THERE is no more urgent time than now for world leaders and political decision-makers at the COP26 to listen to their consciences and millions of people crying out for an end to the damage, pain and hurt that climate change and global warming are causing. This could be the last chance to stop the climate reaching the point of no return when a cycle of continuing destruction kicks in. The planet will then continue destroying itself and us along with it. Despite all the talk and promises of past years, there is more carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere in 2021 than one year ago.

The poor are suffering the most from the destruction of the natural world, the cutting of trees and the industrial-scale growing of commercial crops like palm oil, soy and grass on once forest lands to feed cattle. These contribute to the CO2 that is causing global warming. There are more than 1 billion cattle in the world today. Most are raised for beef to feed the well-off, and these cattle emit millions of tons of methane annually, a greenhouse gas that is, in part, causing global warming. If most people would become vegetarian, they would be stronger, live longer healthy lives and help save the planet.
