If you are reading this, you have probably already become concerned about future events and have begun to take responsibility for your and your family’s survival. You may be alarmed at the increasing number, variety and severity of disasters throughout the world, particularly in the United States. This is not your imagination. Things are getting more dangerous, and the infrastructure and emergency services are starting to break down. One disaster often contributes to another. Who can doubt that the immense costs of the 9/11 attacks and Hurricane Katrina contributed to the economic collapse? The shrinking economy reduces funds for infrastructure improvements, safety, emergency services and police; this then sets us up for further attacks and disaster. The eventual result of these combined and multiplying manmade and natural disasters could trigger a general world collapse sometime in the next twenty to one hundred years.
The immediate mission for the responsible citizen is to prepare to survive increasingly severe and lengthy emergencies with less and less outside help. These events will strike closer and closer to every family and economic conditions will become more and more challenging. It is, therefore, imperative that people begin an energetic and systematic program to increase their emergency preparedness and long-term self-reliance while they still have the resources and time to do so. Furthermore, the children and grandchildren of today must be reoriented from passive dependence to active self-reliance through preparedness training and the acquisition of basic survival skills.
Here are just a few of the scientifically calculated situations that are already happening today.
As the population outpaces resources, basic necessities such as water, food and fuel will become scarce. At first the famines, droughts, epidemics, wars and massacres will ravage the third-world countries and then it will spread around the world.
Increased population densities combined with economic decline will mean that floods, earthquakes and storms will cause astronomical death and destruction that will not be recoverable.
The combination of economic decline and growing populations will result in the collapse of infrastructure and public services in many (if not all) urban and suburban areas. The failure of water supplies, electrical service, sewer systems and fire and police protection will make crime, riots and epidemics more and more common.
The combination of less and less farmland and shifting climates will ultimately lead to conflicts over food and water resources that could lead to wars.
