MANIFESTO. [italiano]. [english]. [español].

Since the beginning of its evolution, mankind has almost always managed to use the most effectual instruments to get to his aim. During the last few centuries, the progress of science and technology has impressively reached important targets that have implemented the management of the available resources.

Considering that, as confirmed by general behaviour, human society shows no
sign of drawing back in the usage of the new technologies and that, notwithstanding some policies of birth control, the total number of human beings is destined to grow;

Taking into consideraton that the negative aspects of technical and technological progress, such as pollution and practical and theoretical errors, are constantly and regularly reduced in number although, due to the growth of emerging countries and to local stratification in the course of years, increased in volume;

Relaying on the fact, so far confirmed, that only scientific progress can help overcome the imperfections, deficiencies and errors of the past (confirmed by the evident difference of the standard in the countries of advanced technology in comparison with that of the so-called third and fourth world);

Aware of the fact that the eternal and fundamental problems of humankind will not find a solution in the near future but also that it is possible to make a step in the direction of a more acceptable daily life;

Refusing the paralyzing arguments of those ecological organizations that disseminate an aprioristic NO in the name of an imaginary sustainable growth sometimes based on anti-scientific and anti-economical concepts usually ideologically and emotively influenced;

Remarking with disappointment that - due to apathy and ignorance more than
conscious choice or knowledge - scientific methodology as well as rational intuition are too often placed at the same level as religious beliefs and New-age hallucinations

We are persuaded
that it is necessary to urgently organize a movement opposing the various and different "ecological moralism" and the darkening choices affecting scientific and medical research, promoting Scientific and Technical knowledge at all levels by choosing instruments of public and political pressure in order to give full evidence to the natural faculties of mankind to modify, beyond any prejudice, man and his surroundings, using all the instruments functional to the evolution of a society based on the use of Reason.
