| Desc | COOPERATIVE ECOLOGY EDUCATION PROGRAM: OUR SECOND IN A SERIES OF EDUCATIONAL MANUALS ON THE SUBJECT OF COOPERATIVE ECOLOGY WAS PUBLISHED, THIS TIME WITH AN ADDITIONAL COURSE FOR TEENAGERS, AND WAS PILOTED IN CRESCENTA VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL, LA CRESCENTA, CA. THE COURSE IS IN PREPARATION FOR ROLL OUT THROUGH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS AND HOME-SCHOOLS.

ALSO, OUR SENIOR EXECS WERE KEYNOTE SPEAKERS AT A VARIETY OF EVENTS, SUCH AS ROTARY AND OTHER PHILANTHROPIC CLUB MEETINGS AND WEBINARS TO FORWARD THE COECO MESSAGE, RAISING AWARENESS OF HUMANITY'S VITAL PARTNERSHIP FOR SURVIVAL WITH THE NATURAL WORLD. COECO EDUCATIONAL SAILING ADVENTURE FOR TEENS: WE CONDUCTED A 2-WEEK COECO SAILING SHIP ADVENTURE FOR TEENS ON THE CARIBBEAN ISLAND OF SAN ANDREAS TO HEIGHTEN THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF THE INTERDEPENDENCE OF ALL LIFE FORMS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF THEIR DAILY CHOICES IN PROTECTING THE WORLD AROUND THEM. COOPERATIVE ECOLOGY SAFARI: WE CONDUCTED AN EDUCATIONAL ECO SAFARI TO SOUTH AFRICA TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE COECO CONCEPT AND TO SUPPORT THE CONSERVATION EFFORTS OF SEVERAL WILDLIFE PRESERVES THERE. RHINO ORPHANAGE -A TEAM OF TWO PEOPLE FROM THE U.S. WERE SENT ON A MISSION TO OUR RHINO ORPHANAGE IN SOUTH AFRICA TO RELOCATE STAFF AND ANIMALS TO SAFETY AFTER A SERIOUS POACHING INCIDENT.

| FORM 990 | LIST OF ORGANIZATION'S CURRENT DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, TRUSTEES REGARDLESS OF COMPENSATION. STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: CLEAN WATERS PROGRAM: MUCH OF 2018 WAS SPENT ON RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND DESIGN OF A GLOBAL WATER SOLUTIONS PROGRAM, INCLUDING: - A CLEAN WATER SOLUTIONS CONSORTIUM WAS FORMED IN AUSTRALIA TO INTRODUCE CUTTING-EDGE WATER LOCATION TECHNOLOGY TO FARMERS AND COMMUNITIES SUFFERING FROM SEVERE DROUGHT CONDITIONS. WE HOSTED A 2-DAY CONFERENCE TO DETAIL A 5-YEAR PLAN FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF OUR CLEAN WATER SOLUTIONS PROGRAM, CREATING WORKING RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN OUR NON-PROFIT AND SEVERAL FOR-PROFIT ENTITIES TO FORWARD OUR CHARITABLE PURPOSES; - WE BROUGHT ON A TEAM OF 3 SCIENTISTS AND LAUNCHED A 6-MONTH TRAINING PROGRAM FOR THEM WITH ONE OF THE MOST ADVANCED GEOHYDROLOGICAL ANALYSIS EXPERTS IN THE WORLD. UPON COMPLETION, THEY WILL BEGIN WORKING TO LOCATE WATER IN ARRID AND DROUGHT-PRONE REGIONS IN DIRE NEED OF SUSTAINABLE WATER SOURCES. - DURING THIS TIME PERIOD WE DETERMINED THE MOST RELIABLE METHODS AND GEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS APPROACHES THAT CAN BE UTILIZED TO LOCATE ALTERNATIVE WATER SOURCES AND IMPLEMENT SPECIALIZED SOIL BIOLOGY ENHANCEMENT TECHNIQUES FOR REFORESTATION, AND RECREATION OF HEALTHY HABITAT. - WE COMPLETED RESEARCH PROJECTS TO SUPPORT THE PLANNING AND DESIGN OF COLLABORATIVE STRATEGIES FOR IMPLEMENTING WATER SOLUTION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE U.S., MIDDLE