Contributions from individuals will always be important
to the EARTH-SHIP global warming
program, but multi-national corporations must continue
to do their part as well. Eventually there will be many
EARTH-SHIPs. Each of the
future Earth Ship will be built new from the keel up and
for this reason a great deal of money and support will be
required. Earth Ship Limited, the owner of the first EARTH-SHIP(s),
has developed an unprecedented business opportunity for
corporations to participate in this unique venture.
Corporations choosing to invest in the EARTH-SHIP(s)
stop adverse climate change program can enjoy a highly leveraged
business expense, donate their investment to a not-for-profit
organization but maintain an unprecedented access to the
asset without violating the Partial Interest Rule.
This opportunity should allow corporations the added financial incentive they are looking for in order to help them to be a part of a program that will do good for humanity, and look good to their constituents. Each ship, and each corporation will be a unique situation. Further discussion will be needed and a tax opinion letter is available.
A number of corporations have already taken an interest in this unusual and very profitable opportunity, including Time Warner, Swiss Re, Wachovia, Hewlett Packard and others. Complete documentation including a Tax Opinion Letter is available.
The EARTH-SHIP will always be a global grassroots people-to-people program but we need and welcome the involvement of US corporations. If you or your company is interested in knowing more about this investment opportunity please contact sponsorship@earth-ship.org.
Depending on your level of contribution you can be involved
with the EARTH-SHIP global
warming program in three ways.
In the mean time, make your dollars count. One hundred
percent (100%) of every dollar you give to the EARTH-SHIP
program, and 100% of all profit from the sale of goods in
the EARTH-SHIP's store,
will go toward the fight to reduce Kyoto Protocol and global
warming. No contribution is too small. Please do your part
to help stop global warming.
Depending on the size of your contribution you will be allowed to join this effort on one of three different levels.
