Plant
ecologist Dr. Ellen Dorrepaal, and colleagues of VU University
Amsterdam in the Netherlands studied sub-Arctic peatlands in northern
Sweden and found that a one degree Celsius rise in temperature speeds
respiration rates of total ecosystems by up to 60 percent, with effects
that can continue for at least eight years.
This is much higher
than previously thought, highlighting the sensitivity of the vast
peatland area to warming trends.Our appreciation Dr. Dorrepaal and team
for this vital research showing yet another alarming impact of climate
change on our planet.
Let us all act now to preserve our Earth
and her inhabitants. The dangerous implications of global warming have
often been cited by Supreme Master Ching Hai, who highlighted the most
effective way to reverse its effects in an August 2008 interview with
Ireland’s East Coast FM Radio.
Supreme Master Ching Hai:
According to the scientists, whatever they have predicted or prescribed
about our critical situation is accurate up to 99%. They want us to
change the way we live our lives, to protect our fragile ecosystem, by
cutting down CO2 emissions.
And the fastest way that individuals can do, without a lot of protocol and ado, is to be veg.
It’s truly critical now, as we have witnessed increasing disaster worldwide, due to climate change.
We
still have time, we still have a little time to change the course of
destiny, thanks to the vegetarian population, old and new members that
reduce the most karmic retribution in the shortest span of time.
