Store Wars
Dear T,I can't decide. But a piece of news can stand alone right? Or we may say it's the agenda behind these "findings" (or all acts of ours) that are more important? Air con, temperature or greenhouse gas are only manifestations.
Maybe it's not so relevant, but it may: There is a farm which our group runs in NT, an organic farm using natural fertilizer and no insecticide. The wonderful taste of the melons and vegetables from the farm is not just the result of the two factors, but the hearts behind, which strive to protect the earth (from being exploited by chemicals) and to offer better health to people. My admiration comes also from the 1st hand experience of the farmers there, about how the work changes their own lives, how the animals and insects survive harmoniously (though sharing the greens), and how the crops grow gorgeously.
When the earth becomes healthier over some years' struggle, the vegetable has become stronger and the destroy caused by insects more minor. More favourable changes start to take place afterwards. All these show me something "more" valuable and reliable - though I believe every single factor here is subject to be questioned and reviewed in a different "phenomenal situation".
You are right. I don't cycle there from the city. But I would rather if the environment allows, than the refrigerator-buses (Wait, I am not blaming the society or the others, I believe my habits and choices play the most important role totally.) And I admit I am just learning...
A pity we don't have much "study" or "research" on our heart (not psychology, you know). Buddha is one of these people who devoted their life for this aspect, apart from many other predecessors and followers. Heart (not just of human but all lives) determines many things discreetly. It becomes a secret zone to modern people, unfortunately.
