At
the International Energy Agency ministerial meeting in Paris, France,
Nobel laureate Dr. Rajendra Pachauri, Chairman of the Intergovernmental
Panel and Climate Change (IPCC), said that
carbon emissions must peak no later than 2015 to stabilize temperatures so they do not exceed 2˚ Celsius or 3.6˚ Fahrenheit.
Moreover,
regarding the upcoming December United Nations climate meeting in
Denmark, he stated, “It is not enough to set any aspirational goal for
2050, it is critically important that we bring about a commitment to
reduce emissions effectively by 2020.”
Dr. Pachauri, we are
thankful for this clear reminder of our vital need to act quickly to
avoid disastrous consequences. Our prayers that leaders at the December
United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change make wise and
heroic decisions to ensure the survival of our Earth.
The real
solution and the swiftest way to halt our planetary crisis has been
highlighted time and again by Supreme Master Ching Hai, as during an
October 2008 videoconference in Thailand.
Supreme Master Ching Hai:
We must let people know it’s urgent now and it’s time to stop global
crisis. Time is short and we must all act as one to save our world from
disappearing, to save our lives, and all the lives on the planet.
Everything else takes too long.
So the fastest and easiest way is
to stop animal products and to stop consumption of it. The result will
be almost immediate, within a few weeks.
It’s just the meat industry
that causes the most pollution for the planet, that the planet is
overloaded, nature is overloaded,the ocean is overloaded. So everything
warms up because of meat and animal products.
If we change into
vegetarian diet, this planet will become a paradise, will be plentiful,
will be peaceful, will be very happy for everybody to live on.
