How will they write this chapter of history?There is still a path of hope for victory. The climate and environment crisis-and many of the resulting crises facing humanity - are closely related to energy. Energy is the Iifeblood of economic and social development connecting human activities and global ecology. However， the combustion and overuse of fossil fuels is also the perpetrator all our current crises. To escape our seemingly sealed fate and open a door to hope，human beings must hold hard to the key of clean development. Vigorously developing clean energy， accelerating the complete replacement of coal， oil， and natural gas with clean energies like wind， solar and hydro-power， creating a clean， efficient， and modern low-carbon energy system - this is the humanity's solution， its hope to pull through this crisis as a community with a shared destiny. Ending our reliance on fossil fuels will allow humankind to realize a global village with blue skies， green lands， clean waters， and harmonious relations.As a global solution that will rewrite history， Global Energy Interconnection （GEl） is a global platform for clean development. As a smart， user-friendly， and modern low-carbon energy network with global coverage and near-instant transmission， it can efficiently develop and distribute high-quality， and affordable clean energy to households anywhere in the world-all at a fast pace. As the world increasingly moves away from fossil fuels， GEI will come to replace the coal， oil， and natural gas systems in their entirety. It is the future's global energy system. As a practicable， economical， efficient， sophisticated， and win-win solutionto the current state of global emergency， GEl offers humans a /"panacea/" to turn crisis into opportunity. History will go to show， this is not the end， but a new chapter： GEl will play a crucial role in the continued history of human energy use， and a human community will join together to defeat crisis and share in a greater destiny.This report is divided into nine chapters. Chapter 1 reviews major crises that have ever descended upon humankind and reflects upon the tragic lessons learned in response.Chapter 2 reveals how humanity has entered a new era of frequent crises， facing more significant global-scale disturbances intertwining disasters of climate and environment，resources and energy， poverty and health. Chapter 3 illustrates humanity's dire need to value， attend to， and prevent the climate and environment crisis according to scientific facts， the consequences of loss， and development trends. Chapter 4 examines the underlying dilemmas of thought， activity， development models， and governance systems standing in the way of global crisis defeat. Chapter 5 proposes clean energy development as a way to crack the crisis. Chapter 6 introduces GEl as a systematic crisis solution.Chapter 7 analyzes GEl's advantages and applicability in terms of feasibility， technical economy， development methods， and global cooperation. Chapter 8 introduces ideas and focal points for the practical foundation， effective development， and future of GEI construction across six continents. Chapter 9 elucidates GEI's immense value toward mitigating the climate and environment crisis， protecting the earth， realizing sustainable development and improving human health and well-being， then looks into the bright prospects for humanity to embrace a sustainable world featuring a high level of clean development， electrification， intelligentization and humanization.The COVID-19 pandemic reminds us， we are a human community with a shared future，and no country can stand alone to address all the challenges faced by humankind.Solidarity， cooperation， support， and mutually beneficial development are the strongest weapons we have against crises. Let's take on this mission together， pursuing development for the whole of humankind and declaring war on upcoming crises hand in hand. We must take the fate of humanity and of Earth into our own hands， and quickly join together in GEl clean energy development initiatives. May the light of green development，harmony， and sustainability shine over the whole world！
