Excerpts from Supreme Master Ching Hai's Lecture:

“According to the UN report and scientific evidence, CO2 is not even the most lethal.  It's not even the most deadly of all the pollution.  I'll give you some examples.  For example, methane is like 23 times more potent than CO2.  And nitrous oxide is approximately 300 times more potent than CO2.  You see? And livestock is the number one cause of methane. And byproducts, also nitrous oxide is also from livestock.”

“If we stop the worst cause of global warming, meaning stock raising, animal breeding, then we will be able to save the planet.  We have to stop the killing of man or animals.  We have to stop producing animal products.  And we have to stop using it, okay?  Three stops: Stop killing; stop producing; stop using. And stop eating it of course, stop eating the meat.”
