The EarthArk Project — Index Page

• The goal of The Earthark Project is to maximize the long term health of humanity and the Earth.
  1. 1 year goals
     1. Support fair but real population stabilization
     2. Support sustainable energy creation research
     3. Set up local Earthark collection sites with supplies
     4. Create lists and maps for Earthark collection sites
     5. Create lists and maps for Earthark storage sites
     6. Locate and plan possible Lifehaven sites
  2. 10 year goals
     1. Support robust worldwide population reduction
     2. Build large scale sustainable energy generators
     3. Maintain and expand collection program
     4. Put more varied stuff into the local Earthark sites
     5. Place an isotainer Earthark into central Antarctica
     6. Create a basic Lifehaven
  3. 100 year goals
     1. Implement robust world wide population reduction
     2. Build large scale energy and sequestration plants
     3. Create a base of several isotainers in Antarctica
     4. Create expanded local Earthark sites
     5. Place some isotainer Eartharks locally
     6. Create a fully functioning Lifehaven site
  4. 1,000 year goals
     1. Enforce populations aimed at a stable non-mining levels
     2. Pull toxic material from air such as CO2 and sequester
        1. Kerguelen Island has winds for the energy
        2. Lake Vostok like sites for wind and sequestration
        3. Pull toxic materials from land and ocean
     3. Achieve complete positive ecological restoration balance
     4. Maintain Lifehaven-Isotainer complex in Antarctica

• The methods for accomplishing the Earthark goals.
  1. Create an Earthark community of people
     1. Create the reasons and motivations for people to help.

     5. Schools
  5. Distribution methods
     1. Individual travelers’ luggage
     2. Mailing to locations near remote sites
     3. Networking collection sites for broader distribution
     4. Central collection centers
  6. Storage sites – Web sites, Maps and Directories
     1. Mountain
     2. Cave
     3. Desert
     4. Island
     5. Arctic
     6. Antarctica
  7. Isotainers
     1. Local pick up sites
     2. Local mailing drop off address
     3. Transporting to McMurdo Station and beyond
     4. Choosing final location sites
     5. Transporting to final site

• The Lifehaven Project is a parallel program to the Earthark Project. Its goals are to create complete miniature humanities located in remote locations and set them up to be totally self sustaining for more than one year.

• Sources of problems which appear to be unsolvable except with implementation of an Earthark and Lifehaven type strategy.
  1. Over population
  2. Resource depletion
  3. Pollution
  4. Wars
  5. Estimating reliable interactions between stressors
  6. Estimating coming disasters combined effects
  7. Natural variation of natures climate
  8. Variations of food supply
• Suggestions and complaints
  1. Make it all happen quicker before it is too late
  2. The population limitation plan counters natural urges
  3. We have problems enough let future people solve theirs
