A
 year-long study by an international team of scientists has reached the 
same conclusions as the 2007 UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate 
Change report, namely that global warming has been induced by humans. 
Led
 by the United Kingdom’s Met Office, the study evaluated more than 100 
recent scientific papers, finding that only human activities could 
account for the millions of tons of greenhouse gases emitted and the 
corresponding steep rise in global temperatures since the mid-twentieth 
century. 
Lead researcher Dr. Peter Stott stated, “The 
fingerprint of human influence has been detected in many different 
aspects of observed climate changes. Natural variability, from the sun, 
volcanic eruptions or natural cycles, cannot explain recent warming.” 
Other
 signs include new evidence of warming in the oceans, which in turn is 
causing increased atmospheric evaporation, with resulting accentuation 
of weather extremes worldwide, so that places like the United Kingdom 
become wetter while arid areas such as East Africa are even more dry. 
Our
 sincere appreciation, Dr. Stott and other Met Office scientists for 
your factual assessment of humanity’s role in the Earth’s now-perilous 
state. 
Let us heed such compelling conclusions and swiftly adopt
 lifestyles that protect our planet for future generations. Supreme 
Master Ching Hai has often emphasized the human-based causes and need 
for immediate action in curbing global warming, as during an interview 
published in the September 2009 edition of The House Magazine.
Supreme Master Ching Hai: It’s
 too serious. Too serious. Although there is no way to assess 
completely, for the moment, already more than a decade ago the United 
Nations conservatively estimated 
that there were 25 million climate 
change refugees – a decade ago, These are people forced from their homes
 and communities due to rising sea levels and a host of other natural 
disasters, so-called natural disasters, 
but in fact these are all man-made. 
Supreme Master Ching Hai:
 These situations will only worsen, not improve, until we stop the 
cause. This means to halt the livestock production and meat consumption.
 
If humans switch to the vegan diet, the Earth will begin cooling 
immediately and many of these dilemmas can even be reversed. So please, 
be veg and do good, to save the planet and all the beings on it, 
including you and me.
