Endorsements/Comments previously received:

The ROSE organisation already has multinational support and can justify its claim to be worldwide. We invite you to seriously consider supporting us as those below have.

Aubrey Meyer – Director, Global Commons Institute. (http://www.gci.org.uk/)

Author, ‘Contraction & Convergence’.
Commented: Keep on keeping on!

Roger Doudna – Internnat. Programme Officer, Restore the Earth project.
(http://www.restore-earth.org/)
Commented: Looks real good to me. Cuts to the proverbial quick.

John Manoochehri

Commented: It’s great. You also said the right thing about the WTO –

WTO is what needs to be matched not because it’s good but because it’s out of control! On a personal level I am completely behind you.

John Bunzl – Author ‘The Simultaneous Policy – An Insider’s Guide to Saving Humanity and the Planet.’ Director, ISPO. [International Simultaneous Policy Organisation] (http://www.simpol.org/)

Commented: I’d be pleased if you will list my personal endorsement of it and I wish you every success with it. Cooperation is, as Rose rightly points out, THE name of the game if we want to survive.

Hanne Strong – Initiator, Earth Restoration Corp(http://www.restoreearth.org/)

President, Manitou Foundation (USA).

Commented: It’s a wonderful idea. We all have different paths to our joint objective!

Commented: I am happy to endorse your project.

Resurgence magazine – (http://www.resurgence.org/) an international forum for ecological and spiritual thinking
Commented: The vision and aims of ROSE are commendable, and let us hope they are achievable too. Resurgence magazine has been articulating alternatives to the indiscriminate and ubiquitous use of fossil fuels, and in the last ten years, we have seen a growing awareness that these alternatives are achievable, sustainable and practicable. So we are happy to endorse the work of ROSE.

Nick Brown – Author, ‘Steps to Sustainability’. Founder, Moray Sustainable Forum. Coordinator, Aberdeenshire Towns Partnership. Scotland.
Commented: I would have thought that any sane person could not but fail to support the principles behind such a venture. I think that business and gov’t won’t actually take the lead here, so bodies like ROSE have great merit. Particularly like the WEO idea, sad though it may be that it is a necessary counterbalance.

Association of Retired Generals & Admirals] (http://www.wcarga.org/).

But where is the action from governments? They need to be called to the task by dedicated individuals and organisations such as the one you are bringing to birth.
