updated list I’m doing in preparing for a disaster. 1. Storing Water and buying a hand held Water Filtration System. I found a filter that will do 1 million gallon guarantee. You can drink from a mud puddle with this System. sawyer/products/type/water-filtration/ You can fit in it your hand for $24.00 2. Making an Earthquake orange tool box for things like; Wrenches to turn off gas and water. (Practices) 3. Grid down -How to Deal with Human Waste, Disposing of Garbage and any impact on sewage back flowing. backwater-valves/Backwater-Valve- 4. Canning Food for 1 year using mason jars. I’m going to use this system; https://youtube/watch?v=PrGRliC_eec 5.Put Passport and other documents in water proof bags into a fireproof box. - A binder that has physical copies of your contacts, medical information, insurance information, financial information, licenses…you know…the important stuff. 6. How to Cook food when the grid goes down. 7. Energy; All in one water proof Hand Crank/solar for Radio/Cell Phone Charger and lights. All in one 8. A good first Aid kit. I mean not the 10.00 one. My 2nd focus; 1. EMP -Buy a Faraday cage bags or DIY Faraday cage to protect necessary electronic equipment and your car. 2. Sustainable Sources of Energy -Solar panels on the roof or yard. - A wind turbine can be providing energy on raining days… - Bicycle Generator. - Wood burning Generator. 3. Communication; Ham radio, Two-way radios to my family in the area.. - When the power lines go down, radio stations stop transmitting and the internet stops working; there is one line of emergency communication that will still be alive and well. (The Ham radio). My 3nrd focus; 1. Finding the Ultimate Bug out Property, if things go crazy in the city. 2. Building a team of people to bug out with to the property. 3. With the team, begin to build on the bug out property for Short term or maybe long team. -Evacuation Planning! Mountain bike, walking or by car. - Making a 3 day bugout bag. - Communication; High end Ham radio. - Shelter- We all need shelter to survive and withstand the elements. Here are some example; -Shipping containers -Earth Ships or underground shelter -Trailer home or R.V. -Cabins or even a teepee and tents. -Security and Protection. -- Livestock; Goats, lambs, Turkey, chickens , rabbits, cows ect… What I’m looking for in a property; - Water Sources –A good reliable water source is one of the most important considerations when choosing a bug out retreat. From fresh water springs and rivers to underground well water, the need for a clean and renewable water source is the number one factor to consider when looking for survival properties. -Set up rainwater collection with barrels with Sawyer Water Filtration System. - Access to timber for firewood. - Fertile soil for planting fruit trees, nut trees and wild berries. Hopefully some will be already there. - Garden space. -Live wildlife game in the area and Fishing close by. Yes, I have been doing a lot of thought on the subject. Im sure I missed a lot, but I’m learning.
