I'm going to tell you to watch for leadership that cares about you. "You mean politics is going to change?" It already has. It's beginning. Watch for it. You're going to see a total phase-out of old energy dictatorships eventually. The potential is that you're going to see that before 2013.

They're going to fall over, you know, because the energy of the population will not sustain an old energy leader ..."

Question: Dear Kryon: I live in Spain. I am sorry if I will ask you a question you might have already answered, but the translations of your books are very slow and I might not have gathered all information you have already given. I am quite concerned about abandoned animals. It seems that many people buy animals for their children and as soon as they grow, they set them out somewhere. Recently I had the occasion to see a small kitten in the middle of the street. I did not immediately react, since I could have stopped and taken it, without getting out of the car. So, I went on and at the first occasion I could turn, I went back to see if I could take the kitten, but it was to late, somebody had already killed it. This happened some month ago, but I still feel very sorry for that kitten. I just would like to know, what kind of entity are these animals and how does this fit in our world. Are these entities which choose this kind of life, like we do choose our kind of Human life? I see so many abandoned animals and every time I see one, my heart aches... I would like to know more about them.

Answer: Dear one, indeed the answer has been given, but let us give it again so you all understand. Animals are here on earth for three (3) reasons.

(1) The balance of biological life. . . the circle of energy that is needed for you to exist in what you call "nature."

(2) To be harvested. Yes, it's true. Many exist for your sustenance, and this is appropriate. It is a harmony between Human and animal, and always has. Remember the buffalo that willingly came into the indigenous tribes to be sacrificed when called? These are stories that you should examine again. The inappropriateness of today's culture is how these precious creatures are treated. Did you know that if there was an honoring ceremony at their death, they would nourish you better? Did you know that there is ceremony that could benefit all of humanity in this way. Perhaps it's time you saw it.

(3) To be loved and to love. For many cultures, animals serve as surrogate children, loved and taken care of. It gives Humans a chance to show compassion when they need it, and to have unconditional love when they need it. This is extremely important to many, and provides balance and centering for many.

Do animals know all this? At a basic level, they do. Not in the way you "know," but in a cellular awareness they understand that they are here in service to planet earth. If you honor them in all three instances, then balance will be the result. Your feelings about their treatment is important. Temper your reactions with the spiritual logic of their appropriateness and their service to humanity. Honor them in all three cases.

Climate Change`s Impact In Indonesia Becoming Near, Real By Fardah

Antara News, Tuesday, September 7, 2010 12:20 WIB

Jakarta  (ANTARA) - Ode (45), a fisherman of Lebak District, Banten Province, has to sell his belongings to buy food for his family as bad weather has forced him to stay away from open seas over the past two months.

"I recently sold my television set to meet our daily needs," he told ANTARA at a local fish market in Lebak, Thursday (3/9).

Like Ode, other fishermen in Lebak District have also complained about their meager fish catches lately due to continuing bad weather conditions marked by strong winds, rain or huge waves in the Indian Ocean.

The fishermen said they could hardly get any fish because of strong winds, rain and huge waves at night in the Indian Ocean. Besides, the bad weather was dangerous for fishermen, he said.

Another fisherman, Keong (25), told a similar story as he had been unable to fish in the open sea due to bad weather during the past two months.

"We have been able to catch only small fish that sell at very low prices," he said.
Rohman (55), a Panggarangan fisherman, also in Lebak District, said he had switched to farming to earn a living, because fishing with very low fish catches was not profitable.

"Every time I have to fish in the sea, I have to spend Rp40,000 on fuel, while I just manage to get Rp20,000 to Rp30,000 from selling the fish," he said.

Around 2,912 fishermen and fishery workers in Lebak are now jobless due to the drastic decline in fish catches, according to Ade Supriatman, secretary of the Lebak chapter of the Indonesian Fishermen`s Association.

"I am very much concerned about the local fishermen`s economic condition as their fish catches have decreased sharply during the past few months," he said.

