...beyond which it will be impossible to avoid climate change with far-ranging undesirable consequences. These include not only the loss of the Arctic as we know it, with all that implies for wildlife and indigenous peoples, but losses on a much vaster scale due to rising seas.”

Climate changing faster than IPPC worst-case scenario. And the hard part is how to stop it - IPCC, United Nation
“We have to save this planet, so that we will be able to stay. Because if the ice all melt, if the pole all melt out, and then
the sea is warm, then the gas will be released
from the ocean, and we all will be poisoned by the gas from the ocean. It’s a lot of gas, enough to kill everyone. I’ve always talked about how we deforest our planet, yeah, meat eating and all that, that contribute

NASA - In 2007, Arctic summer sea ice reached its lowest extent on record... The area of the perennial ice has been steadily decreasing since the satellite record began in 1979, at a rate of about 10% per decade. But the 2007 minimum... is about 38% lower than the climatological average. NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center Scientific Visualization Studio. Rob Gerston (GSFC).

It’s just that I am worried now
Polar ice reflects light from the sun. As ice melts, less sunlight gets reflected into space.

IPPC recommendation: Don’t eat meat. IPPC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - panel of 2,500 scientists and other experts) PARIS (AFP) — Don’t eat meat, ride a bike, and be a frugal shopper -- that’s how you can help brake global warming, the head of the United Nation’s Nobel Prize-winning scientific panel on climate change said. “Please eat less meat -- meat is a very carbon intensive commodity,” Rajendra Pachauri said, adding that consuming large quantities was also bad for one’s health.
“ This is
something that the IPCC was afraid to say earlier, but now we have said it.”
Studies have shown that producing one kilo (2.2 pounds) of meat causes the emissions equivalent of 36.4 kilos of carbon dioxide (from transporting the animals to slaughterhouses, slaughter them, refrigerate their carcasses, and distribute their flesh all across Rajendra Pachauri the country). In addition, raising and transporting that slab of beef, lamb or pork requires the same amount of energy as lighting a 100-watt bulb for nearly three weeks.
Livestock: a major cause of global warming.
Methane produced by livestock’s gas and waste creates more greenhouse gases than all the cars, trains and planes combined.
Livestock industry account for 21% of all carbon dioxide created by man. It also uses up scarce water resources and causes water pollution.
Livestock uses up 30% of the earth’s entire land surface, and continuing deforestation adds to the climate crisis.
Non meat diet cut down on methane and carbon dioxide emissions, and stop further deforestation, thus effectively reducing global warming.
Head of IPCC
“The picture is quite grim -- if the human race does not do anything, climate change will have serious impacts.” he warned.
Since the Nobel was awarded in Oct. 2007 to the IPCC and the former US vice president Al Gore, Rajendra Pachauri has criss-crossed the globe sounding the alarm on the dangers of global warming.
And preserve a future for ourselves and our children.
Be Green. Go Veg.
“If the future of the world and of human beings depended on me, what would I do?” Buckminster Fuller
Because we are all in it together, we can no longer ignore the issue. What is your stand? There are two possibilities:
1) Resign in helplessness. Blame the world at For example, if every American go on one Leading health experts agree that going meat-free day per week, it would be the same vegetarian is the single best thing that we can as taking 8 million cars off American roads! do for ourselves and our families.

large, go on living life as usual and hoping the problem will just go away. After all, what can one person do? Isn’t this the job of the governments? OR 2) Choose to do our part as individuals. Have faith in mankind - believing that many others like ourselves will also rise to the occasion and act too.Together, our accumulated efforts will stop the planet crisis.
Because we are here.
If the vegetarian diet can save the world, are we all willing to sacrifice a little? What do we have to lose, comparing to what we stand to lose?
Change your Life.
Change your Heart. John Robbins

