Deforestation of the Amazon rainforest has increased. On Friday, the Brazilian government announced that the rate of tree felling in the Amazon went up for the first time in four years. From August 2007 to July 2008, 12,000 square kilometers (4,633 square miles), representing 4 percent more land was destroyed than in same period the previous year. The areas most affected were cleared primarily for the planting of soya, which is grown to supply animal feed for meat production.
Brazil, we thank you for this alarming update. Our prayers that preservation efforts are made both nationally and internationally to restore these precious lungs of our world.
Excerpt from Supreme Master Ching Hai’s lecture: “The Law of Karma” August 4, 1999 - New York, USA In August 1999, Supreme Master Ching Hai had emphasized the importance of the Amazon rain forest while speaking with our Association members in New York, USA.
Supreme Master Ching Hai : They still cut the trees, and do all kinds of harm to the environment. And it's murderous now, the weather. If the Amazon forest has been cut down, and they plant another forest, then we have to wait a few hundred years for the trees to grow into such a capacity in order to produce oxygen, and neutralize the toxins in the air the way the Amazon trees are. It's not like you can cut any trees and plant it, and it will be the same. The size may be the same, but the capacity is not the same. Trees need time to be able to produce the balance that we need to survive.
