THE GEOCOSMO EARTHQUAKE FORECAST SYSTEM WILL FORECAST THE LIKELIHOOD OF MAJOR EARTHQUAKES
WITH 2 -3 DAYS OF LEAD TIME.
A forecast could save thousands of lives and billions of dollars.
We are gathering an alliance of scientists, corporations, aid organizations, governments, and concerned citizens who will support the development of GeoCosmo, the
global earthquake forecast system.

EARTHQUAKES ARE THE MOST DEADLY OF ALL NATURAL DISASTERS...AND DEVASTATINGLY COSTLY

VS.
The existing “Early Warning System” is nothing more than an
“announcing system” for earthquakes that are already underway
0 - 90 SECONDS
The GeoCosmo System gives us the time we need to
protect people and property
2-3 DAYS
OUR METHOD PROVIDES ADVANCED WARNING THAT ISNOT AVAILABLE THROUGH EXISTING TECHNIQUES

HOW GeoCosmo WORKS
Deep in the earth as rocks are squeezed, they produce electricity
![Page 8: GeoCosmo Earthquake Forecasting](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042723/58ee68b91a28abea248b4633/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Infrared Anomalies
Radio Noise
Air Ionization
AS THE ELECTRICITY TRAVELS, IT CREATES MEASURABLE EFFECTS
Magnetic field anomalies
ULF emissions
Unipolar pulses
Ground potentials
Ozone Production
Ionospheric Perturbations

EACH EFFECT CAN BE DETECTED BYSATELLITES AND GROUND STATIONS

All the signals are weighted, evaluated and combined to create a forecast for the next earthquake.
With a 2-3 day warning, thousands of lives and billions of dollars could be saved.

NASA has already granted Dr. Freund over $1,000,000 to support research on earthquake signals. This research is only
the beginning of GeoCosmo.
