Everywhere
in the world, we can observe and be touched by acts of kindness. People
from all walks of life, faiths, and cultures extend themselves beyond
the call of duty to help others unconditionally. Through their noble
deeds, humanity as a whole is elevated.
To commend virtuous
actions and encourage more people to be inspired by their examples,
Supreme Master Ching Hai has lovingly created a series of awards,
including the Shining World Leadership Award, Shining World Compassion
Award, Shining World Hero and Heroine Awards, Shining World Honesty
Award, Shining World ProtectionAward, Shining World Intelligence
Award,and Shining World Inventor Award, to recognize some of the most
exemplary, generous, caring, and courageous people who walk amongst us.
HOST:
As the global warming time clock ticks towards
midnight, courageous individuals have been alerting humanity to the
urgency of the climate change crisis, and the solution.
Among
them, Dr. Rajendra K. Pachauri is one of the most outspoken and
committed environmentalists in our world today. He is also a vegetarian
with a heart for both humans and animals. In his public appearances
around the world, Dr. Pachauri has again and again affirmed the
plant-based diet as a main solution to global warming.
Dr. Rajendra Pachauri (M): And therefore I always say if you eat less meat, you will be healthier and so will the planet.
Dr. Pachauri (m):
The entire meat cycle is a great source of emissions of greenhouse
gases. And I think we would be much better off as a society if we
reduced, and if possible, did away with the use of meat, the use of
animal proteins in human diets.
Because we would be much
healthier, the planet would be much healthier, and we know that this is
one very effective way by which we can bring under control the changes
in climate that are taking place as a result of human actions.
