Welcome to the Buddhist Door (www.buddhistdoor.com)!
Global warming is unequivocally affecting many areas in the world with reverse climates. Since the beginning of this summer, we witness floods and droughts in Asia, America, and Australia；heavy rainfalls in Sichuan and Chung Qiang, rats invasion in Dungting Lake area in China；sand storm slammed Phoenix City in the United States at a speed of 65 mph；Hawkes Bay in Northern New Zealand was heavily flooded. Floods, droughts, and sandstorms are warnings to remind us that human are likely the blame for causing imbalances in nature. Our abuses in natural resources has disrupted equilibrium in ecology and human spirit.
Environmental protection and religious groups have repeatedly remind us to care for the earth despite the fact that human beings are stubborn. We would like to remind our readers again not to waste resources such as water and electricity. Reduce your usage of air conditioning in the summer.
We hope Buddhist Door can bring you coolness in this hot summer. Thank you for joining us.
