Hi, my children.
How is the world like right now? I hope you can protect the environment as much as possible. We plant trees now. In the future, green plants will bring us many benefits. In the hot summer, we can go to the big tree to enjoy the cool; when the wind is blowing, the leaves will block the dust; after a rain, the air will become extra fresh.
Pick up your trash wherever you go!
To my daughter and son,
Surrounded by scientists who shared my fears and visions, I often had a hard time to accept that outside our small community climate change received marginal attention.
Dear Brothers & Sisters All Across Mother Earth,
I promise to wholeheartedly live my life with an awareness of my personal impact on our communities and our planet.
Dear Daughter,
Tonight at bedtime, you asked, seemingly out of nowhere, “why are the glaciers disappearing?”
To my brother’s children,
We wondered about how we might be able to eliminate plastics from our day to day routines, and recycled literally everything. We were amazing, you should have seen us. Now and again though, we wondered if these were the right questions.
Dear future generations,
Young people are making a lot of noise and politicians are now listening.
Dear fantastic,
We as the human race are smarter than this struggle at hand and need to rise above large corporate interests and confusion on this topic.
Dear June and Colin,
I’m sad and angry that collectively more has not been done to this date. And that still with such dire warnings, obvious impacts, those in power are acting far too slowly.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise I will bring permaculture designs to my community.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to stop eating beef.
Dear Future,
“I knew you would want to know how the future turned out. You got so anxious about climate change as we grew older. By coming back, I thought I could help you with that.”
Dear old dude Mårten,
I know that the 2019 version of me (today that is) wished and hoped for that I did all within my power to turn the world around without loosing sight on the beauty of being alive.
