Doing Our Best
to Inform the World
about Global Warming

By brother initiate Little Tree,
Cameroon (Originally in Chinese)

On August 29, Golden Year 5 (2008), during a meeting with Master at St. Martin Center, a fellow sister from South Africa mentioned her interactions with a lumber company in Cameroon, from which she and I had borrowed a car to shoot a Supreme Master Television program in Gabon, west central Africa. The company owner, Mr. Zhang, has been my good friend for many years and was my colleague for a while. When we first became acquainted, he noticed that I was a vegetarian. Later, as he learned more about Master and the benefits of the vegetarian diet, he joined me in eating vegetarian meals and was very respectful of Master. During our work together, knowing that I was following Master and keeping the five precepts, he had a high regard for me and trustfully placed more than a million US dollars in my care. We remained very good friends after we each went our own way. Mr. Zhang has a very good impression of our group and has frequently asked me to recommend our fellow initiates to work in his company.

Ever since Master raised the alert on global warming, I have been emailing relevant information to Mr. Zhang and have also sent him the SOS flyer and DVD. Many times on the phone, I talked to him about the critical situation of the Earth. Recently, he suddenly told me that he was busy winding up his investment in the lumber industry in Gabon and preparing to switch to some other business. I was overjoyed to hear this good news! Just as Master has said, many people eat meat or engage in logging, contributing to climate change and harming the environment, not because they are really bad, but because they do not know the truth or are driven by circumstance. If we let them know the truth, they will gradually understand. For over a year, I have been emailing information to Mr. Zhang, as well as my relatives and friends. As a result, many of them are beginning to switch to a full vegetarian diet or are eating less meat.

I am very grateful to Master for Her blessing that lets more people realize the situation of our Earth and subsequently inspires them to join in the movement to “Be Veg, Go Green, and Save the Earth!”
