The present economic and environmental crisis may serve as an opportunity and challenge to formulate a new strategy in building a Green Society of hope. The Biopolitics International Organisation (B.I.O.) a pioneer in environmental issues, since its inception in 1985, with representatives in 138 countries, requests that decisive progress be achieved, leading to the implementation of dynamic Copenhagen 2009 resolutions, by:
- Believing that a Green Renaissance can allow the sailing into a bright future.
- Underscoring the need to reverse unemployment and environmental deterioration by implementing a green salaries strategy. The active contribution of a global Youth Movement may contribute greatly to the mitigation of climate change.
- Recognising the negative impacts of global warming on the realisation of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
- Emphasizing the importance of bio-assessment of technology to ensure the protection of the bio-environment.
- Stressing the need to formulate a common policy for the preservation of our forests, including projects on the development of bacterial synthesis of cellulose and all natural resources especially water.
- Affirming the necessity to explore nature’s biological mechanisms in creating clean energy from the oceans, algae and photosynthesis.
- Realizing the critical role of oceans in global warming and in the supply of food resources.
- Emphasizing the use of new technologies for the realization of a World Referendum, allowing every citizen of the world to commit themselves in the building of this new society.
- Highlighting the necessity of Global Education as a vital step for saving the environment. In this spirit, the International University for the Bio-Environment (I.U.B.E., founded by B.I.O. in 1991) promotes environmental thinking and places universal protection of the environment at the core of every curriculum and debate.
- Acknowledging the crucial role of the Media as a global platform for building a green society.
- Encouraging the value of bio-diversity by creating local Genetic Banks.
- Confirming the need for an Electronic Bank of Ideas to inform on the beauty of cultural diversity, new technologies for climate change protection and networking among concerned citizens.
- Recognizing that migration problems, triggered by global warming will escalate, if action is not taken immediately.
- Promoting the implementation of Environmental Olympics, as a means to enrich the Olympic Games by including every occupation.
- Recognizing that urban agglomerations are major contributors to global warming and must find ways to transform themselves into zero-emissions cities.
- Pressing the world’s powerful military establishments to be gradually transformed into forces of peace that restore the bio-system, mitigate climate change, protect the global environment and help bring life back to its original environment.
- Requesting the commitment of heads of states, leaders and every member of society to the preservation of bios-life-on the planet.
- Urging all global leaders to adopt bio-diplomacy and consider the ticking clock of destruction while there is still time.
