With
recent research doubling forecasts due to new information about
accelerated ice melt in Antarctica and other regions, a 1.4-meter sea
level rise is now being anticipated in coastal areas and islands before
the next century.
Countries such as Âu Lạc (Vietnam) are thus
calling attention to the issue of food security ahead of the upcoming
international negotiations in Copenhagen. Deputy Director of the
Aulacese (Vietnamese) Meteorology, Hydrology and Climate Change
Department, Mr. Nguyễn Khắc Hiếu has stated that the anticipated
flooding would inundate 31,000 square kilometers of the Mekong Delta –
an area about the size of Belgium.
As the world’s second largest
rice exporter, the effect to both Âu Lạc and many other countries would
be profound. Deputy Director Nguyễn is thus asking that adaptation
issues be addressed at the Copenhagen climate summit.
Our
appreciation, Deputy Director Nguyễn and Âu Lạc for calling attention to
this vital topic at such a crucial juncture for humanity. May the
decisions of our world leaders bring unified steps to restore the
balance of our ecosphere. During an August 2009 climate change
conference in Thailand, Supreme Master Ching Hai
further highlighted
the tolls of the current global crisis, while emphasizing the critical
need for appropriate action to reverse the situation.
Supreme Master Ching Hai : In Âu Lạc
(Vietnam), you probably know of global warming related problems such as
the untimely flooding and encroachment of the sea of the Mekong Delta
region –
both of which have caused havoc and further threat to the
region’s vital rice and fruit crops.
This is due to a combination of
sea levels rising, along with the effect of melting glaciers, which are
now causing excessive floods but eventually will cause drought and
vastly diminished water supplies as well.
So we must work quickly to
avoid such unwanted outcomes.
And the most effective way is the
organic vegan diet, organic vegetable farming. This is also the fastest
way to reverse the increased warming climate to prevent further damage
and disaster. If everyone does this – be veg – the Earth will begin to
cool and we will have more time to implement the measures to eliminate
all the carbon emissions. So please, be veg,and tell everyone else of
these benefits.
