Dear Next Generation,

I promise to do the best possible job we (our generation) can do to help our world. Whether that be to keep our oceans clean, protect endangered species, research into melting glaciers, understanding why there are more extreme forms of weather, etc. I promise to make sure the world is better than the way my generation found it – the best we can. We can achieve this through petitions and demanding action from the government. The bottom line is we have a world to protect and I am not going to let your generation down. Action will be taken.

More Messages to the Future

 

To the wonder,

Dear tomorrow, thank you for letting me ride the wave of wonder that reaches toward you for all generations of all species to come.
 

to my dearest children,

Our future is being made now, and I promise to do everything in my power to make yours safe.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to eat less meat.
 

To My Future Child(ren),

The fact that you are reading this means that you would know the answer to a question that has kept me up at night more often than I would like to admit: Did I make you proud?
 

My dearest Paloma Bear,

I want the very best for you and for generations to come. There is only one planet earth. Your mommy and I will make a genuine effort to make an impact to protect it for you.
 

Dearest Finlay,

I hope you are healthy and happy and that you feel supported by the ecosystem around you because we are all deeply truly interconnected. We depend on the earth to take care of us, and nature needs us to take care of her in turn. We all need each other.
 

Dear Lucy,

The clock ticks, time passes, and the earth and all of its inhabitants move closer to dangerous boundaries we can dimly discern but cannot see clearly.

 

Dear Kids,

My mistake was thinking I needed to give you more to be a good Mom. Recently your aunt asked me what my favorite toy was growing up. I gulped, I didn’t have one- it was the outdoors, sliding down a ravine of leaves with my Dad, skiing and camping. Today is October 12th, 2021 and I am still going to be giving you a lot, it’s going to look a little different – love, experiences, education and a healthy planet.
 

I pledge to stop using plastic bags.
 

Dear My Future Child,

I want to sculpt a world for you where you can play outside without gas masks, an ocean to swim in without toxins, and a thick lively forest for you to wander.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to include the trees and animals in all my decisions.
