 減甲烷排放比減碳更有效、更快 （請救救地球 -- 吃素，環保）

To Whom It May Concern:

敬啟者:

In recent years, prominent climatologists across the globe are saying that we need to make drastic changes and act urgently if we want to save earth from its current course of destruction. NASA's scientist James Hansen and many others are urgently calling for us to reduce methane emissions before it's too late. Methane is 23 times more potent than CO2 in term of greenhouse effect. However, methane gas only stays in the atmosphere for 10 years, while CO2 remains in atmosphere for 100 years. Thus reducing methane gas emission is more effective in cutting down greenhouse effect and has immediate results.

最近幾年來，各國許多卓越的氣候學家，告誡人類如果要拯救地球免於目前面臨毀滅的困境，就需要做徹底的改變，而且刻不容緩。許多科學家包括美國太空總署的詹姆士.漢森也呼籲在一切都太晚之前，立即減少甲烷的排放量。甲烷就溫室效應來說，比二氧化碳強23倍。釋放在大氣中的甲烷只會保持10年，二氧化碳卻能保持100年。所以減低甲烷的排放量不僅比較有效，而且更能立竿見影。

While many governments in the world continue to look at ways to cut down CO2 as the solution, most of them have overlooked the No. 1 cause of pollution, MEAT CONSUMPTION, which is never addressed!!  The largest human caused sources of methane emissions are:

當許多國家的政府繼續致力於減碳之道，大部份卻忽略了第一大污染來源--肉食，而且從未認真予以看待!! 茲列下數種人類製造的甲烷來源︰

· Livestock raised for meat and dairy
· Landfills
· Leaks of natural gas to the atmosphere
· Burning of coal. 

. 肉、奶製品來源的牲畜養殖
. 垃圾掩埋新增地
. 瓦斯漏入大氣中
. 燃燒煤炭

We urge you to do all you can to support the rapid reduction of methane emissions, including:

我們強烈請求儘您所能支持減低甲烷排放量，如下︰

. Reduce or ban meat/dairy products and provide vegetarian (vegan) dishes in schools and city food services.
· Encourage all restaurants to put at least three vegetarian (vegan) dishes on their menus to help us eat lower emission diets.
· Lead by example by embracing a vegetarian (vegan) diet.

. 在學校和公家機關，少用或拒用肉奶製品和提供素食。
. 鼓勵所有餐館在餐單上提供至少三道素菜，以提醒和幫助人民蔬食抗暖化。
. 以身做則，擁護素食。

Many governments allocate a handsome amount of their annual budget to subsidize the meat industry, not realizing that meat consumption severely damages the globe environment and leads to more world hunger in third world nations. If the food fed to the livestock are instead provided to hungry humans, we can eliminate 100% of world's hunger. On the contrary, we continue to waste millions of dollars to pay the groups that massacre our environment and allow the world to go hungry, just so that we can enjoy the "flesh taste" of meat because we can afford to do so. THE WORLD, BOTH HUMANS AND ANIMALS, REALLY NEEDS OUR LOVE AND COMPASSION RIGHT NOW!  PLEASE SAVE OUR PLANET BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE. GO VEG, BE GREEN!

許多國家政府運用了可觀的預算去補貼肉食業，不了解肉食消耗不僅傷害了全球環境，也導致了第三世界更多的饑餓問題。如果本來餵食肉用牲畜的糧食轉而餵食饑民﹐就可以解決全世界的饑餓問題了﹔但相反的，我們仍不斷地浪費無數的錢在那些殘害環境和無視飢民的利益團體上，我們持續享用「眾生肉」只因我們認為我們還承受得起如此做。這個世界，包括人類和所有動物，真的立即需要我們的慈悲愛力﹗在做什麼都太遲以前，請救救我們的星球--吃素，環保﹗

Thank you for being a strong and conscientious leader, to whom we can reach out at this crucial time of need.

感佩您在此緊要求助的時刻，能做為一個下情能上達，強有力而自覺的領袖。

Sincerely yours,

 

敬上
