Hi The word 'frames' doesn't quite work there. The trees could be seen in photos and museums; or they could be seen in photos, pictures and museums I have to add: if there are no trees, it's not at all certain that there would be human beings long after that Dave

In 2050 besides "our children", most people who are in their 40s or younger now will still be around. I suppose you can replace "our children" by "us".
