Desc990 PROGRAMS BRIEFINGDespite the many unusual challenges presented by a world impacted by dramatic challenges, 2021 was a very productive year for our U.S. headquarters. With each of the environmental challenges we take on, we apply a 6-step process:1) Identify an important environmental problem; 2) Research it in depth to truly pinpoint its source; 3) Using logic, common sense, and science-based methods, find and/or develop a solution that has no environmental tradeoffs and would work for all involved; 4) Implement the solution or get it into the hands of those who will; 5) Create educational materials and solution models for export, as appropriate; 6) Repeat steps 1 to 5.While each situation has its own set of challenges, by following the steps above, we are able to take on a wide variety of environmental issues with the end goal in mind of restoring ecosystems to enhance the health and future of all life. Our 3 main areas of focus in 2021 were:1) RESOLVING WATER ISSUES, including clean water supply scarcities caused by severe drought, water contamination, and flawed water management practices that are threatening the health of habitats.Our primary focus this year was on the advancement of our Deep Seated Water Technology. Deep-seated water is high-quality groundwater that is typically sourced from deep aquifers that are located below the shallow aquifers normally tapped into with water wells. Our Deep Seated Water Technology (DSW Tech) is a systematic method utilizing advanced technologies for locating previously-hidden, near-surface access points to these abundant alternative water resources. In addition to being a highly advanced method of locating deep sources of water, DSW Tech includes additional methods that help to restore healthy habitat. Here are the key milestones our DSW science and tech experts achieved this year:A. We improved technical methods by which regional studies are performed to identify the most likely, near-surface areas for water exploration. Through several field studies in California and Texas, we customized a process using instruments and specialized software for mapping below-surface geology and prospective DSW locations and documented the information for future training purposes. This work helped landowners and regional governing bodies lower the risk and expense of drilling dry boreholes. B. We completed water solution studies on approximately 300,000 square miles of Australia. This included completing advanced regional studies for most of the province called South Australia, including the Adelaide Region, Port Augusta, the Flinders Ranges region, as well as the Murray Basin and several large cattle/sheep stations (Australian ranches) including the Monash Station, Kokatha Pastoral, Roxby Downs, Purple Downs and Andamooka Stations, and Port Lincoln. C. The Southwestern United States has been undergoing severe drought. Individual landowners as well as regional planners are in desperate need of more effective water management strategies. This year our progress in this region included conducting advanced regional studies in 12 regions of Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and Nevada.D. As the average reported success rate for most water well drilling operations is about 40%, our advancements in analysis techniques to enable far more precise well drilling operations is an enormous leap forward for the science of water location and drilling. This included the development and integration of different GIS (Geospatial Information Systems) software programs, creating an advanced, one-of-kind proprietary process for identifying water exploration zones. We then formalized the processes we developed into technical checklists to enable the training of others. E. A necessary part of accessing groundwater supplies from any source is ensuring they are free from contamination. This year our science team continued searching for best available technologies for cleaning water supplies that remove contamination without destroying the natural health of the water. There is more testing to do but, thus far, our research has had excellent outcomes for improving the quality of groundwater, when necessary. F. Our scientists presented findings at three large groundwater conferences;G. Our staff did extensive groundwater and agricultural market research in the Middle East, North Africa, and United States farming regions as part of our study of best ways to overcome barriers to the implementation of our Deep-Seated Water Technology. 2) RESTORING DYING LAND, SOIL AND HABITAT: Desertification is the process by which fertile land becomes desert, typically because of drought, deforestation, and/or unsustainable agriculture practices. We are currently integrating a range of complementary soil restoration methods and technologies that restore soil fertility and productivity without the use of toxic chemicals. We can facilitate the swift and entirely safe removal of many of the most prevalent soil contaminants from agricultural chemicals. In addition, we are expanding our research into methods to enhance the activity of a plant's own internal processes. As a part of our research into identifying best practices for soil and habitat restoration, we conducted the first phase of a program to rehabilitate a highly contaminated section of land in Texas. 3) RAISING AWARENESS AND ACTION TOWARDS CONSTRUCTIVE ENVIRONMENTAL CHOICES: We conduct education programs that change the underlying cultural attitudes that throw people out of harmony with the natural world.The most fundamental concept that must be imbued into society to truly reverse worsening environmental situations is how ones own survival is interwoven with, and interdependent upon the health and survival of those life forms and things around one. Our trademarked terms Cooperative Ecology and its abbreviation, CoEco, embrace this concept and we are creating educational materials, books and courses for schools and homeschools, as well as the general adult public, based on this principle. Demonstrably, the children who learn and apply even the most fundamental CoEco principles are far more cognizant of the world around them, have raised awareness of their impact on the environment, and they realize that those individuals and species who live most successfully are those who actively work to enhance the life and things around them upon which their own life depends.This year, we continued to refine and expand our CoEco educational materials, particularly for the ages of 8- to 14-year-olds. We piloted a new study manual and its orientation guide to very good results with primarily underserved migrant farmworkers children attending Pixley Middle School in the Kern County California Public Schools system.Additionally, we wrote a basic book for adults called Cooperative Ecology: How to Live a Successful Life as well as an extension course based on it, and conducted a pilot. 4) Oil Spill Cleanup: In 2010, LAEO identified and began advocating for an optimum solution for cleaning up large-scale oil spills: Enzymatic Bioremediation. This highly effective method has no environmental tradeoffs or other negative impacts and efficiently converts oil into benign substances. The effectiveness of Enzymatic Bioremediation was documented and published in our investigative report: A Twenty-First Century Solution in Oil Spill Response. This vitally important paper has inspired the use of enzymatic bioremediation in over 70 countries and continues to be used to raise awareness of real solutions available to all for effectively cleaning up toxic spills.Desc

STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS:990 PROGRAMS BRIEFINGDespite the many unusual challenges presented by a world impacted by dramatic challenges, 2021 was a very productive year for our U.S. headquarters. With each of the environmental challenges we take on, we apply a 6-step process:1) Identify an important environmental problem; 2) Research it in depth to truly pinpoint its source; 3) Using logic, common sense, and science-based methods, find and/or develop a solution that has no environmental tradeoffs and would work for all involved; 4) Implement the solution or get it into the hands of those who will; 5) Create educational materials and solution models for export, as appropriate; 6) Repeat steps 1 to 5.While each situation has its own set of challenges, by following the steps above, we are able to take on a wide variety of environmental issues with the end goal in mind of restoring ecosystems to enhance the health and future of all life. Our 3 main areas of focus in 2021 were:1) RESOLVING WATER ISSUES, including clean water supply scarcities caused by severe drought, water contamination, and flawed water management practices that are threatening the health of habitats.Our primary focus this year was on the advancement of our Deep Seated Water Technology. Deep-seated water is high-quality groundwater that is typically sourced from deep aquifers that are located below the shallow aquifers normally tapped into with water wells. Our Deep Seated Water Technology (DSW Tech) is a systematic method utilizing advanced technologies for locating previously-hidden, near-surface access points to these abundant alternative water resources. In addition to being a highly advanced method of locating deep sources of water, DSW Tech includes additional methods that help to restore healthy habitat. Here are the key milestones our DSW science and tech experts achieved this year:A. We improved technical methods by which regional studies are performed to identify the most likely, near-surface areas for water exploration. Through several field studies in California and Texas, we customized a process using instruments and specialized software for mapping below-surface geology and prospective DSW locations and documented the information for future training purposes. This work helped landowners and regional governing bodies lower the risk and expense of drilling dry boreholes. B. We completed water solution studies on approximately 300,000 square miles of Australia. This included completing advanced regional studies for most of the province called South Australia, including the Adelaide Region, Port Augusta, the Flinders Ranges region, as well as the Murray Basin and several large cattle/sheep stations (Australian ranches) including the Monash Station, Kokatha Pastoral, Roxby Downs, Purple Downs and Andamooka Stations, and Port Lincoln. C. The Southwestern United States has been undergoing severe drought. Individual landowners as well as regional planners are in desperate need of more effective water management strategies. This year our progress in this region included conducting advanced regional studies in 12 regions of Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and Nevada.D. As the average reported success rate for most water well drilling operations is about 40%, our advancements in analysis techniques to enable far more precise well drilling operations is an enormous leap forward for the science of water location and drilling. This included the development and integration of different GIS (Geospatial Information Systems) software programs, creating an advanced, one-of-kind proprietary process for identifying water exploration zones. We then formalized the processes we developed into technical checklists to enable the training of others. E. A necessary part of accessing groundwater supplies from any source is ensuring they are free from contamination. This year our science team continued searching for best available technologies for cleaning water supplies that remove contamination without destroying the natural health of the water. There is more testing to do but, thus far, our research has had excellent outcomes for improving the quality of groundwater, when necessary. F. Our scientists presented findings at three large groundwater conferences;G. Our staff did extensive groundwater and agricultural market research in the Middle East, North Africa, and United States farming regions as part of our study of best ways to overcome barriers to the implementation of our Deep-Seated Water Technology. 2) RESTORING DYING LAND, SOIL AND HABITAT: Desertification is the process by which fertile land becomes desert, typically because of drought, deforestation, and/or unsustainable agriculture practices. We are currently integrating a range of complementary soil restoration methods and technologies that restore soil fertility and productivity without the use of toxic chemicals. We can facilitate the swift and entirely safe removal of many of the most prevalent soil contaminants from agricultural chemicals. In addition, we are expanding our research into methods to enhance the activity of a plant's own internal processes. As a part of our research into identifying best practices for soil and habitat restoration, we conducted the first phase of a program to rehabilitate a highly contaminated section of land in Texas. 3) RAISING AWARENESS AND ACTION TOWARDS CONSTRUCTIVE ENVIRONMENTAL CHOICES: We conduct education programs that change the underlying cultural attitudes that throw people out of harmony with the natural world.The most fundamental concept that must be imbued into society to truly reverse worsening environmental situations is how ones own survival is interwoven with, and interdependent upon the health and survival of those life forms and things around one. Our trademarked terms Cooperative Ecology and its abbreviation, CoEco, embrace this concept and we are creating educational materials, books and courses for schools and homeschools, as well as the general adult public, based on this principle. Demonstrably, the children who learn and apply even the most fundamental CoEco principles are far more cognizant of the world around them, have raised awareness of their impact on the environment, and they realize that those individuals and species who live most successfully are those who actively work to enhance the life and things around them upon which their own life depends.This year, we continued to refine and expand our CoEco educational materials, particularly for the ages of 8- to 14-year-olds. We piloted a new study manual and its orientation guide to very good results with primarily underserved migrant farmworkers children attending Pixley Middle School in the Kern County California Public Schools system.Additionally, we wrote a basic book for adults called Cooperative Ecology: How to Live a Successful Life as well as an extension course based on it, and conducted a pilot. 4) Oil Spill Cleanup: In 2010, LAEO identified and began advocating for an optimum solution for cleaning up large-scale oil spills: Enzymatic Bioremediation. This highly effective method has no environmental tradeoffs or other negative impacts and efficiently converts oil into benign substances. The effectiveness of Enzymatic Bioremediation was documented and published in our investigative report: A Twenty-First Century Solution in Oil Spill Response. This vitally important paper has inspired the use of enzymatic bioremediation in over 70 countries and continues to be used to raise awareness of real solutions available to all for effectively cleaning up toxic spills.
