Tom Blees is the author of Prescription for the Planet - The Painless Remedy for Our Energy & Environmental Crises. Tom is also the president of the Science Council for Global Initiatives. Many of the goals of SCGI, and the methods to achieve them, are elucidated in the pages of Blees's book. He is a member of the selection committee for the Global Energy Prize, considered Russia's equivalent of the Nobel Prize for energy research. His work has generated considerable interest among scientists and political figures around the world. Tom has been a consultant and advisor on energy technologies on the local, state, national, and international levels.

We are the SCGI, an international nonprofit organization dedicated to informing the public and policymakers about technologies and strategies that can lead to an energy-rich world. SCGI provides a forum for many of the world's prominent scientists, authors and activists to collaborate and share their knowledge regarding solutions to the world's energy, resource and environmental problems.

We can accomplish these goals now:

  • Eliminate air pollution
  • Recycle spent nuclear fuel
  • Bring the fossil fuel era to an end
  • Prevent resource wars, including looming water wars
  • Effortlessly recycle virtually all of our waste products
  • Power our vehicles with zero-emission energy systems
  • Provide abundant energy and fresh water to every nation
  • Reduce human-caused greenhouse gas emissions to a trickle
  • Diminish the world’s nuclear arsenals, turn old nuclear weapons into energy

Technologies that can lead us to a post-scarcity era:

  • Integral Fast Reactors (using "nuclear waste" for fuel)
  • Zero-emission vehicle technologies
  • Plasma recyclers