Sir Paul McCartney
Animals are intelligent beings that love life Going veg also saves 90% of world’s crops and feel pain too. Stopping the killings is also (from feeding livestock). It is the solution to the noble and compassionate thing to do. stop world hunger. Do the right thing. Join us.
Change your Diet.
危機
The Chinese expression for ‘crisis’ consists of two characters: ‘danger’ and ‘opportunity’. Our present crisis may be the ultimate opportunity to touch our hearts and make us realize that love is the only answer: that world peace is indeed possible when we all unite and do our parts to stop the killings in this planet.
“Vegetarianism is for the long
term benefit, to lessen the karma, bad retribution, to touch the mercy of heaven.” Supreme Master Ching Hai
“ If we act fast,then
the world will not get
worse. And then the Earth
will be more protected, then maybe some damage will be recovered. I wish really that we have the planet, we continue to live, and the children grow up in a better environment. But it’s up to humanity to decide what they want and which direction they turn.” Supreme Master Ching Hai
Jan. 15 2008 - In light of the heightening concerns on the climate change crisis and our planet’s future, Supreme Master Ching Hai shared Her views on the dire situation in a teleconference discussion.
Q: Are the effects of what we have done to the planet reversible? A: Oh well, to some extent, if the government and the people in the world act fast, maybe we can reverse somehow. But I think not so quickly 100%, like the primordial of the world before. Q: Do you have a message for the leaders of the world? A: I would say to them to use their mighty power to change the diet of the planet. And adopt immediately, renewable energy. And set an example by themselves by becoming a vegetarian or vegan. They first have to be vegetarian and then they use their power truly. Like the way they forbid smoking. They could do that in forbidding meat as well. By citing all the harm that meat would do to humans and the planet. It’s not just the technologies. Because the karma is more important than just the technology. So we have to meditate on vegetarianism, you know, for all the people to have peace and to be vegetarian and the technology add into it as well. Q: If you had a message for the world, what would it be? A: That I love them very much.
Cows are intelligent, loyal animals who enjoy solving problems. A cow was known to have walked 7 miles to be reunited with her calf after being sold. Cows are stunned, have their throats cut and then skinned. Some remain fully conscious throughout the entire process.
Pigs are curious and insightful animals considered smarter than 3-year-old human children. A pig once saved a boy from drowning. Many pigs are still alive after their throats are cut. And they are thrown into the hair-removal tanks to be scalded to death in boiling water.
Do you know? 19 billion animals are
destined for the slaughterhouses in the world today.
Fish are smart, sensitive animals. They have excellent memories and recognize their mates. Fish have a nervous system and pain receptors like all other animals. Removing a fish from water causes pressure to rupture its bladder, pushes its stomach and eyes out, before it dies in pain.
Understanding Meat-eating, Killing and Karma.
Chickens are inquisitive and interesting animals with individual personalities. They are as intelligent as cats, dogs and even some primates. Chickens suffer from broken wings and legs by the time they are packed to the slaughterhouse. They are then hung by their feet and dragged painfully into electrically charged water bath. www.goveg.com
Karma means “As you sow, so shall you reap.” If you kill, you will get killed, that is the meaning of karma. If we hit someone, later we will get beaten. That is called karma. ..... We forget that by not taking other lives, our life will also not be at stake. It is the law of karma, of cause and effect. If we forgive others, others will forgive us. It is nice to have dinner without thinking that someone else had to suffer for it. This is the main reason for a vegetarian diet. You choose your own way of life, and choose less suffering for us, as well as for others. ..... Meat is the cause of all wars and suffering in this world, as well as in your personal self. To refrain from meat is to contribute peace to this planet. If we terminate the cause of killing, we will not reap the result of being killed or being wounded. ..... We respect all lives in the creative Plan of God. We can see by ourselves that all lives resist suffering and resist death. Therefore, when we kill or see animals being killed, they are suffering and they try to run away. That means God empowered them with the instinct of wanting life. If we interfere and force their lives away, we interfere with God’s will. We should treat every being in the same way as we ourselves like to be treated. Then our lives will be blessed with grace, with longevity and with wisdom. “As you sow, so shall you reap.” Then we will never blame God for any misfortune. ..... Refraining oneself from killing also means not eating animal flesh because although we do not kill it ourselves, others have to kill so we can eat it. This is indirect killing. Whenever we eat meat, it is unavoidable that some of the hatred, anger and frustration in the animal’s heart caused when it departed, will be imprinted upon our consciousness, and then we will feel uneasy inside. Therefore, when we sleep at night we have nightmares, when animals see us they are frightened of us and run away. And when we are sick, it is difficult to heal ourselves because of all this hatred, this angry atmosphere which hangs around the meat that we eat. Supreme Master Ching Hai Notes: Global meat consumption has increased fivefold in the past fifty years.

About Supreme Master Ching Hai Supreme Master Ching Hai attained full enlightenment in the Himalayas. In 1985, she began to share her message of Truth by giving public lectures and initiating sincere students into the Quan Yin Method of meditation on the Light and Sound within. This is the most ancient spiritual practice recorded in the scriptures of all the world’s religions and the most direct way to contact God. Besides being a spiritual teacher, Supreme Master Ching Hai is also an accomplished artist, poet and designer. The revenue from her artistic creations helps finance her lecture tours and supports charitable causes across all continents worldwide. In recognition of her devotion to world peace and the spiritual elevation of humankind, the United Nations has invited her on three occasions to lecture at its New York and Geneva headquarters. As a gesture of appreciation towards her humanitarian efforts, the government of the United States has awarded the ‘World Spiritual Leadership Award’ and the ‘World Peace Award’ in 1993 and 1994 respectively, as well as ‘Honorary U.S. Citizenship’. Over the years, Supreme Master Ching Hai has never ceased her tireless work to enhance the spiritual, emotional and physical welfare of sentient beings.
