Testimonials

Below are some of the statements we have received to date from organizations and individuals around the world who have kindly expressed their support of the World Resources Forum.
 

"Without any doubt such an initiative is of
highest value and necessary in this time."
Klaus Töpfer - Deputy Chairman of the German Council for Sustainable Development & Former Executive Director of the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP)
 

"The work of the Forum is of the highest importance
at this juncture of human history and I would certainly
wish to contribute to it in any way I can."
Ashok Khosla - Co-President Club of Rome
 

"Breaking the links between economic growth
and environmental degradation is possible.
This is what the new UNEP Resource Panel is all about.
We are very pleased to have the Forum as one of our partners."
Bas de Leeuw, Head Resource Panel Secretariat UNEP
 

"This is an important initiative if it is able to
proceed from declarations to governments,
corporations and universities to take concrete actions -
as time is really running out on us across the world."
Aromar Revi - Director TARU Leading Edge Consulting Group; & Fellow of India China Institute
 

"Unless resource availability and use is given far more attention
in economic analysis and policy, resource crises of increasing severity
may be predicted. I hope that the World Resources Forum
will start a process among policy and decision-makers of placing
a far greater emphasis on resource use and how to keep
that use within the capacity of the earth."
Paul Ekins - Professor Department of Geography, King's College London
