Applied Buddhism And Protection Of Global Environment

The delusion of excessive greed to possess everything has pushed mankind to satisfy excessive and unnecessary demands. The greedy individuals try to maximize their gains by all means without being concerned of the negative impact of depletion of natural resources, discharge of toxins in air, earth and water which result in environmental pollution and eventually destroy the ecological balance. Our overwhelming greed is now gradually speeding up our own destruction. It is now high time to realize that our external Environment is significantly polluted because the thoughts in our mind are seriously distorted. So, we should take appropriate action for purifying the mind. The Buddha has given special emphasis on the underlying unity and inter-connectedness of life and nature. We should practice simple lifestyle, sharing with others, taking responsibility for one's actions and compassion for all living beings.
