Your
initiative on the World Wide Web of Electricity is
commendable and your efforts are in tandem with the
World Business Council
Mohammed
Hasan, Chairman, Indonesian Business Council for Sustainable
Development
Excellent
idea. Please continue implementing it. Becoming inter-dependent
on each other will force us to resolve conflicts in
a non-violent way.
Sergio
Lub, President, Sergio Lub Jewelry
The program
for a World Energy Grid deserves the attention and
full support of individuals and groups throughout
the globe concerned with creating a culture of peace
based on genuine sustainable development. It's a practical
vision and significant contribution to the movement
for a just world order.
Dr. Saul

I
like your concept and could imagine its importance
for Republic Island (cheap electricity)
Peter Hesse,
Honorarkonsul, Republic Island
The
more reasons that exist for people and nations to
benefit from shared resources, shared development
and shared planning, the greater the scope for reduction
in the confrontation mode of behaviour which exists
too widely, and its replacement with consensus seeking
which exists too rarely.
Hans Eisen,
Mng. Director, SNEG Nominess Pty Ltd
We are
absolutely in agreement with this initiative and we
want to let you know that we will be supporting all
works that you develop in this relation.
Vicente
Fox, Governor of the State of Guanajuato, Mexico
Keep
up your good work. We must not allow nuclear energy
to become the energy of choice for developing (or
developed) countries.
David Krieger,
President, Nuclear Age Peace Fdn.
We endorse
the GENI Initiative. Let's ensure this is one of the
great public works projects for the next millennium!
Kirk Bergstrom,
President, WORLDLINK
Please
accept my support for your initiative of a Global
Energy Network.
Mairead
Maguire, Peace People
Sometimes
what seems like an impossible problem or set of problems
can be solved by a simple, obvious solution; and everyone
says: "Why didn't I think of that?" I believe GENI's
initiative to interconnect renewable energy resources
around the world might be the most important step
towards creating a cooperative global society.
Steve Donovan,
Trustee, State of the World Forum
These
areas deserve top priority around the world and I
support the GENI Initiative warmly.
Dr. Karan
Singh, People's Commission for Environment and Development
(India)
Energy
is now wasted. New technology and available energy
can, for the first time in the history of the world,
provide opportunity and challenge to everyone, my
definition of utopia; so if we can put the lives of
people before politics, than the GENI approach of
shared energy is viable and necessary.
Martin
Alpert, President of Universal Empowering Technologies
GENI is
a very interesting and attractive idea....Certainly
this kind of binding links between peoples and states
will have a great stabilizing effect on international
stage.
Victor
Kuvaldin, The International Foundation for Socio-Economic
and Political Studies (The Gorbachev Foundation)
I
have studied your proposals to utilize renewable energy
in a more socially equitable and ecologically responsible
fashion than the current mannor in which energy is
utilized. I believe firmly that economic initiatives
that promote cooperation rather than unmitigated competition
amongst states is one of the fastest routes to addressing
the urgent need to create an atmosphere of cooperation
to deal with the global threats to human security
the world faces today.
Reliance on depletable energy resources and energy systems
that produce excessively toxic waste products is irresponsible
and yet there seem to be so few alternatives discussed
in public dialogue. For that reason, GENI is an important
alternative.
Jonathon
G. Granoff, Chairman of Lawyers Alliance for World
Security
