As parents, looking at the scientific predictions of the effects of climate change - and at one news report after another showing flooding, drought, tsunami or earthquake, it has become clearly obvious that we need to start to pull together to give all children and future generations, the opportunity of living through our changing environment.
Pulling together in a co-operateve manner at times of crisis, not only allows us ways of sharing all our own knowledge and experience, but it also goes to show our strength in number.
Global Ark Projects has been founded to supply a platform for the options which as concerned parents, we all need to consider. Through our non-profit distribution, our ultimate aim is to provide children with the opportunity of A tomorrow.
Founded by members of “the public” at grass root level, for others in similar circumstance and opinion, and for all future generations, we are totally inclusive. Regardless of politics, faith or any other discriminating factor, we are open to all climatically aware and concerned people across the world, although until we have opened our visitor centres, access is unfortunately limited to those who can access us via the internet.
Our concern is humanitarian. Climate change has the potential to be THE biggest humanitarian catastrophe in this planet's history, and we want nothing more than to provide ways to safeguard not only our own children's future, but everyone else's', everywhere.
We can also clearly see that alternative forms of energy and heating are becoming available to the consumer, but many people are financially limited to the traditional forms of heating and power. There is a huge gulf between being concerned about the environment and being able to afford to do anything about living sustainably ourselves.
Global Ark Projects' aim is to help everyone who is climatically concerned wanting to live more sustainably, to be able to achieve their aims. Climate change is happening far too quickly for the existing, traditional wheels to keep up with, and we have put together a practical series of steps which will fast-track sustainable living, for everyone concerned.
Our feedback and survey forms are set up to be able to determine clearly, what everyone joining our membership is seeking personally by way of a sustainable or self-sufficient lifestyle – and our aim is to help you to achieve that – not by telling you how, but by working with you personally.
Your own membership will provide the means to help you find your own level of sustainability, and provide shopping channels which are only ethically geared.
As a consumer looking for ethical or environmental products and services, we condense your search and provide the feedback to help you choose.
As a supplier, company or organisation, we offer you the opportunity of listing your service or product in a directory specifically geared to your market.
Net funds from commissions will be re-distributed to help form sustainable community living projects. Many people globally are already suffering one environmental catastrophe after another, and millions are dying through either famine, drought, or flooding. We offer the practical means to help.
Once a suitable scale of operations has been reached, the site will morph into a full-blown search engine in conjunction with one of the main search engine providers:
- Firstly, companies listing their products or service with us will show their own climatic and humanitarian concerns by their sponsored links, sales commissions and marketing. The profits derived through their own sales, becomes the funding for us to use as a non-profit distributing organisation, with humanitarian and climatic concerns.
- Secondly, as well as helping to save people's valuable time trawling through all “other” resources by giving a catalogued and concentrated search. We will use the income derived through your own purchases through this website, to help you to live in a self-sufficient, sustainable and/or low-impacting manner.
Whether you are hoping to adapt your existing building/s to cope with the predicted climate changes, or whether you actually want to live in a completely low-impacting and alternative manner, we will have the resources to help you through your own active support.
The way this works is simple;
One example is that the broadband service provider which the founder has used for many years, prides itself both on its carbon neutral philosophy, and on being the most sustainable internet service provider in the UK.
This multi-award winning company provides a reliable internet service with full technical support services. Although many people may not have heard of them, they offer us a sponsored link which, when converted into a new contract by our membership, can pay Global Ark Projects up to £80 – dependant upon the type of service contract.
For the purpose of this one company, as an example of how we can so simply offer you the sustainable supporting services you are hoping to find; if 50,000 climatically concerned people went through this website to switch their service providers, this would give us a gross income of up to £4 million!! (And 1 million people switching over to use this sustainable internet service provider = circa £80,000,000 – and this figure is just the potential turnover from ONE service provider!)
Obviously, all who become members of this organisation, who continue to come back again and again to use this website to gain access to such services and products, equate to the possibility of potentially huge numbers of people who we will then be able to help live sustainably – and create a more ethical, balanced economy in the process.
We will also offer the potential to list reviews of the products and services – and of the service of the suppliers – from existing users and customers.
Our services will include links with existing sustainable communities and other end users happy to share their own findings of the services and reliability of those renewable energy providers which we will be listing.
Many people are considering the alternatives, and are finding the decisions in the investment in the initial additional outlay difficult to quantify. Obviously there is a vast difference between purchasing your own renewable and passive energy components, and installation of the basic features which will allow you to use the more traditional mains suppliers.
What helps to make these complicated decisions easier, is the members of the public letting others know of the good, or the bad - of the pitfalls, and the benefits.
Some companies work purely on maximising their profits at the expense of others – only yesterday (18th July 2009), we heard of a solar panel supplier who fraudulently advertised “a complete kit” for a set cost. Seemingly a reputable solar panel supplier, our contact was shocked to find that the “complete” kit, consisted solely of the pump assembly. There was no solar panel at all!! - Even though this was clearly shown on the suppliers website.
Such incidents and fraudulent practices are not to be condoned. Especially when we are all looking to find viable, sustainable alternatives, in a “new” market area.
We will provide you, as our concerned readership, with somewhere to list your own projects – and any personal findings such as that listed above.
We will also provide you with the opportunity of asking your own questions, and will post further surveys and polls on our main website for other members to give their own feedback.
Global Ark Projects offers a full range of services through its varied projects and initiatives.
The complexities of climate change need to be matched by a whole series of methods and practical opportunities, and we have put together a comprehensive range of interconnecting “wheels” which, when turning, will act as the self-sufficient escalator which will fast-track sustainable innovations, and provide us all with the evolutionary processes to be able to give children the opportunity of A tomorrow.
Explaining how all the wheels of our sustainable and self-sufficient escalator interconnect, and provide practical solutions to the problems facing us all, is not an easy task. Therefore all the articles published on this website at our launch, are geared to explain how we work, how these services all connect together, and how our projects will help everyone to achieve their own sustainable aims.
We also aim to show others what the effects of climate change are going to be. Our own research in the formation of our projects and proposals is listed for you to follow too – and at all times, we will aim to operate with clear transparency, for everyone, everywhere.
Knowing that there are many more people who are just starting to look at the scientific findings and predictions, as soon as possible, we will stream the latest research through one or more of the ships which form our “Ark Flotilla”.
The initiation to all our projects and services, is your membership, and the completion of our feedback/survey form. As someone who already knows what the future holds, we know that your combined voice with our organisation, is the impetus which will propel our ship, and cut a line through the traditional obstacles which have continued to prevent our move into a “greener” and more ethically balanced future.
