Printable Version Statement by Nobel Laureates on the occasion of the one-hundredth anniversary of the Nobel Prize December 11, 2001 Introduction 110 Nobel Prize Winners Look Ahead On the 100th Anniversary of the Nobel Prize. Dateline Stockholm; December 11, 2001 The attached Statement was released as 150 Nobel Laureates gathered in Stockholm, Sweden, and Oslo, Norway, for an unprecedented celebration marking the 100th Anniversary of the Nobel Prize. (The prize winners in Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Literature and Economics meet in Stockholm where their prizes were awarded, and, correspondingly, the Peace Prize winners meet in Oslo.) In brief, the Statement warns that the world may explode into war if modern weapons continue to spread, and environmental strains remain unchecked. It stresses that we shall not have enduring peace until we address the twin scourges of poverty and oppression, and calls for a new sense of global responsibility. It hardly need be said that the signatories make no claim to oracular status, but offer their views as a group of concerned citizens.

Why War? why-war.com No Sweat Blackspot makes ethical shoes News/Opinion Afghanistan Al Qaeda ... January 28, 2003 "Forty-one American Nobel laureates in science and economics issued a declaration yesterday opposing a preventive war against Iraq without wide international support." Forty-one American Nobel laureates in science and economics issued a declaration yesterday opposing a preventive war against Iraq without wide international support. The statement, four sentences long, argues that an American attack would ultimately hurt the security and standing of the United States, even if it succeeds. The signers, all men, include a number who at one time or another have advised the federal government or played important roles in national security. Among them are Hans A. Bethe, an architect of the atom bomb; Walter Kohn, a former adviser to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency at the Pentagon; Norman F. Ramsey, a Manhattan Project scientist who readied the Hiroshima bomb and later advised NATO; and Charles H. Townes, former research director of the Institute for Defense Analyses at the Pentagon and chairman of a federal panel that studied how to base the MX missile and its nuclear warheads. In addition to winning Nobel prizes, 18 of the signers have received the National Medal of Science, the nation's highest science honor.

News for January 2003 Nobel laureates oppose war against Iraq 29 January 2003 Forty-one American Nobel laureates have signed a declaration opposing war with Iraq. The declaration was organised by Walter Kohn, a theoretical physicist at the University of California at Santa Barbara, and former adviser to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency at the Pentagon. The signatories include 19 winners of the physics prize. The declaration reads: "The undersigned oppose a preventive war against Iraq without broad international support. Military operations against Iraq may indeed lead to a relatively swift victory in the short term. But war is characterized by surprise, human loss and unintended consequences. Even with a victory, we believe that the medical, economic, environmental, moral, spiritual, political and legal consequences of an American preventive attack on Iraq would undermine, not protect, US security and standing in the world." The signatories include Norman Ramsey, who worked on the Manhattan Project, and Charles Townes, a former research director of the Institute for Defense Analyses at the Pentagon. Townes was also chairman of a federal panel that studied nuclear warheads.

Science Blog -- Forty Nobel Laureates Announce Support For `Therapeutic Cloning' Added Manganiello, The nobel statement comes at a critical time when the Senateis considering william N. lipscomb Abbot and James Lawrence Professor, http://www.scienceblog.com/community/older/archives/K/4/pub4169.html

Forty Nobel Laureates Announce Support For `Therapeutic Cloning'; Rare Public Statement Opposes Brownback Bill From: Maggie Goldberg for the Coalition for the Advancement of Medical Research, 202-833-0355 or 973-445-1921 WASHINGTON, April 10 Forty American Nobel Laureates, including pioneers in research on cancer and other life-threatening diseases, today released a joint statement strongly supporting nuclear transplantation technology for research and therapeutic purposes (more commonly known as therapeutic cloning.) The statement cites the critical role this research could play in the fight against "the most debilitating diseases known to man," and strongly opposes legislation proposed by Sen. Brownback (R-Kan.) that would ban nuclear transplantation technology. "Senator Brownback's legislation, if it becomes law, would have a chilling effect on all scientific research in the United States," the Nobel Laureates say. "We decided to speak out to clear up the confusion that has arisen about this issue. Cloning humans and `therapeutic cloning' (or nuclear transplantation technology) are fundamentally different," said Paul Berg, who won the Nobel Prize in 1980. "The cloning of a human being should be prohibited. Nuclear transplantation technology, on the other hand, is meant to produce stem cells, not babies." "This impressive statement underlines what advocates for the 100 million Americans with life-threatening diseases have been saying: this really is a matter of life and death," said Michael Manganiello, president of the Coalition for the Advancement of Medical Research. "Nuclear transplantation technology means hope. The Brownback bill would deny it."

100. 100 Nobel Laureates Warn Our Planet! OSLO, Norway December 7, 2001 At the nobel Peace Prize william N. LipscombChemistry, 1976 Alan G. MacDiarmid Chemistry, 2000 http://www.lovearth.net/100NobelLaureatesWarnOurPlanet.htm

100 Nobel Laureates Warn Our Planet OSLO, Norway December 7, 2001 At the Nobel Peace Prize Centennial Symposium here yesterday celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Nobel prize, 100 Nobel laureates have issued a brief but dire warning of the "profound dangers" facing the world. Their statement predicts that our security depends on immediate environmental and social reform. The following is the text of their statement: THE STATEMENT The most profound danger to world peace in the coming years will stem not from the irrational acts of states or individuals but from the legitimate demands of the world's dispossessed. Of these poor and disenfranchised, the majority live a marginal existence in equatorial climates. Global warming, not of their making but originating with the wealthy few, will affect their fragile ecologies most. Their situation will be desperate and manifestly unjust. It cannot be expected, therefore, that in all cases they will be content to await the beneficence of the rich. If then we permit the devastating power of modern weaponry to spread through this combustible human landscape, we invite a conflagration that can engulf both rich and poor. The only hope for the future lies in co-operative international action, legitimized by
