WISE - World Information Service on Energy

According to their website, this is what WISE is all about: "We're small. We're powerful. We are proud of what we have achieved. We are anxious to go on, serving the people with important information and skills. We are celebrating our 20th anniversary, in Amsterdam, in our small office with the only four people working at WISE International, of whom only one is paid. By making this "Magazine of Hope", we also want to celebrate our 20th anniversary with the thousands of people working against nukes all over the world; in big organizations with plenty of paid staff, in local rural groups printing their first leaflet ever, ready to go out and educate the people. We express our solidarity with the radicals blocking the growth of nuclear energy with direct actions and we value the triple-dressed lobbyman talking with the politicians and industry doing the same."
