Dear Finn and Cy,
I think a lot about what you might be like when you grow up and about what kind of world you will live in.
To you, my dear!
In 2050, I will still be fighting against climate change. I feel that it’s not only my duty, but rather my destiny.
Dear Future Me,
I hope that when we look back on these years, you’ll see that humanity can be good. That we joined together and fixed it because of we don’t, who will?

Dear Ari and Levi,
Luckily, we have figured out ways to build things without making the air dirty, and we are trying very hard to get more people to switch over to this new way as fast as we can.
Dear Future Grandchild,
We can learn a lot about how to treat others from stories that have been passed from generation to generation.
Dear X—, Dear A—,
As with our struggles to eliminate police brutality, as with hate crimes, so it is with climate change – there are actually a lot of people out there who care.
For those who come after us,
This is for the countless children I already see suffering the impact of climate change around the world, and the generations to follow.
