Eighty percent of global warming would stop if world goes veg.

With greenhouse gases from the meat industry amounting to more and being more potent than those caused by all transportation modes combined, it has been clearly established that removing the cycle of meat production and consumption would significantly control and curb global warming. Compounding the physical consequences of animal farming is its invisible moral toll. During the special seminar on climate change solutions held in Taipei, Formosa (Taiwan), Supreme Master Ching Hai spoke with illuminating clarity on what the world needs to do to avoid both grave detriments.

Supreme Master Ching Hai: A vegetarian lifestyle is almost all that we need right now to stop the global warming, to balance the scale of the negative consequences. Even physically speaking most of the pollution will be stopped by all the people on the planet being vegetarian. I really mean it. 80% of the pollution will be stopped. 80% of the global warming will be stopped if all people begin to be vegetarian. I mean whole vegetarian, or at least more than 2/3 of the time should be vegetarian. But why not just be vegetarian altogether? It won’t hurt. It will only do us good, it helps the world, it saves the planet and it saves our children. If we really love our children this is what we must do.

VOICE: We are grateful for Supreme Master Ching Hai’s steadfast guidance and for making apparent the most powerful solution to climate change, that is, our compassionate dietary choices. How incredibly rewarding and beneficial is the vegetarian, animal-free diet!

Please tune in at a later date for a full re-broadcast of the “2008 Critical Moments to Save the Planet: What Can I Do?” Seminar and Concert, here on Supreme Master Television, with multi-language subtitles.


Penguins disappearing due to human activity.


Compared to 15 years ago, when approximately six penguin species were considered vulnerable, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature now lists three penguin species as endangered, seven as vulnerable and two or more as near threatened. University of Washington biologists in the US have correlated the penguins’ decline with the deteriorating health of southern oceans. Human-induced global warming and activities such as tourism, fishing, development, and oil pollution are affecting even penguins remotely located from people. Dr. Susie Ellis, a longtime penguin expert, warns, “What happens to penguins, a few years down the road can happen to a lot of other species and possibly humans.”

We are grateful, Dr. Ellis and associates, for your findings that alert us to our responsible role in the survival of other species. With Heaven’s grace, may we quickly act to save these and other treasured Earthly co-inhabitants.
