More Messages to the Future
Dear Me of Tomorrow,
I plan to plant more things this spring, as we do every year in our garden.
Dear Gabriel,
When the worst consequences of climate change still feel far away today, or the barriers to acting on climate change seem steep today, I do not think about today. I think about you, and your world when you are my age.
Dear future me,
If we don’t stop cutting down trees for agriculture and to build houses then the future generations will not think about trees when they hear the word Earth.
Dear sons,
I’ve been so busy since 2012 working towards getting a price on carbon.
Dear Tomorrow,
I’ll buy only food that I plan to eat before it spoils.
Dear Tomorrow,
I will stop using plastic and will plant trees. I will also not waste water and electricity.
To My Children and My Future Grandchildren,
People are an amazing race and, if we have the will, I believe we have the ingenuity and resources to fix the harm we’ve done.
To My Children,
Is the world really polluted?
To my Dad,
I hope on this Father’s Day, my 24th birthday, and the rest of days, we remember that the most basic part of life is living happy with the ones we love. Acting every day against climate change will allow us to keep that simple piece of humanity.
My grandchildren,
I promise to do my very best to educate your parents as best I can.
Dear Jack,
Right now you are only a little over 5 weeks old, but you have truly changed my whole world. Your Mom and I always say that we thought we loved before you were born, but now that you have come into the world and we met you, our ability to love just expanded exponentially.
Dear Maret,
Right now I want to be hopeful. Right now I want to think that we took action to ensure this beautiful future for you.
