  • From 2022, Jon Wertheim's report on "preppers" who are gearing up for extreme catastrophes. From 2008, Scott Pelley's visit to the "doomsday vault" inside a mountain near the North Pole, built to warehouse backup copies of all the world's crops. From 2023, Pelley's interviews with scientists who say the planet is in the midst of a sixth mass extinction with Earth's wildlife running out of places to live. And also from 2023, Bill Whitaker's story on virus hunters who are searching for new pathogens to help prevent another pandemic.

    I’m not a prepper, but my husband and I were both in the military. Because we moved every 2-3 years, we had our “red folder” (a zippered binder) that had passports, marriage/birth certificates, car/house titles, ssn cards, insurance cards, etc. We put all our photos on an external hard drive, and it was always in the same place everywhere we moved. A fireproof box in our bedroom closet. It was like that for the 26 years in, and we still do it today.

    I grew up on a 200 acre farm that my grandpa did the same thing. He always said don’t buy bio engineered seeds. Keep reusing the seeds. We have here for corn so you beans, oats, wheat, alfalfa etc… dry them, and store them till next spring. Most farmers don’t do that now. Grandpa got by with a a team of four horses at first, then bought a 1956 Farmall H and a two bottom plow., 8 foot desk, etc. to go along with it. I remember as a kid instead of spring chemicals on the corn, we fitted the cultivator attachments on the H and I was able to cultivate four rows at a time sometimes six with the extensions. Grandpa never borrowed from the bank to do farming. He used what he had paid cash for his equipment, and always had seed available the next spring to plant. Tons of farmers had to go to the bank to borrow money to put their crops in the spring. On top of chemicals and fertilizers.

      Virtually all corn today is hybrid, means it's not interesting to reuse the seeds because you lose the benefits. Farmers buy hybrid and bioengineered seeds for the beneficial traits they have, like better yield and resistance to pests and diseases. They're not idiots. It's not a black and white issue.

    Up until the late 1970’s, most people living in Portugal were “preppers.” They were peasant farmers, who grew their own food and most had no electricity or running water. Most didn’t have their own cars. They could survive for years without relying on supermarkets or utilities that were only sporadically provided and unequally-distributed by governments. I lived this life as a child. It only took one generation and moving into the E.U. (which had a vested interest in destroying traditional peasant agriculture, in order to open up new markets for its multinationals) to make the average citizen in this country completely dependent for their survival on the capitalist and industrialized system.

      In 2005 I was in the Indiana National Guard. The next day almost my entire company showed up prepared to go help. It took us a day to muster. Another two days to travel the 12 hours from Indianapolis to Biloxi, Mississippi.
      Half of our Battalion was already 16:06 deployed to Iraq. We had a 48 vehicle convoy most of the vehicles were over 20 years old. We left several vehicles on the road on the way down there. Once we got closer. We met up with a Chainsaw Church Group. Church folks clearing the roads of downed trees and debris with chainsaws so help could get through.
      We set up a base at a recreation area/park and set up a refugee camp with a hospital and food bank .
      From the second day through the first month we were visably armed with M16 assault rifles (empty mag in, mag w/ live rounds in pocket just in case).
      Lots of the refugees were scared and had trauma some of them attacked us and each other the first few days. A lot of the first few days were spent trying to avoid riots. Being armed helped keep things calmer and safer. You have to understand there were real criminals running about hurting people too. Prisoners had to be released or they would drown in a cell.
      But most people are good and as a collective people we got it together. It wasn't perfect. But we survived. Hopefully we learned a lot along the way.

    When my parents were 77, they lived out on a peninnsula on the coast of Maine (beautiful spot.) They had big snow storms that winter and the power and phones went out for 2 weeks after one such storm. When they finally got phone connection, I called and asked if they were OK. Mom said, "Oh yeah! Dad's got wth wood-stove keeping us warm and I just made porkchops, broccoli and potatoes on the stove for dinner." Snow-bound but A-OK!

