Greenland melting at record pace.
A recent report published in the US-based Environmental Research Letters states that 530 gigatons of ice melted into the world's oceans in 2010, more than twice the annual average of 285 gigatons per year for the past 30 years.

Led by Dr. Marco Tedesco of City College New York in the USA, an international team of scientists found that the ice disappearing in 2010 exceeded a previous record set in 2007. Scientists have already noted that if the entire Greenland ice sheet were to melt, it could trigger a seven meter sea level rise that would submerge coastal cities around the globe.

Researchers concur that the main cause is climate change, with Greenland temperatures in 2010 being 3 degrees Celsius higher than previous summer averages, and the capital city Nuuk experiencing the warmest spring and summer since record- keeping began in 1873. The region also saw a combination of warm weather and lower-than- average snowfall with stretches of bare ice, which is less reflective than snow and thus absorbs more heat from the sun's rays. Speaking of the rapid warming process, Dr. Tedesco stated, “Everything adds up to accelerate things.”

We appreciate this report, Dr. Tedesco and international colleagues, that highlights the imperiled future of Greenland and the world's coastlines. May humanity quickly awaken to the importance of adopting planet-cooling practices in time to preserve ecosystems conducive to human survival.

Supreme Master Ching Hai has frequently warned of the immeasurable dangers posed by climate change-induced ice melt, as during a March 2009 videoconference in California, USA, when she also offered the most effective solution.

Supreme Master Ching Hai : predicted that one meter sea level rise would be very catastrophic already and causing a lot of people to lose their homes.

But scientists have learned that Greenland and western Antarctica and eastern Antarctica are all melting now which had not been a factor before. Based on these findings, one scientist said

If all Antarctica were to melt, then the sea level could rise up to 70 meters!  So, there's no way we can run away from this except we turn to a virtuous way of life; then we are connected with Heaven because Heaven is virtuous and love and blessing.

I see no other way we can protect ourselves at all.

Material developed to replace fossil fuel.
Cella Energy, based in the United Kingdom, has developed a hydrogen-based liquid fuel which, according to early tests, can cleanly power regular internal combustion engines in existing vehicles with the only significant end product being water vapor.

The synthetic fuel, created at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory over a four-year period by Professor Stephen Bennington and his team of scientists from University College London and Oxford University, is based on technology that enables the safe and lasting storage of hydrogen in liquid form.

The new fuel not only has a similar efficiency to current fossil-based fuels, but it will be available at a lower price and can be used as an additive to regular petrol to reduce carbon emission levels. Cella Energy hopes for the fuel to be available as soon as in three years.

Way to go, Cella Energy, Professor Bennington and your team of scientists! Wishing your innovative clean-energy endeavors much success to benefit both travelers and the environment.

As during a July 2008 videoconference in the United States, Supreme Master Ching Hai has often spoken about the vast potential of beneficial technological developments awaiting humankind through a mindful change in lifestyle.

Supreme Master Ching Hai : The technology that we are having right now is nothing, nothing compared to what we will have if all the population of the planet turn to a loving, kind, compassionate vegetarian diet. Then you will see all kinds of inventions that we have never imagined before, will surface. And all people will live in peace and love; even if they don't pray for it, it will come.
