I'm a Brit and over here its kind of funny to see American's who Prep. Prep for alien invasion, prep for zombie outbreak, prep for Government oppression. It always seems to be slightly mad people who react this way, but just recently.. maybe the last few years.. I've followed the climate crisis in the news and tried to pick it apart.

It seems to me the fossil fuel/energy companies are gaslighting people, astroturfing just as the tobacco companies did in the past. We've had all this time (decades in fact) to transition. To adapt. Now we get this watered down deal that will see nothing really change.

So for me its time to store dry foods, toiletries, rainwater. Whatever I can afford. I will be secretly supplementing my electric with a small solar array I have bought with my overtime. Nothing massive, just 640w (two renogy panels as they have good reviews), and a small g99 inverter. The panels are hidden out back in a garden with the cable connected to grid via a long cable and into a switched inlet. I also have two friends who are doing the same as we've saved 5% of the cost buying together.

Things are already hard here. The last thing we need is for another load of panics but long term. People are already making their way here from other countries as their own are too dangerous, or their crops are failing. Imagine what it will be like when things get worse. We need to do our own thing now.
