Following
two years of scarce rain and resulting crop failures,thousands of
Syrian families are migrating to cities in search of alternative jobs.
Climate
change, along with human-caused desertification from grazing animals as
well as the absence of irrigation, has affected 60% of the nation’s
land, with over 800,000 people who have completely lost their
livelihoods.
With over 60,000 families that have migrated thus
far, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) is providing support
to families in efforts to keep children in school, while the
International ederation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies
(IFRC) has provided funds for food aid to be distributed to the most
vulnerable.
We are grateful, United Nations Children’s Fund,
International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies
and all those working to ease the situation of the Syrians. May such
tragic circumstances soon be eliminated as more people turn to kinder,
higher standards.
Concerned for our imperiled planetary
stability, Supreme Master Ching Hai spoke in a July 2008
videoconference with Supreme Master Television staff, offering a clear
and simple approach to bring resolution to this troubling situation.
Supreme Master Ching Hai : We can help to better
prepare for the future food crisis; it’s not future, it’s already
there, but we can help to minimize it or curb it, by helping the
developed nations to understand that vegetarian diet, is the cure for
food shortage.
And that we should share the resources and
technology with all fellow brethren as Heaven intended us to do. Again
and again, eating meat is the cause of most misery on our planet.
People
must realize that putting down that piece of meat, which is poisonous,
is all they have to do to obtain peace on Earth, and to eliminate
hunger for good, and to save the planet, of course.
