Not only is it real, it's here, and its effects are giving rise to a frighteningly new global phenomenon: the man-made natural disaster. Barack Obama - Environmental - Global Warming - Climate Change - World - Fear - Failure Today we're seeing that climate change is about more than a few unseasonably mild winters or hot summers. It's about the chain of natural catastrophes and devastating weather patterns that global warming is beginning to set off around the world.. the frequency and intensity of which are breaking records thousands of years old. Barack Obama - Environmental - Global Warming - Climate Change - Failure - World The issue of climate change is one that we ignore at our own peril.

All spiritual life meets us within natural life. Reverence for life, therefore, is applied to natural life and spiritual life alike.

He who has endured such vicissitudes with equanimity has deprived misfortune of its power.
