If the Zombie Apocalypse started tomorrow, would you be ready? A few simple suggestions:

  • Buy food in bulk. It's cheaper, you have far better options than the supermarket, and it keeps you stocked up with staple goods if you need them.
  • Have alternative heat sources - solar, electric, gas, wood - could you cook a meal or heat your house if the utilities died? All else fails, do you have a camp-stove and fuel?
  • Do you have the tools on hand to make basic repairs if you need them? A hammer, screwdriver, wrench, and a bunch of glue, tape and fastners?

These will go just as far toward dealing with simple every-day problems like the cost of food or a furnace outage. We can't prepare for every eventuality, but a little bit of common sense goes a long way.

When the zombies do come, stay calm. Connect with your neighbours to share food and resources. And for God's sake, aim for the head.

"Today, the notion of progress in a single line without goal or limit seems perhaps the most parochial notion of a very parochial century." — Lewis Mumford
