Dear Future Self,

I promise to continue the recycling habits that I have picked up during this past year (2018) and that I will continue to learn about ways to help the environment so I can implement them to my life. I will also continue to save energy by turning off my lights when they are not in use and saving water by taking shorter showers. No matter where I live I will take it upon myself to keep as much waste out of the landfill by recycling. I will increase my support towards companies which are more environmentally friendly even if it means it costs more. Although this is hard for me I promise I will start to consume more chicken rather than red meat but also more vegetable since they are less harsh on our environment. Last but not least I will teach others around me about recycling and how to make our earth a better place.

To my fellow adventurers,

Don’t stop looking for adventures.

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 Kaydence,

I will keep trying Kaydence, I promise. And I hope we can look back together in 2050 and smile, knowing that our Earth is healthy once again.

Dear Beloved Children,

As time progresses, there is hope that value will be placed on all living organisms, including humans, plants, and animals. Life will move at a slower pace, and being on your own time and moving at your individual pace will be the typical way of life. I consider this way of life good living, and I hope that future generations will live on this earth as it was once intended to live in peace and harmony.

Dear Valentina & Luis,
