Dear Future Generations,

It’s 2019 and we haven’t made much improvement on the harsh environmental changes. Sea levels are rising, the climate is gradually increasing, numerous species are becoming extinct, and countless of cities will eventually disappear. Climate change summits are taking place annually and I hope the U.S. eventually takes an adamant stand on improving the unwanted change. By the time it’s 2030~2050, I can only hope for a refined society that cuts down on CO2 emissions and converts to utilizing renewable energy sources. Not only is this for my future, but for future generations. We have to be considerate and consider the lives of other generations to come. I promise that I will switch to a more eco-friendly lifestyle. I will keep in mind my energy usages and will for now on prioritize energy renewable sources.

Dear Llewyn, beloved grandson …

I can only say that I devoted myself to doing as much as I could to make it better, to provide for a just transition, and to fight those forces that continued to exploit the Eaarth with extractive methods, methods that always also included oppressing some people–because those doing the oppression believed that they were better and deserved more.
