In
an article published in the US-based The Atlantic newspaper, Dr. (MD)
Paul Epstein, Harvard Medical School's associate director of the Center
for Health and the Global Environment, highlighted several key ways that
humanity is already being harmed by climate change effects.
Supreme Master Ching Hai :
We should fuel the economy with the cleanest fuel to keep our air, our
water and land clean and our health in good condition, because
everything that is not good for the environment is not good for our
health as well. All the chemicals of the agriculture, all the waste from
the animal agriculture, run off into the river, into our stream, into
the ocean, and we drink this water. We use the ocean. Everything will
affect our health.
That’s why people are more sick nowadays
despite all the new inventions, new discoveries of medicines and
different fashions, more hospitals than ever before, when we say we were
not so developed right now.
Also, we should not just fuel our
system with the clean fuel, but we also should fuel ourselves with the
best, most clean and efficient energy source as well.
Our best
fuel is vegan food, the life-saving organic vegan food. It benefits the
climate physically and also creates a benevolent atmosphere around us.