    I was with DOD (Army) through the 70's ... during that time, while I was there, we shut down several "NIKE HERCULES" missile sites in Michigan. Most had been build 20 years before in the 1950's. Auburn Heights (later Auburn Hills) became a community college, Farmington Hills Campus, also in Oakland county was an old site.
    I handled two other shut downs (I was a procurement officer). All but one of the places saved the bunkers. I asked them what they wanted to keep and what they wanted to return back to the "woods or fields" that had been there before. Of course we removed the launchers, electronics ... the saved bunkers had elevators that could handle even pickup trucks. They used them for storage of roads and grounds equipment, clever... I have to admit we used to practice going into our bunker at Mt.Clemens ... and to be honest, I went inside once. I'd rather die standing outside , as we were a target ... than come out to a destroyed world with my wife and kids gone ... to each his own.

    They say the human population is too large which is causing plants and animals to lose their homes and potentially become extinct and the high numbers cause humans to become homeless and/or starve.
    IMHO,
    I don’t think the problem is the human population being too high, but more like things are purposefully mismanaged to allow these negatives as a means of managing the populous, as far as civility is concerned but also numbers. There are so many things that could be changed to stop a lot of the issues existing. If need be, build viable LONG LASTING apartment buildings where every family/adult person gets a home and/or they move people away from big cities decreasing them and building communities and within each community grow enough fruits and veggies for the population and some for trade maybe for stuff that cannot be grown locally. Farm chickens, goats, cattle, etc., in smaller amounts than the corporations do and then if there is sea fishing then smaller quantities need to be gathered to allow recovery and to prevent waste!! And only make things that are needed, and only for the numbers existing so there isn't an overkill in production that will never be bought. By making, catching, growing, only what is needed with 7 years of everything stored in the event of some catastrophe. Then eat from the oldest packaged food, 7 years and eat on that with current year’s harvest being packaged and put in the back

    Y’all can talk about seeds. Which is great and I’m glad you brought up the idea of family planting through generations. But when Monsanto started bioengineering plant seeds, they wouldn’t let you keep the seed and replant your fields the next spring, because they said it was their freaking property. Case in point the guy out west, I can’t remember the state and the guys name, but I specifically remember he was drying with special equipment. His soybean seeds storing them until next spring to reuse. Local farmers chimed in and said let’s all do this together so he was drawing seeds they had brought to him for them to reuse. Monsanto and they’re Blackwater hired assassins stepped in and threatened him with lawsuits, and the contractors showed up at his place and other places after they got his list of customers and threaten them physically with harm. Community was devastated because of Monsanto and bio engineering seeds.

Most don't have the mental mindset to withstand the loss of everything including family, friends, jobs, goals, pleasant amenities and entertainments, days off, phones, tv, music, and living hand to mouth defending everything with your life. Nope, most will not make it. Most won't even want to after reality sets in. Bunkers are great to withstand an immediate short term event. After that, the young, the strong, the healthy and unfortunately probably the ruthless will survive.

      If you don't have hope for the future there's no use preparing for it. Jesus Christ is our only hope. Our Living hope. Our blessed hope. No religion needed. Just faith, faith plus nothing.
      Ephesians 2:8-9
      For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

    While the concept of a global seed vault is commendable, I have a practical concern: In the event of a catastrophic global disaster such as a nuclear war or asteroid impact, how would survivors feasibly access and transport these seeds from such a remote location? What mechanisms, if any, are in place to ensure the distribution of these vital resources in a post-apocalyptic scenario?

      ​@@MF-kr4hf"I appreciate your perspective, but I remain skeptical about the feasibility of such a plan. Given the devastating nature of a truly apocalyptic event, it seems highly optimistic to assume that there would be a functional system in place to retrieve and distribute these seeds. The road to rebuilding civilization would likely be long and arduous, potentially spanning generations. By the time humanity regains the technological and logistical capabilities necessary to access such a remote facility, there's a significant risk that knowledge of its existence or location might be lost.

      That said, I sincerely hope my reservations are unfounded. The preservation of biodiversity is undoubtedly crucial for our species' long-term survival. Perhaps there are contingencies in place that address these concerns, even if they're not public knowledge. It's a complex issue that warrants careful consideration

      The seeds aren't meant to sustain (us) in this lifetime. They're being stored and vaulted for the ecology of the new Earth once it reemerges from its next cataclysmic apocalyptic event. In other words it's a time capsule meant to be discovered by Earth's future civilizations and/or visitors.
