So… Al Gore and the IPCC won the Nobel Peace Prize this year.

For their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change. (Nobel Committee)

Knowledge for the better environment…
That’s peace.

Last year, the prize went to Muhammad Yunus and Grameen Bank.

For their efforts through microcredit to create economic and social development from below. (Nobel Committee)

Development for the poor…
That’s also peace.

Yeah… not only related to fighting wars..
More likely about solving the real problem.
The environmental degradation, the poverty…

And it’s also peace when we back to the pureness…
Forgiving each other.

Happy Lebaran everyone :)
Enjoy the (lil bit too) long holidays!
