EUROSOLAR and WCRE call for a Climate Peace Diplomacy

Bonn, February 7, 2022. EUROSOLAR calls the countries of Europe, the United States, Russia, China and other nations to enter into a World Climate Peace Agreement and Summit, to avert both major threats: climate and war catastrophes. EUROSOLAR e.V. and EUROSOLAR’s chapters, as well as the World Council for Renewable Energy (WCRE) can offer their networks and platforms to help initiate this process, with the goal of accelerating towards the Regenerative Era based on 100% renewable energy supply, and at the same time to avoid, contain and end acts of war since they directly hinder climate stabilization.

EUROSOLAR President Prof. Peter Droege: “The time for Climate Peace Diplomacy has come. It is essential to be able to focus on and confront the common threat to planetary security and habitability“.

EUROSOLAR proposes a Regenerative Earth Decade. The Regenerative Earth Decade (RED) is EUROSOLAR’s call for a comprehensive breakthrough in climate and energy policy at international level. The Program is based on the two findings that the destabilization of the earth’s climate is much more advanced than previously assumed and none of the current targets or measures are sufficient to change this fact. The RED program insists that it is not too late, but that action now must be far more focused and comprehensive.

The WCRE calls for social justice and environmental health through renewable energy

EUROSOLAR stands for comprehensive and peaceful sustainability through distributed and renewable energy. Its very mission and future visions are founded on real democracy and self-determination of local and regional cultures and identities: the evolution and liberation of the human spirit in pursuit of planetary harmony and human rights.

These universal values are fundamentally incompatible with the ugly resurrection of oppressive, centralist, oligarchic and injust policies and practices in various countries of Europe and the world, seeking to deny these basic rights, and squelching the ability to think and act freely in the interest of environmental sustainability and social justice.

Renewables for global peace and security in an age of cyberwar

On the occasion of the Bonn Climate Change Conference, June 17 - 27 2019, EUROSOLAR calls for a long overdue emergency response: The massive deployment of Decentralised Renewable Energy Systems. The most recent power outages in South America also show that the projections, goals and methods of both international conferences and national pathways are still entirely inadequate.

For a Solar Subsidiarity Standard in Renewable Action: European Unity, Climate Catastrophy – and the Mission of Renewables

Statement by Professor Peter Droege, General Chairman of WCRE, President of EUROSOLAR

'There are two major threats, both man-made, to our collective survival: nuclear war and out-of-control climate chaos. Avoiding both requires determination, unity, collaboration and focus. Here it is important to overcome mistakes of divisiveness and hegemony of the past and allow enlightened and harmonious regional diversity to prosper - to build a mature, authentic and resilient Europe – one founded on Renewable Energy. The Treaty of Maastricht, freshly interpreted, offers guidance on how to rapidly implement a fully renewable, decarbonised Europe.
