Fr Shay Cullen, from Preda Foundation, affirms in his article, Global warming can be stopped that we have to take serious action now to stop climate change. “The deadline is a tipping point of global temperature that when reached could make the warming irreversible”, he says. If we continue destroying forests, burning fossil fuels in coal plants to make electricity and populating the world with billions of cattle that release methane — a dangerous greenhouse gas to the planet — we are making big trouble for humankind. The forests are threatened not only by greedy humans in Hungary, the Amazon and South East Asia, by logging and growing soya and raising cattle for beef, but by disease due to the warmer temperature where tree-destroying diseases and insects thrive. We too can change our community to be more climate friendly by protecting our local environment, speaking out against logging, planting trees, recycling, and establishing organic food gardens to feed ourselves and eat less meat. This is the challenge for our future and the future of our families and the next generation. Each of us can find a way to be involved in saving the environment in our community.”
