| 520 | |a 2019 saw both a series of catastrophic weather events and the United Nations Climate Action Summit, where one third of United Nations member states announced policies aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050. These themes figure prominently in Daisaku Ikeda’s 2020 Peace Proposal, largely devoted to climate change and the need for effective climate action. Ikeda discussed there his meetings with Kenyan environmental activist Wangari Maathai and the importance of her Green Belt Movement. Both Maathai and British American activist Hazel Henderson and her fight against air pollution were featured in the Soka Gakkai exhibition “Seeds of Hope.” Ikeda also mentioned the UN Youth Climate Summit that took place ahead of the Climate Action Summit and called for a “youth-led climate action.” In analyzing the Peace Proposal 2020, the paper emphasizes that Ikeda’s plans for climate action have a specific Buddhist root. They refer to the Lotus Sutra’s principle that Buddha’s sahā world—our world of suffering and crises—and the paradisiac Land of Eternally Tranquil Light are not separated. By changing ourselves and accepting the Buddha’s teaching, we can change the sahā world into the Land of Eternally Tranquil Light. The Lotus Sutra expressed this hope through the image of the Treasure Tower, which with its shining light emerges in the sahā world and transforms it into the Land of Eternally Tranquil Light. | ||
