To Future Me,

Dear future. Today is 2017 1st February, 10.26 PM. I’ve seen a movie about climate change, its called Before The Flood. The only thing that I can think of is this movie showed me how far we are from destroying our future and world. The movie is a true inspiration. Right here and now I’m only a poor 14 years old girl who is living in a small house with 7 people in it and 4 bedrooms, and dreaming something big, saving our world and become a successful person. I’m sorry if I’m spelling wrong because the laptop is Norwegian language and it’s kind of hard to write English. I just want to say. You can do it, save the world, save people who need help, save the future. We all need faith in ourselves and the world. It’s always the way out of the nightmares. I only hope maybe one day I can be one of the people who saved thousands of life. As Leonardo said “I do not take this world for granted” and you shall not do it either. In 2030 I hope I’m a good person who’s living the life happily. I may write some few more letters since its late and I’m tired so I’m not really so sure what I’m writing.

Dear Darlings,

I commit to you to change one thing a year in our lifestyle to live more environmentally friendly.

I hope with effective action to combat this climate change will we have a better world in the future.
 

Dear future child whatever your name is,

Climate change right now is really bad, I’m writing this during the COP26 conference in Glasgow (which is an hour away) and I’m listening to politicians talking about promises for the future. “If we fail, future generations will never forgive us.” -Boris Johnson
 

Dear Students,

I imagine at this point we have dropped our addiction to coal, gas, and oil and that our environment has made a turn for the better with the solar, wind, and other unimagined (at this point) alternative energy choices are in place.
 

My darling Cassidy,

I know I need to write this to you, and I don’t want to because it makes me so sad. I have been desperately avoiding my feelings about climate change, for many years, but especially and with greater intensity every year since you were born.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to use my reusable water bottle more often
 

Dear Birds,

will continue championing land preservation and the restoration of woodland, prairie and wetland habitats. I will not stop advocating for “bird friendly” legislation to make cities safer for your passage.
 

Dear future loved ones,

As I sit here and write to you, I’d like to share with you something more horrifying than a few boos – our current home, Earth.
 

Dear Future Generations,

Dear Future Generations,
 

I pledge to stop using plastic bags.
 

Dear Alyssa,

I pray that more and more fathers will realize that to love their children well, they have to love and respect the ecological systems around them too.
 

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.
