In our commitment to provide the truth without prejudice, we've found some great human beings who have agreed to become involved with us because they care deeply about the world, humanity, the environment and its many inhabitants. Some are generals; some are admirals; some are members of tribal councils; some are internationally renowned experts within their fields; some are professors from major learning institutions; some are former presidential advisors; some are current federal executives; some are well-respected celebrities; and many are everday people with no claim to fame - just a conviction of the heart and a driving moral imperative to be involved because "it's the right thing to do."
