The transformation to sustainability and/as ways to happiness

What seems to be heard most often are the environmentalists predicting doom, and the deniers and delayers arguing that change would hurt us, personally and economically.Recently, we see an emergent understanding that a transformation to sustainability is actually not just about hard choices for "saving the planet," but about ways in which human happiness can ...learn more

About  [Edit]

In recent months, the threat of proliferation and nuclear terrorism has led to a growing chorus of world leaders calling for the elimination of all nuclear weapons. 

Global Zero will support these leaders in this endeavor by combining high-level policy work with global public outreach to achieve a comprehensive agreement to eliminate all nuclear weapons worldwide through phased and verified reductions. Global Zero is a new international initiative that launched in Paris, Moscow and Washington December 9-11.

Global Zero's international team of policy experts has developed a draft step-by-step plan addressing the critical issues necessary to reach the end state of zero nuclear weapons.

Global Zero is committed to building broad-based and sustained public support for political leaders to pursue and achieve the vision of eliminating nuclear weapons—through worldwide media and online communications and grassroots organizing. At its public launch, Global Zero released the results of its recently commissioned poll of 21 countries that shows overwhelming worldwide support for an international agreement to eliminate all nuclear weapons according to a timetable.

Global Zero is spearheaded by more than 100 political, military, business, faith and civic leaders from around the world and from across political lines.  Beginning with its inaugural conference in Paris December 8-9, Global Zero will conduct a series of international events, including a World Summit for 500 leaders in January 2010.
