Record high temperatures already in 2011. Less
 than three-quarters into the year, six nations have seen record high 
temperatures including Kuwait, Iraq, Armenia, Iran and Republic of 
Congo. In noting this extreme weather, US-based meteorologist Dr. Jeff 
Masters of Weather Underground stated that no record lows have been 
recorded in any country thus far,only unprecedented heat. 
On 
August 3, the city of Mitraba in Kuwait saw the thermometer register 
53.3 degrees Celsius, an all-time high for the nation and a temperature 
never seen before in the world for the month of August. 
The 2011
 warming trend also repeats a theme of last year, when 20 countries 
reported all-time highs but none saw record lows. Extreme heat is known 
to be dangerous to both human and animal health, with many people who 
have perished to recent high temperatures in cities as well as tens of 
thousands of fish that have suffocated due to reduced oxygen in warming 
waters.
We appreciate your research and sharing of this factual 
information, Dr. Masters and associates, despite its alarming nature. 
Our prayers that humanity joins in lifestyles that restore balance to 
our planet and all cherished fellow inhabitants.
Supreme
 Master Ching Hai: The heat is so intense nowadays that government 
officials are genuinely concerned about your health,so they have asked 
you to stay indoors even, in midday hours,or to put a hat on when going 
outdoors,and to drink plenty of water,and constantly. You see, climate 
change is very dangerous to our health,the health of our parents and our
 young children.
The extreme heat not only makes us feel hot, but
 as the glaciers melt, livelihoods, food, drinking water, etc., etc., 
also face a real meltdown. 
How do we keep the global temperature at safe levels? There is a solution. 
The
 United Nations proposed that the best way to bring about cooling,rather
 than focusing on carbon dioxide, would be to reduce the shorter-lived 
global warming agents. These include methane, black carbon, and 
ground-level ozone. The fastest, cheapest way to do this is to stop 
raising animals for human consumption.
