Over
160,000 people in China’s Liaoning province have been left without
sufficient drinking water in this northeastern region which has
experienced increasing drought from global warming.
The area’s
38 small reservoirs are depleted, leaving agriculture also suffering,
with 10,000 hectares of crops declared to be ruined and over 400,000
negatively affected by the drought.
We pray for the cool
relief of sweet rain for the people and farmers of Liaoning province.
Let us also choose to adopt the harmonious plant-based diet to protect
ourselves and our animal co-inhabitants. Ever-concerned for humanity,
Supreme Master Ching Hai has often cited the need to conserve precious
resources, as she did in this June 2009 video message for a global
warming seminar in Veracruz, Mexico.
Supreme Master Ching Hai:
We can stop water shortage. While droughts are plaguing more
populations, we cannot afford to waste water. Meat production uses
massive amounts of water, as you know. It takes up to 1,200 gallons of
fresh and good clean water to produce just one serving of beef. In
contrast, a full vegan meal costs only 98 gallons of water.
That
is like 90 plus percent less. So, if we want to stop water shortage and
to preserve precious water we have to stop animal products.
