During
discussions on greenhouse gas reduction goals, the Climate Committee of
the European Parliament officially recognized livestock’s contribution
to global warming and recommended a review of subsidies to the livestock
industry to bring about a reduction in methane. Bravo and thank you
European Parliament, and all others for your efforts to save our planet
by allowing the true cost of
meat to be reflected in the market, while encouraging the consumption of health-giving plant-based foods.
In
an interview with James Bean of the radio program, “Spiritual
Awakening”, Supreme Master Ching Hai had detailed the benefits of an
animal-free diet in halting the effects of climate change.
Supreme Master Ching Hai:
In order to save ourselves, we must be vegetarian. A vegetarian diet is
the nonviolence in the highest sense. And vegetarian diet is a love in
action. Don’t you think?
James Bean – Radio host, HealthyLife.Net Spiritual Awakening (M):
Yes, if you love animals, why eat them? SM: Yes. And a vegetarian diet
will stop 80% of global warming, stop all the cruelty, beginning on our
plate. Generating loving, kind energy around the world, stop water
shortage and water pollution, stop food shortages, stop world hunger and
war, prevent deadly diseases, save enormous tax and medical bills to
build a better world, and support new useful inventions and good
people’s organizations.
