I’m echoing what I heard at a meeting yesterday and it is confirming a gut-feeling I have been feeling. I think people are starting to realize this involuntarily, especially this community where I have been seeing lots of back-to-basics, DIY, handmade stuff. Plus, I’ve become aware of a futures report that predicts in the next decade that a large segment of the population might be reduced to foraging for food and shelter.
Discussion
The foraging piece seemed really strange to me. 🇨🇦
Yeah, me too.
Here is the report

Can’t imagine….
Interesting thoughts! I have had hints of the “gut-feeling” myself. I have started a personal project where I am putting together an emergency preparedness stockpile. While I have the traditional natural disaster scenario in the forefront, I am also reminded of the Covid crisis and how my local community reacted to stockpiling. Bit of a shit show really. I am using 20lt buckets with lids as the building blocks. I have a family of 5 to organise for. I have used ChatGPT to brainstorm and plan. Great experience so far.
