Zombies for the Advancement of Living People is both a philosophy and a group. We have resources to help us organize and be more effective life culters. If a zombie shares Z.A.L.P.'s ideals, change your tag and get to work. For organized projects, to share inteligence, for more information, or for requests to cooperate, please see the [http://www.colglough.proboards.com/index.cgi D.S. R&D/Z.A.L.P shared forum]. We are more than happy to hear from other groups who might like to share a fluid membership with us. | Zombies for the Advancement of Living People is both a philosophy and a group.

Local life-cultists and indigenous Zambahz are the stewards of the urban environment ZALP works to conserve. They depend on the environment and the Harmanz in it for their survival. Over time, some have developed traditions and practices to sustainably manage their natural resources while others have consumed their resources with abandon. Such disregard for our shared environment places us all in danger. Today these Zambah communities face growing challenges such as outside competition for land and resources, conflict with PKers, and stagnating Harman population growth. Change must come. <br><br> | |||
At ZALP we protect Harmanz, preserve habitats and empower Zambahz to conserve resources while improving their livelihoods. We understand the close relationship between Zambahz and the environment, and incorporate elements of governance, health and education into our conservation work. Our community conservation program features an [[Z.A.L.P./Scent Maps|updatable Scentoral Map of Malton]] used by "Harman Conservationists", Zambahz, and Harmanz alike to track the migratory patterns of zombies throughout the city, improving lives/unlives by helping to conserve biodiversity. Through this ZALP initiative, Harmanz are given the opportunity to see zombie movements and plan accordingly and environmentally conscious Zambahz are given the opportunity to [[Z.A.L.P./Donors| become environmental stewards]] through their donations of time and materials.<br><br> | |||
Our vision: Build a sustainable balance between Harmanz and Zambahz by empowering local communities to enhance their opportunities and well-being, and strengthen their role as environmental decision makers. | |||

Scentoral is a term coined to account for the blending of the senses of taste and smell that allow zombies to derive such precise data from ambient aroma. Scent data is processed through the nasal cavity first and then delivered to the oral cavity where additional details are added. The process by which these details are then conveyed to the brain is related to the process by which human flesh is metabolized to heal wounds. The scent is metabolized by the lungs and digestive system and details are converted into proprioceptor signals like those used to feel the position of one’s arm without looking. The zombie then feels the death and undeath in the area as extensions of itself and, with practice, can translate it into approximate values. These values can then be uploaded through zombie friendly terminals at select sites throughout the city and compiled into a map. | Scentoral is a term coined to account for the blending of the senses of taste and smell that allow zombies to derive such precise data from ambient aroma.
