Dear My Future Children and Family,

I have just started my first year of college. I am majoring in environmental engineering for you. I am hoping to learn enough to figure out how I can have the biggest impact on climate change possible. This is in hopes that your world will still be green. In hopes that there will be clear seas, and shallow ones at that. I just hope that I can do the most and make a true difference. I hope you get to see snowfall in Connecticut with my parents. I hope that there is still a world to see that is beautiful. I want you to be able to fall in love with nature and the world around you as I have. I’m sorry if we couldn’t be better.

Dear future generations,

It’s never too late to make a difference. Our actions have very real consequences. We can educate ourselves, learn from our mistakes, and take action. We can hold companies like big oil and big plastic accountable for their negative impacts on the environment. We can educate ourselves and others about what causes climate change and what actions we as individuals can take to lower our carbon footprints.

I promise to stop eating junk food.

Dear Gorasia descendants,

I will do all that I can, and hope my fellow inhabitants join my pursuit, to nurture this planet.

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.

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to use a reusable water bottle.

Minha pequena Nicole ainda não nos conhecemos, mas já te amo
