2. The need for environmental protection - 2
We must once again establish the environment that Heavenly Parent desired to see at the outset. Today, people are causing many environmental problems all over the world. The Earth is diseased. That is why I will work to protect a health planet Earth and create a natural environment that will provide healthy nutrients for the peoples of the future.
In order to survive, we must consume the necessary nutrients. We must eat to live. The food we eat should be derived from crops that have been cultivated in the cleanest and healthiest manner.
As it stands today, people around the world in the food-production industry generally make it their priority to find ways to increase their profits, rather than being motivated to maintain the health of their fellow human beings.
For example, they inject cows with hormones so that they will grow larger and produce more beef, but the hormones have an effect on the people who consume the beef. Producers seem not to be concerned about this. They think solely of their own interests. That is why, especially on the restored lands of Africa, we can protect the health of all people through scientific and optimal methods of planting crops or raising cattle on their vast lands. in order to establish one great human family under True Parents—a healthy human family—we must develop nations prepared to accomplish this both internally and externally.
South America also has plenty of land. We have been raising cattle on our land in South America. We should not only raise cattle on South America's vast open spaces, but plant medicinal herbs, wholesome vegetables, or fruit trees for the sake of our health. We can then advance toward protecting the health of all people on earth. (2016.07.20, Cheon Jeong Gung) |
