North American mammals show effects of climate change.
A comprehensive study conducted by scientists at three US universities found that mammals in the state of Michigan have already begun moving north in response to global warming. Species such as the white-footed mice, southern flying squirrels, eastern chipmunks and common opossums previously found in more southerly areas have increased in the northern parts of the state, while species indigenous to the north are in decline. According to the study's lead author Professor Philip Myers, the shift could have significant impact as the animals studied disperse seeds and are an integral part of the habitat.

Dr. Myers and all colleagues, our gratitude for your detailed work showing the effects of climate change on our vital ecosystems. Let us rapidly progress in our steps to stabilize the planet and protect all lives.

In a videoconference in July 2008 with our Association members in Germany, Supreme Master Ching Hai responded to a question about the animal kingdom, revealing through her inner communication their caring message about our planetary crisis, and its ultimate solution.

Videoconference with Supreme Master Ching Hai
Hamburg Center Germany - July 18, 2008

Supreme Master Ching Hai: They don’t worry about climate change; they don’t worry about their own safety or anything like that. They’re more worried about how humans are degrading themselves, mirrored in the climate tragedy and the damage of the environment and maybe the destruction of the whole planet.

The animals worry about that, the degradation, the destruction of humans’ noble quality. They try to tell us over centuries that we should live a noble life, the life according to Jesus’ teaching and Buddha’s doctrine, but very few listen. They still say the same, they say what I say: Be Veg, Go Green. Save your souls.

Norway’s first “hydrogen highway” put into place.
A 560 kilometer highway opened on Monday between Oslo and Stavanger, premiering more than a dozen cars and hydrogen filling stations along the route. Similar such thruways are already in use in Japan and California, USA. Norway’s oil and gas company StatoilHydro specifically constructed the stations for recharging hydrogen cars, which run at speeds comparable to conventional vehicles and emit only water vapor. The Norwegian highway may be joined at some point in the future with a hydrogen autobahn in northern Germany.

Our green salute, StatoilHydro and Norway for this encouraging advancement in eco-friendlier travel. We look forward to the expansion of zero-emission transportation for all.

Citizens flee possible volcanic eruption.
 After a 4.7 earthquake shook the town of al-Ais in Saudi Arabia on Sunday in a region known for volcanic activity, people from the surrounding five regional villages were evacuated for their safety. Underground magma levels were also reportedly on the rise, thus raising the chance of volcanic eruption. Vice President of the Saudi Geological Survey, Ahmed al-Attas, noted that this was the largest quake thus far in the town.

We are thankful for the safety of all affected and pray that they can soon resume their fulfilling normal lives. To minimize these cases of unforeseen natural calamities, let us all increase our care for one another and the environment.