In Jakarta, last Tuesday (Aug 31), Gelwin Yusuf, head of the marine and fishery affairs ministry`s marine and fishery research agency explained that the prevailing climate change phenomena had affected Indonesia`s fishery industry and caused the fish catches to dwindle.

"Indonesia`s fish catches have been affected by climate change phenomena," said
"The crucial aspect caused by the climate change is increasing pressure on the food resilience, including a composition balance change in the types of fish catch results," he said.

If the La Nina weather phenomenon which has been triggering wet drought in Indonesia continues until late 2010 or early 2011, sardine fish (Sardinella longiceps) catches in the Bali Strait will drop, he said.

The sardine fish catch decline might reach 24 percent from that in 2009, or 17 percent over the last 25 years.

Besides, climate change has also reduced production of swamp fish in Indonesian waters by 5 percent over the past 13 years.

According to Gelwin, climate change also had the potential of altering the type composition of fish catches.

He cited as an example that in Atlantic Ocean waters, fish catch results had changed from demersal fish species to pelagic species.

Pelagic fish live in water columns of coastal, ocean and lake waters, but not on the bottom of the sea or lakes. They can be contrasted with demersal fish, which do live on or near the bottom, and reef fish which are associated with coral reefs.

Climate change has also altered fish catch results from vertebrate to invertebrate sea animals.

Apart from affecting food resilience, climate change is also putting pressure on coral reefs and marine biota ecosystem, coastal communities, and regional security such as increased competition for fish resources, he said.

Seas and maritime technology could contribute for mitigation and adaptation strategy of the climate change, according to the official.

As part of the adaptation strategy, the fishery and marine affairs ministry has developed some 2,612 climate-change-impact-proof houses in Tengerang (Banten), Pamekasan and Lamongan (East Java), Demak, Pekalongan, Rembang, and Brebes (Central Java), Indramayu and Banjar (West Java), Riau (Sumatra), and Bali.

The ministry also issues forecast maps of fish catch areas twice a week, covering Sumatra, Kalimantan, Java, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), Sulawesi, and Maluku, as well as Papua.

Adaptive technology in the aquaculture is also crucial to produce prime varieties immune against the climate change impacts, low-emission fish food, and environmentally friendly aquaculture technology, he added.

Indonesia`s neighboring country of Australia, has also experienced a similar situation. A new Australia`s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) study recently found that climate change is driving a widespread number of fish south as the oceans warm.

CSIRO has identified south-eastern Australia as a climate change hotspot, with well documented changes already occurring over the last 70 years.

CSIRO spokesman Dr Peter Last said a snapshot of the distribution of coastal fish has located 43 types of fish outside their normal range. Those species on the move include rock flathead, tiger sharks and Queensland groupers.

The study also found up to 19 species of Tasmanian coastal fish have undergone serious declines, and some are possibly extinct locally.

Besides the fishery sector, Climate change impacts have also threatened Indonesia`s agricultural products.

Indonesia needs to strengthen its domestic food stock to anticipate extreme climate change, Agriculture Minister Suswono said in Jakarta recently.

The unexpected La Nina during the current supposedly dry season, has caused heavy rains and floods in some provinces such as West Java, South Sulawesi, Central Kalimantan, South Kalimantan and Gorontalo (Sulawesi).

Floods have affected around 100,000 hectares of fields, however it is still below one percent of total rice fields that reach 13 million hectares.

Failures caused by pests are found in around 3,800 hectares of fields which is above the average in the last five years.

The minister said the climate change had caused the spread of brown planthoppers but various efforts had already been taken to overcome them such as through development of pest-or drought-resilient varieties.

"We must remain alert towards possible extreme climate change by increasing our food stock," he said, despite a prediction that the country might still enjoy a surplus of 5.6 million tons of rice at the end of the year.

The minister said India, China and Russia had also done the same thing to anticipate climate change that could cause a drop in production.

The minister said the country`s rice surplus of 5.6 million tons by the end of the year would be able to meet national needs if conditions are normal without pest attacks, floods or drought.

"The problem is that the climate change is uncertain. It is not impossible for floods and drought to happen or pests to attack. So we must not ignore food supply. We must strengthen the stock," he said.
