Now, as the seasons
start to change and weather patterns around the world show us the immense
diversity of Creation, we should be giving gratitude to the Higher Intelligence
for the beauty and love that he chose for us to live in.
It is filled with
fauna and flora for our delight and for our use, as we require many food
sources to keep the expanding global population fed and watered. They are our responsibility for all to be
kept healthy and in good order by allowing cleanliness and safety to all
species.
It is well known
that the climate is changing. That
surely is not in dispute, but many people, who have vested interests in
pollution and greed, ignore the fact that Mankind is contributing to the disruption
and safety of this planet.
All the signs are
there, but those who choose to close their eyes to the consequences by ignoring
this folly are like those who sit on a level crossing and ignore the express
train that is bearing down on them.
This arrogance shows
that they believe that it is somebody else’s job to stop the train or to clear
up the mess afterwards. However, for
most of us, there won’t be an afterwards as the whole globe will perish.
The burning of
fossil fuels is heating the oceans, which are already polluted with plastic
waste. They make up seventy percent of
the earth’s surface leaving just thirty percent of dry land for us to live on
and feed ourselves.
So, it becomes
obvious that in order to feed the ever-growing population, the resources of the
oceans are of vital importance to future generations, as well as to carry heavy
cargoes for trade between nations.
It is through the
action of the temperatures and winds over them that the weather patterns effect
the land masses and, with warmer waters, the intensity and frequencies of
hurricanes and typhoons cause loss of life and structural damage.
Those, who live in
these effected areas, are often powerless to save their homes and whole
communities are devastated. The power of
such weather is hard to imagine unless it is experienced and even television
doesn’t convey the fear and helplessness it brings.
It is the same old
story of polluted air and forests cut down that upsets the balance of nature,
which has been set for the protection from the damaging rays of intense
sunlight to change the boundaries of natural farming and agricultural
production.
It cannot continue
unabated and it is high time that the world leaders agreed to substantial
action and those that will not accept their responsibilities need to be seen
for the reasons why – all too often because their jobs are kept safe by lobbies
from unfriendly industries.
There is a growing
awareness by the people and ecological institutions of what must be done to
save whole communities and protect the vital resources that Mankind needs to
survive at all.
Clean up campaigns are starting to work and Government
legislation of the use of non-disposable plastics are slowly taking place, but
it is slow and needs to gather a global urgency.
By Spiritual Law we
receive what we have sown. This applies
to all people, nationalities and global responsibilities. We are all reaping what we have allowed to be
done in our name, but it is not too late to reverse the trend.
All of us have the
opportunities to recycle our waste according to where we are. It is never a good idea to just leave it
behind, as climbers have done in our mountain ranges and space travellers still
do. Our skies are full of junk as well
as satellites that give us valuable data to upgrade our knowledge.
Each and every day,
we all make decisions as we purchase items and then dispose of the wasted
packing materials, which carry what we chose to purchase. We should discriminate about what is safe to dispose
of after use and where we can safely dispose of it.
This is not a
message for the weak-minded and the selfishly inclined. They will continue to ignore the massive
problem that is threatening our livelihoods and the future for our children and
grandchildren.
This is a message
from the Higher Intelligence to all those who care. All those who are positive and have a
spiritual mind-set, which tells them that it matters how we behave and that we
live together for the Greater Good and not selfishly just for ourselves.
Those of us who have
spent our life walking on this globe, know that there must be standards and
morals, which sounds very high-minded, but they are just labels for good
behaviour and doing things right.
Our Creator gave us
all a conscience to know right from wrong and the givers live by how it directs
them. The takers turn away from it to live
a life of trying to always have what they want at whatever the cost to
everybody else.
It pays to think
about tomorrow and to do what we can for the future of our race and for the
rest of the living fauna and flora that we were given to enjoy and prosper
with. Do not turn away, but understand
that every little act of good sense adds up towards the whole.
It wasn’t the whole load that broke the
camel’s back, but that last little bit that was added. Could that have been yours if you had acted
differently? We need to know that we can
make a difference for the better and ‘I’ say Amen to that.”
