God forgive us for heating up the globe

Both Muslims' and Christians' religious holidays were marked by global warming and environment issues this year.

The Department of Religious Affairs issued a prayer to be read during the Hajj this year: "Dear God! You created us, yet we have spoiled the balance of nature, we have polluted the environment and caused global warming. Grant us more logic."

Turkish Hajj visitors prayed for global warming at Arafat: "we did not realize the value of the blessings you granted to us; we have caused global warming and drought."

Turkish Hajj visitors asked for forgiveness for causing global warming at Arafat. The Department of Religious Affairs requested all its units inform society about global warming throughout the year and has now brought the issue to the Hajj. The chairman of the Hajj Office, Seyfeddin Ersoy, made 100 thousand Turkish Hajj visitors read the prayer which said: "Dear God! You created us, you granted us innumerable blessings; but we did not realize the value of the blessings you have granted to us; we have spoiled the balance of nature, we have polluted the environment and we have caused global warming and drought. Please forgive us for all of this."
