Dear Future Generations: Sorry
Dear Future generations. I think I speak for the rest of us when I say Sorry. Sorry, we left you with our mess of a planet. Sorry that we were too caught up in our own doings to do something Sorry, we listened to people who made excuses to do nothing I Hope you forgive us. We just didn’t realize how special the Earth was like a marriage gone wrong We didn’t know what we had until it was gone.. For example, I’m guessing you [probably] know it as the Amazon desert, right? Well believe it or not it was once called the Amazon rainforest and there were billions of trees there. All of them gorgeous and oh.. You don’t know much about trees. Do you? Well, let me tell you trees are amazing. I mean we literally breathe the air They are creating they clean up our pollution or carbon, they store and purify water give us Medicine that cures our diseases food that feeds us which is why I’m so sorry To tell you that we burn them down Cut them down with brutal machines horrific at a rate of [Forty] Football Fields every minute That’s 50% of all the trees in the world gone in the last hundred years why? For this. And that wouldn’t make me so sad if it weren’t so many pictures of leaves on it You know when I was a child I read how the native Americans had such Consideration for the planet that they felt responsible for how they left the land for the next seven generations Which brings me great sorrow because most of us today don’t even care about tomorrow? So I’m sorry I’m sorry that we put profit above people greet above need the rule of gold above the [Golden] [Rule] I’m sorry we use nature as a credit card with no spending limit over Drafting animals to extinction stealing your chance to ever see their uniqueness or become friends with them Sorry, we poison the ocean so much that you can’t even swim in them But most of all I’m sorry [about] our mindset cuz we had the nerve to cause this destruction progress Hey Fox news if you don’t think climate change is a threat. [I] dare you to interview the thousands of homeless people in Bangladesh [see] wow while you were in your pit house nestle their homes were literally washed away but need their feet due to rising sea levels and Sarah Palin, you said that you love the smell of fossil fuels Well, I urge you to talk to the kids of beijing who are forced to wear pollution. Masks just to go to school So you can ignore this but the thing about truth is it can be denied Not avoided I’m sorry future generations. I’m sorry that our footprint became a sinkhole and not a garden I’m sorry that we paid so much attention to isis and very little to how fast the [ice] is melting in the arctic I’m sorry, we doomed you and I’m sorry we couldn’t find another planet [and] time to move [to] [I] am You know what cut the beat? I’m not sorry This future I do not accept it because an error does not become a mistake until you refuse to correct it We can redirect this how let me suggest that if a farmer sees a tree that is unhealthy And they don’t look at the branches to diagnose it they look at the root so like that farmer We must look at the root and not to the branches of government and not to the politicians run by corporations we are the root that we are the Foundation this generation it is up to us to take care [of] this planet. [it] is our only home we must globally warm our hearts and change the climate of our souls and Realize that we are not apart from Nature We are a part of nature and to betray nature is to betray us the save nature is to save us Because whatever you’re fighting for racism or poverty feminism gay rights or any type of equality it won’t matter in the least Because if we don’t all work together to save the environment We will be equally extinct so Hey guys for the past several weeks I’ve been here in Africa the heart of Africa witnessing the horrific destruction of the rainforests which inspired me to write this piece Wire for is being destroyed that such an enormous rate for this Today, we live in a world where destroying trees? Makes you money, so what can we normal people do about it? One way to directly fight the destruction is to stand for trees by standing for trees Not only can you save the lives of trees help forest communities and protect the rights of animals to live in their homes? But you will also balance the amount of pollution that you yourself give off your everyday activities Making you a part of the solution and not the problem This is the option that I chose but whatever way that you choose to stand for trees do it because a wise man once said When the rivers are all dried up and the trees have been cut down Man will then realize that he will not be able to eat Money.
What steps are you taking to help fight climate change?
Reply me after 5 years 😀
Who else is scared that in the future they’ll have to leave their homes because of the rising sea levels, because I am I am in fact terrified
DAMM Can we get this guy for President hed be the besttttt
We think about what kind of world we leave for our children but we should really be thinking what kind of kids we're leaving for the earth.
💯
You decide to post a message instead of doing it. The amazon rainforest still exist and so to trees and we don't do that cut them down or burn them. We also make other stuff.
This guy never went to how to button your shirt class. Dude you only button the top one. Stop talking about Asia and start doing stuff. You say get out off your couch when you do it everyday
OK so basically we need him AS PRESIDENT I honestly think he'd help this Terrible world
0:40 i will soon
It’s disgusting that humanity we would do this. We may not have realized it at first but we’ve had decades of realization to stop carbon emissions. We could have saved the earth when we first realized our mistake if we all got of our couches and actually said “Yeah I agree”. Apparently humanity can’t come to accept facts. Apparently are stupid species can’t accept that SOMETHING WE ARE DOING IS WRONG. We say “oh we’re good people cause we spread awareness for endangered animals”. Well oh YOU FRICKIN CAUSED IT WHEN YOU DECIDED TO CONTINUE WATCH YOUR LITTLE SESAME STREET. Humanity destroys everything that’s good on this earth. We kill the planet that produces every thing we know. What’s going to happen when we take away the earth? What’s going to happen when we slowly take away everything we know. Think about it like this, the earth gives us all these resources we need to survive and evolve and learn. Now, when we kill the earth these resources stop producing. Trees = Lumber = Shelter, Trees = Paper = Books = Knowledge. When will we finally notice that we are taking our ability to grow and the ability to SHARE AWAY! When you think about it all those deaths and all that deadly bacteria that is going around wiping us down is not a disease. It’s not a plague and it’s not cruel. Maybe to the human mindset it’s cruel but when you open up and let the world in you realize, is it what we deserve? We have killed millions of animals, we have increased animal extinction by thousands. And now we cry because our time is coming to a end? We’ve destroyed habitats and we’ve broken down ecosystems. We’ve changed the planet to our liking not realizing we were destroying it. I’m not telling anyone to stop taking medications I’m not telling anyone to stop fighting. I’m saying we need to make a difference. Because I don’t know how long I, You and Future generations can survive in our wasteland of a planet. No, it’s not fair. We destroyed and killed animals and we’ve burned forests and killed the planet. It’s not fair that all those little kids in the future won’t be able to go to the zoo like we could when we were carefree. No, those kids will learn about the great deforestation they will learn about all these magnificent animals that now seem like dinosaurs, to them. It’s time to make a difference and get up.
I’m sorry if I went a little to hard. I respect everyone’s opinion but uh yeah that’s just mine.
Hello 2019 where we still haven't changed anything we need to do something to change what we do.
Listen man you a real hero
Should we be sorry to nature or sorry to ourselves because, we are only hurting ourselves, nature was only trying to do they're jobs and help us, but some people in this world just doesn't want good for themselves. I just wish Prince Ea was our president
Man we really are destroying our home and it hurts man😢

