Dear Tomorrow,
Don’t use plastic straws!
My grandchildren,
I promise to do my very best to educate your parents as best I can.
Dear Eleanor,
It seems silly to saddle yourself with guilt for something that hasn’t happened yet. I don’t want to do that. As of today, I don’t really feel guilty. I guess I just want to make sure I keep doing more, so that when you read this, and ask what I’ve done since then, I can still feel good about my efforts.
I pledge to use less plastic.
Dear Potential Future Kiddo,
To think that my choices of sustainable commuting, eating a plant based diet, and working on our City’s zero waste program likely pale in comparison to the impact of not having a baby is nothing short of devastating. Does it make me a bad environmentalist to honor my maternal instincts?
Dear Grandchildren — August and any others who were born after him
I joined millions of other people who wrote letters and made calls urging our leaders to do more to care for the planet.
Dear Abigail and Olivia,
What stories will you tell them about our generation? Will we be heroes or villains?
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 Grandchild,
I now feel less overwhelmed and powerless, and I am determined to fight for our planet and your future.
Dear next generation,
I hope that by the time you’re reading this, things have changed and people have started to protect the earth
Dear Tomorrow,
I promise to clean the earth.
I promise to take shorter showers.