EAST, AFRICA, AND AUSTRALIA TO BRING WATER AND FOOD SECURITY. OIL SPILL CLEAN UPS AND ADVOCATING FOR NON-TOXIC SOLUTIONS: OUR ANALYSIS PAPER "A CALL FOR A 21ST-CENTURY SOLUTION IN OIL SPILL CLEANUP" HAS BEEN A KEY FACTOR IN OPENING DOORS TO GOVERNMENTS AND OTHER RESPONSIBLE PARTIES FOR THE FULL IMPLEMENTATION OF ENZYMATIC BIOREMEDIATION TECHNOLOGY FOR THE EFFECTIVE CLEANUP OF LARGE WATERWAYS SUCH AS THE GANGES AND THE GOMTI RIVERS, AND SEVERAL OTHER RIVERS AND LAKES IN INDIA AND NEPAL. ADDITIONALLY, LARGE-SCALE PROJECTS TO CLEAN UP HUNDREDS OF MILES OF OIL AND OTHER TOXIC POLLUTANTS-SOAKED LAND IN IRAQ ARE BEING NEGOTIATED TO BEGIN CLEANUPS IN 2019. COOPERATIVE ECOLOGY EDUCATION PROGRAM: OUR SECOND IN A SERIES OF EDUCATIONAL MANUALS ON THE SUBJECT OF COOPERATIVE ECOLOGY WAS PUBLISHED, THIS TIME WITH AN ADDITIONAL COURSE FOR TEENAGERS, AND WAS PILOTED IN CRESCENTA VALLEY HIGH SHOOL, LA CRESCENTA, CA. THE COURSE IS IN PREPARATION FOR ROLL OUT THROUGH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS AND HOME SCHOOL OUTLETS. ADDITIONALLY, PRESS RELEASES, BLOGS AND ARTICLES WERE USED TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE COOPERATIVE ECOLOGY CONCEPT UTILIZING OUR WEBSITE, SOCIAL MEDIA, ALTERNATIVE MEDIA, AND OTHER AVENUES. OUR SENIOR EXECUTIVES WERE KEYNOTE SPEAKERS AT A VARIETY OF EVENTS, SUCH AS ROTARY AND OTHER PHILANTHROPIC CLUB MEETINGS AND WEBINARS TO FORWARD THE COECO MESSAGE, RAISING AWARENESS OF HUMANITY'S VITAL PARTNERSHIP FOR SURVIVAL WITH THE NATURAL WORLD. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE ULTIMATE ADVENTURE ACADEMY, WE CONDUCTED A 2-WEEK COECO SAILING SHIP ADVENTURE FOR TEENS ON THE CARIBBEAN ISLAND OF SAN ANDREAS TO HEIGHTEN THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF THE INTERDEPENDENCE OF ALL LIFE FORMS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF THEIR DAILY CHOICES IN PROTECTING THE WORLD AROUND THEM. WE CONDUCTED A COOPERATIVE ECOLOGY SAFARI TO SOUTH AFRICA TO RAISE AWARNESS OF THE COECO CONCEPT AND TO SUPPORT THE CONSERVATION EFFORTS OF SEVERAL WILDLIFE PRESERVES THERE. RESCUE AND RELOCATION OF WILDLIFE IN INHUMANE CONDITIONS: THROUGH PUBLIC RELATIONS, PROMOTION, AND FUNDRAISING, WE CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE RESCUE AND RELOCATION PROJECTS OF LAEO'S UKRAINE CHAPTER. THIS PAST YEAR THEY RESCUED SEVERAL BEARS FOUND IN HORRIBLE CONDITIONS BY 1) BRINGING IN VETERINARIANS TO HANDLE HEALTH ISSUES, 2) REBUILDING THEIR CURRENT ENCLOSURES OR REMOVING THEM TO BETTER TEMPORARY ENCLOSURES THAT WERE FAR MORE COMFORTABLE, UNTIL 3) THEY COULD RELOCATE THEM TO SANCTUARIES IN EITHER UKRAINE OR SOUTH AFRICA WITH NATURAL HABITAT AND FAR MORE HUMANE CONDITIONS. |

| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A | WATER RESEARCH PROGRAM - MUCH OF 2017 WAS SPENT ON RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND THE DESIGNING OF A GLOBAL WATER SOLUTIONS PROGRAM, INCLUDING LEGAL RESEARCH, WITH SEVERAL COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS FORMED AND MANAGED. THE FOLLOWING PROGRESS WAS MADE: "RESEARCH PROJECT COMPLETED DETERMINING THE EXACT AND MOST RELIABLE METHODS AND GEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS APPROACHES THAT CAN BE UTILIZED TO IMPLEMENT WATER SOLUTIONS FOR REFORESTATION AND WILDLIFE CONSERVATION. LAEO HAS IDENTIFIED KEY AREAS WHERE WATER SCARCITIES ARE CREATING DANGEROUS LOSS OF HABITATS, THREATENING WILDLIFE SPECIES. "RESEARCH PROJECTS LAUNCHED TO DETERMINE VIABLE MODELS FOR IMPLEMENTING WATER SOLUTIONS TECHNOLOGIES IN THESE KEY REGIONS. COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER FOR-PROFIT AND NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS FOR IMPLEMENTING WATER SOLUTIONS WERE SET UP IN SEVERAL COUNTRIES IN PREPARATION FOR THE FULL LAUNCH OF THIS CAMPAIGN. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4B | OIL SPILL CLEAN UPS AND NON TOXIC SOLUTIONS: "WE COMPLETED A FORMAL, COST COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS BETWEEN ENZYMATIC BIOREMEDIATION OIL SPILL RESPONSE AND PUBLISHED AND DISTRIBUTED OUR FINDINGS TO OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY MEMBERS AND INDUSTRY INSURANCE COMPANIES. THIS RESULTED IN GREATER ACCEPTANCE AND ADOPTION OF MORE EFFECTIVE OIL SPILL RESPONSE TECHNOLOGY IN THE OIL SPILL RESPONSE INDUSTRY BY MARINE AND SHIPPING OPERATORS, OIL RIG AND REFINERY OPERATORS. THIS HAS RESULTED IN REPLACING HARMFUL CHEMICALS WITH NON-TOXIC OIL SPILL CLEAN UP TECHNOLOGY ON INDUSTRY SITES AND IN OIL AND GAS OPERATIONS. WE HELPED TO EXPAND ADOPTION OF NON-TOXIC SPILL CLEANUP METHODS IN SOUTH AND CENTRAL AMERICAN COUNTRIES (COLUMBIA AND PANAMA) WHERE LARGE-SCALE CLEANUP PROJECTS ARE UNDER WAY. WE ALSO EFFECTED BROADER ADOPTION OF NON-TOXIC CLEANUP IN THE U.S., NIGERIA, AND MIDDLE EASTERN AND ASIAN REGIONS BY MAJOR INDUSTRY MEMBERS. "LAEO'S SCIENCE AND TECH ADVISORY BOARD INITIATED THE ACTIONS TO BRING ABOUT A UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA FAIRBANKS AND NOAA U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCY COLLABORATION FORMED FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONDUCTING A SCIENTIFIC STUDY ON ENZYMATIC BIOREMEDIATION TECHNOLOGY. THE TWO-YEAR STUDY WAS STARTED IN 2017 AS PART OF A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF OIL SPILL CLEAN UP METHODS FOR ARCTIC SPILLS-COMPARING NON-TOXIC ENZYMATIC BIOREMEDIATION TECHNOLOGY TO TOXIC CHEMICAL DISPERSANTS. RESULT: REINFORCED CREDIBILITY AND VISIBILITY OF ENVIRONMENTALLY VIABLE AND NATURE-FRIENDLY OIL SPILL RESPONSE SOLUTIONS SUPPORTING INDUSTRY REFORMS. "LAEO COLLABORATED WITH ITS CANADIAN ALLIANCE TO PRODUCE OIL SPILL RESPONSE TECHNOLOGY ARTICLES, WHICH RESULTED IN OUR INFORMATION BEING PUBLISHED IN WORLD PIPELINE MAGAZINE AND DISTRIBUTED TO ALTERNATIVE MEDIA SOURCES AND CANADIAN OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY MEMBERS. "LAEO'S SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR ENZYMATIC BIOREMEDIATION STUDIES WAS VERY ACTIVE AS PART OF OIL SPILL RESPONSE REFORM WORK, THESE RELATIONSHIPS WERE MAINTAINED WITH SEVERAL PEER REVIEW PROJECTS AND THE PLANNING FOR A FORMAL, SCIENTIFIC BIOREMEDIATION WORKSHOP WAS COMPLETED.