Finally a 30 – 40 year old man who will admit it’s his generation
Wow beautiful
Save the planet we can do it
He said : progress
Me: i feel that bro
You didn't do something wrong people. Politics did. Tho some people still litter.
Humans we need to save our earth together. 🌻
I came from A Province and I want this place to stay the same for the next generation.
I’m crying
It's crazy how important that video is today.
How could you dislike this?
I’ve never heard anything more wise
#TeamTrees
This is so DEEP 💘
How does this have 31k dislikes???
meanwhile on the same earth
MrBeast : HEY LETS PLANT 20MIL TREES .
#teamtrees
SOY EL COMENTARIO EN ESPAÑOL QUE BUSCAS 😏
he is why team trees exists
Respect from India!
this made me cry 😢
this makes my crying
I'm sorry
dear haters: go to hell
I donated $50 for trees
We dont lose trees because we have mrbeast
I honestly think you should run for president
Ecosia.org is a search engine that plants trees. They just reached the planting of 74m trees a few days ago. There are still hope, there are still people who care. And they are donating 3 million trees additional to the 2.2m they had already planted in Brazil. They have tree planting projects over 15 countries on this Earth. It’s an app on your cell phone and a search extension you can download on your computer. We are wrecking the ecosystem and changes must be done, however it’s not impossible. I believe human race will not be that stupid. There are advances made every single day, there are research is going on every single day, and we can make changes. Your efforts matter. Because a great fire starts with a few sparks. With passion as fuel and logic leading the way, we can all set things ablaze.
Join their mission on planting 1billion trees!!🌲
Isn’t it sad that he’s talking about the next generations (after zoomers) yet this is already facts
The people who disliked this video is selfish

How many people, are poisoned by human error that have exceeded our earth’s limits have made us take so many shortcuts and make things worse than better, we need to stop being lazy and now actually think ahead. Yes it’s a dumb line but now, the most everyday line, has become the most important, but now, it might be too late. But there still is hope, people are starting to take notice and do this useless bogus that barely help the world. But hey, that’s all we’ve got. So either we give up on our early world and do what? Move to mars? Ha, I didn’t think so. Stop thinking you can help the world, believe that we all could help. As an everyday quote “teamwork makes the dream work” that plan, might work. If we help tree companies and help the Earth’s needs, we won’t need to cut down these many trees. But the government, just doesn’t listen, they SAY that they will take action, but ARE they DOING it? No. Because they are too dang cheap and so corrupted by their need of greed and want money and power, not the Earth’s flowers. They don’t have the time to see the world, because they done choose to see it. We must take action, today. So that our tomorrow, is better than it was yesterday. But hey, remember, 1 person won’t fix this, we need hundreds upon thousands of others joining. So please, help our Earth live.
I used to live in Beijing it and it would s true

-Said 8 billion people
All you people scrolling,looking for memes or tik toks.
Looking for that instagram follow.
Think about the next generation,your family,they'll all disapear if you keep this up.
Look at your dog,and think that one day it's kind will be rare.
Start to recycle,this thing you are staring at called "phone" or "tablet" or "lap top" or even "computer" is just melting your eyes,in 2050 plastic in the sea will be more than the fish in the sea.
Only 5% of the world recycle.
The ice is melting and all you're doing is watching videos on youtube.
Wake up
-random person.
You gotta do what you say
#climatechangeisathing
This be hitting different.
“Amazon Desert” Hit REALLY hard
That’s great there are two amazing things saving trees and team trees planting more
Just me who was like omg the amazon rainforest is gone in 2019 and he told us 4 years ago that it’s goijng to be a desert
Now we have stupid debates on whether climate change is real or not. We're just a dumb species and our extinction is inevitable.
♥️
This man speaks truth
We were just KIDS!
We tried so hard!
Most of us don't care!
We fought those people who don't believe.
They just won't change.
Me: 2036
if there are any future generations…
We were number 1 in trees planted in the middle east
But after all wars we had against alot of countries
We lost more than 75%
And its been years and we never grow them back
My country is iraq btw
Countries like India and China are producing tons of greenhouse gases so they can satisfy their people. Those two countries alone have over 1/3 of the world's population. It's up to us to come up with a new, effective and safe way of producing energy.
Ok we all need to use credit cards not paper money
why is there 30k dislikes what kind of person would dislike this video can people tell me why
Wait til his grand kids see this one
It’s our grandparents and parents generations fault people born in the 1970s all the way to 1800
