in my experience, these guys need to start attending some of the professoinal expos, such as the SPE (Society of Professoinal Engineers), ASSE (American Society of Safety Engineers), ACGIH (American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists) and others, and start developing papers from experts in the fields (Environmental Remediation, Environmental Management and such) and get the experts to endorse this line. Once this happens, especially in the Oil & Gas Exploration & Production and Development, the World Bank would be next to endorse this line and the outcome would be HUGE!
I can say without a single doubt that if Jared and his people take this line of approach, they'd have a huge win on an international level.
Many of the world's largest oilspills have already happened and have happened on land. Its only the one's in water you hear most about. If they started to clean up some of these spills, where governmental money's used in the process, it would have a PhD group studying it. Get tue USACE (US Army Corps of Engineers) involved and introduced to this product. They'd have a mandate to use it....then, EESO would also be allowed to send consultants (that would be direct billed at enormous rates) to assist. You have no idea how much money this brings to the table (I've done these type cleanups, the costs are in the $$$B's).
Anyway, it takes leadership to do this. Jared needs to start putting "think tanks" together and address marketing ideas. It appears to me he needs to wake up to the 21st Century and use Bill Gates style of leadership and provide incentives to his organization to "get the product on the market" and "out of R & D."
An old mentor of mine once said "the real study is on the ground, with the product (or idea) in use!" I live by that today. "Dont show me you BS test results under controlled conditions, show me that it works right here and right now!"
