To Future Me,

Dear future. Today is 2017 1st February, 10.26 PM. I’ve seen a movie about climate change, its called Before The Flood. The only thing that I can think of is this movie showed me how far we are from destroying our future and world. The movie is a true inspiration. Right here and now I’m only a poor 14 years old girl who is living in a small house with 7 people in it and 4 bedrooms, and dreaming something big, saving our world and become a successful person. I’m sorry if I’m spelling wrong because the laptop is Norwegian language and it’s kind of hard to write English. I just want to say. You can do it, save the world, save people who need help, save the future. We all need faith in ourselves and the world. It’s always the way out of the nightmares. I only hope maybe one day I can be one of the people who saved thousands of life. As Leonardo said “I do not take this world for granted” and you shall not do it either. In 2030 I hope I’m a good person who’s living the life happily. I may write some few more letters since its late and I’m tired so I’m not really so sure what I’m writing.

To my precious children,

As you’ve grown older, I’ve become increasingly aware that protecting you means more than ensuring your short-term safety. It also means ensuring that you’ll have a safe planet to live on.

So, dear heart, I am doing everything I can as the situation worsens.

To My Friends, Family and Future Grandchildren,

I realize my reflection of the past, current and future state of the environment paints a grim and pessimistic picture, but I feel optimistic in our ability to turn planet Earth’s fate around if we all work together and commit to making a change.

Dear Tripp,

I promise to do my part, supporting federal legislation to protect our earth while starting small with projects at home.

I am working with 350.org on shutting down the coal and unconventional gas industries in our country because I cannot think of a more direct way to protect you, the food, water and biodiversity we all love and rely on.

Dear Me,

Today, I promise to keep my spaces clean and my environment cleaner.

To my future children,

It’s not enough to just recycle. I will sign petitions and call my local representatives. I will also engage in conversations about climate change – even with people with whom I don’t see eye-to-eye.

Vitória,

Antes de realizar qualquer ação pense no meio ambiente para que suas atitudes sejam pautadas na sustentabilidade. Assim o seu pensar e agir localmente poderão resvalar na escala global.
