Dear My Future Children,

Hi! Its me, your mom. Or at least I hope I’m a mom. Right now I’m 14 years old. We are in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. I am getting prepared for high school currently. Its a pretty scary thought to think I am about to start my future next fall. I want to do good so badly so I can provide the future you all deserve. I will try my hardest to get our family set up in a way where we don’t have to worry about money, I want to be successful for you.

My hope for the future is that I am a successful nurse or doctor of some kind. I hope by this time that I am a mom, I want lots of kids so hopefully thats the case. I am married hopefully and my children have a relationship with their family and Jesus.

I promise to work my hardest in school and save money and get a job so you all can grow up and have a future. I will do my best to help with climate change and its my responsibility to set up a future for you all. I love you all so much and I am exited to see what my future brings.

Right now climate change is a pretty scary thought. By the year 2050 there is supposed to be a global food shortage, I hope this is not the case. I think its crucial for my generation to do something about climate change before it becomes a real issue.

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to reach out to more people to ditch driving and consider using public transportation. I promise to convince Marin markets that sensible policies in density and mixed use planning will further enhance everyone’s quality of life.
 

I promise to stop eating junk food.
 

Minhas lindas,

As causas das mudanças no clima são tão profundas e envolvem tanta gente e tantos lugares.
 

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.
 

Dear Thomas,

When you look at me with those big beautiful eyes and that innocent smile, you make me want to fight harder. And I do.
 

Aos meus sobrinhos queridos, Ana Laura, Luis Carlos e Helloísa,

Talvez eu não esteja viva para ver alguma mudança, mas espero que vocês vejam e tenham um mundo melhor em 2050. Plantei um ipê rosa e outro amarelo, que eles estejam florindo até 2050.
 

Dear future generations,

I pledge to you now that I will work tirelessly and with all my willpower so you don’t have to live in a world where you have to worry about the next storm.

 

Dear Tomorrow,

I will do my part to help ensure that there is an Earth left when we are done borrowing it.
 

I will recycle stuff I found.
 

To my future self,

It is today on March 6th, 2017 that you have made the decision to make a difference in this world.
 

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 I will eat vegan, organic, locally grown, and seasonal.
