News: Back to Mutually Assured Survival Home Page I've added a new board, "Off the grid".

Sanctuaries The suburbs will break down due to fuel costs. The cities are barely functional. Infrastructure in deep rural areas too tenuous. Don't make a refugee of yourself; plan where you will take your stand. |

Self-defense Self-defense means that you take personal responsibility for protecting the lives and property that you care about from unprovoked attack. The "self" part doesn't imply that you only defend yourself, it means you do it yourself. |

Aquaculture and Aquaponics Aquaculture generally refers to raising your own fish--but some vegetables are aquatic and could conceivably share pond-space. You can pump the dirty water into a greenhouse to feed tomatoes, cucumbers, and melons--sort of an organic version of hydroponics. |
