The Arlington Institute (aka "TAI") is a 501(c)(3) non-profit think tank specializing in predictive modeling of future events, that is, futures studies. Founded in 1989 by John L. Petersen in Arlington, Virginia, TAI (TAI) is a futurist think tank dedicated to facilitating a prosperous global transition. TAI believes society, science, ecology, and commerce are converging and that the issues that we are now confronting are a direct product of how we live and think. As transition pioneers, TAI hopes to discover the early indicators of transition and provide solutions. The Arlington Institute is currently building an interactive web portal called The World's Biggest Problems. This site will allow experts and amateurs alike to collaborate on finding solutions to problems such as economic crisis, species extinction, peak oil, climate change, and water scarcity. TAI also has plans to build a web portal called WHETHEReport that collects dreams and intuitions in order to scan them and search for patterns.
