Environmental & Ethical Points of Reference:
Listing those Environmental Organisations & Research/Advisors Published Papers researched for the formation of the working strategy and the “Letter of Logic” of Global Ark Projects – detailed list not inclusive – data also accumulated from any number of total sources for the purpose of clarifying the overall climate predictions and requirement for sustainability in all aspects of our proposals.
N.B. The organisations listed here were used as a point of reference for the original proposals, those used for the full report, and for all subsequent amendments to the proposals are yet to be included in this list. As soon as possible, we will be adding these to this list, and also dividing them all out into the relevant groups on each of our Ark projects.

(CNN) --The indigenous people of Alaska have stood firm against some of the most extreme weather conditions on Earth for thousands of years. But now, flooding blamed on climate change is forcing at least one Eskimo village to move to safer ground. - (continuing)... Newtok is just one example of what the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change warns is part of a growing climate change crisis that will displace 150 million people by 2050.

As glaciers melt they lighten the load on the Earth’s crust. Tectonic plates, that are mobile pieces of the Earth’s crust, can then move more freely.” [The study appeared in the July 2004 issue of the Journal of Global and Planetary Change.]”
