To the future me,
I’m starting to think we passed the point where the planet could be saved. Those in power are those who don’t really care and I believe that the planet would thrive without us. Prove me wrong.

Dear Finley,
I wonder if in 2050 we will be looking at a future where fear from the changes at hand has caused people to hate rather than love and provide hope. Perhaps in that world we will we no longer comprehend the biblical texts in a meaningful way. Will climate change be the end of the epoch of God?
Dear Tomorrow,
I will do my part to help ensure that there is an Earth left when we are done borrowing it.
Dear Devon and Chloe
I hope that my work helping to make your schools more sustainable will be something you carry on as you grow older.
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to buy organic food and run more and bike more! (I could use the exercise.)
To My Friends, Family and Future Grandchildren,
I realize my reflection of the past, current and future state of the environment paints a grim and pessimistic picture, but I feel optimistic in our ability to turn planet Earth’s fate around if we all work together and commit to making a change.
Dear Tristan,
I am doing this to protect you, the food, water, air and biodiversity of a country that I love.
Dear son,
Everyone should be grow at least 100 trees in his lifetime.
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,
My climate promise is to reduce electricity at home. I will turn off the TV and lights when I’m not in the room.
Dear Children and Grandchildren,
I see a world full of hope fueled by the desire for change.
Dear Eleanor,
You are so small. So innocent. So beautiful. For you and for everyone else, I will try harder.
Dear Nieces and Nephews,
I tried.
