 Sunday April 20, 2008 12:40 by PaddyK2
NUIG is to host a seminar on global warming and the human spirit.
Ringu Tulku Rinpoche, a scholar of Tibetan Buddhism, will speak at NUI, Galway on Wednesday 23 April.
The evening will begin with a presentation summarising the latest climate science and renewable energy solutions by Dr John Stanley, Director of the Ecological Buddhism project. The project was established as an educational resource for the international Buddhist community to address issues surrounding global warming. Dr Stanley is a former research group leader at the UK Health Protection Agency and member of the New York Academy of Sciences. Tibetan Buddhism teacher Ringu Tulku Rinpoche will also speak at the event, discussing the spiritual aspects of global warming for humanity. The questions he will pose include: What are the inner causes and conditions that have led to this critical juncture for humanity? What is the appropriate spiritual and psychological response to these threatening external phenomena?
Ringu Tulku Rinpoche is an eminent scholar of Tibetan Buddhism. Since 1990, he has been travelling and teaching Buddhism and meditation at more than 50 universities, institutes and Buddhist centres in Europe, the US, Canada, Australia and Asia.
Professor Angela Savage of NUI, Galway's Chemistry Department, said: "Unsustainable fossil fuels use and one-sided economic growth have undermined the Earth's ecosystems. A long-term view is essential requiring, in addition to scientific analysis, a spiritual approach to tackle the fundamental human causes of global warming."
'Global Warming: Science, Solutions and the Human Spirit' will take place at NUI, Galway next Wednesday, 23 April at 8pm in the Cairnes Theatre on the concourse. The evening will conclude with a discussion led by Ringu Tulku Rinpoche.
