For our kind of citizen its March Energy Madness every day of the rest of this planet! Here are some of the most exciting bottom up examinations of energy we have come across, please tell us others: Yunus http://gshakti.org /MIT-dlab/Germany's Nancy Wimmer Green Energy for a Billion Poor: How Grameen Shakti Created a Winning Model for Social Business by Nancy Wimmer (Feb 7, 2012)
This can be compared with example presented by German micro-energy network Mobisol at the world bank live spring summit 2014
| ..AJ Kalam, India's chief scientist and former president asked students to tear up non-sustainable curricula by 2020. Discuss some of these oppsoite way round values of renewable energy: clean prevents crisis of climate, poisoning food chains, need for ever more of planet to be used as dump sites of eg plastic.. abundant local security- prevents a nation's (or sub-nation) people being taken hostage by another's nation's ownership of carbon or nuclear energy in case of solar proves to be scalable one at a time (unlike massive grid infrastructures ) Trust Crisis of Public servants and professions- since world war 2 abetted by huge spends on tv advertising, the value chain of public servants has turned against 99% of the people in several ways which the system appears unable to free itself from. eg where governments have raced to spend money on the combination of nuclear arms and energy. It is arguable that if the world's politicians had directed a tenth of money spent on nuclear reearch to photosynthesis we'd be enjoying a wholly different planet. Always remember that nature's evolutionary designs are primarily bottom-up and open- where man designs too big systems around top-down and closed (highly boundarised) rules. #2030now asks those who come of age in their 21st century to integrate humanity's greatest ever collaboration goals with the defining advantages of post-industrial entrepreneurial revolution : *humanly being more connected than separated *digital code being replicable anywhere with cost of distance *ways knowhow can multiply value in use opposite to consuming up things |
Clean energy collaboration entrepreneurs can be linked with nearly 15 years of annual prizes awarded for microenenergy out of London by the Sainsbury Foundation, Prince Charles, BBC Nature Correspondenst, Royal Geographic Society and others of the network http://ashden.org
This can be linked to the passion for open education on sustainable energy led by the Turner Family out of Atlanta and seconded by Jimmy Carter Family whose presidency was the first to advance solar photovoltaic cells through the pioneering work of Neville Williams - see eg http://www.self.org

Atlanta's late great carpet manufacturer Ray Anderson proved that if you were prepared to spend half a generation redesigning supply chains even carpet manufacturing could profitably aim for zero footprint- when ones suffers so much greenwashing CSR one is left to wonders what sectors couldn't emulate InterfaceSustainability if conscious leadership cared as much as youth of the net generation
Yunus main corporate energy party ( The French company Schneider with its online energy university) has its main us research lab in Tennessee - the state of Al Gore and Inconvenient Truth. The founder of microcreditsummit is tee dyas to be found tutoring climate bottom-up lobbies at http://empoweringcitizens365.org
Friends of Atalanta and Yunus are also linking in Japan's most urgent clean energy networks - TOMODACHI US-Japan Youth Exchange to rebuild the north ofJapan , hit by massive earthquake and tsunami in 2011, led by the US Government
and the US-Japan Council. I have been connected with Iren Hirano, President of
the US-Japan Council who has a close relationship with the Consulate-General of
Japan in Atlanta (please visit: http://www.atlanta.us.emb-japan.go.jp/janetikeda.html). experts supporting this Japanese Initiative include Gunter Pauli who has mapped 100 million blue green jobs
