If you haven’t stored food and water for an emergency or disaster, this item could be a life saver for you and your family.

Is your reason or excuse for not being prepared the same one used by over 300 million Americans? The two most claimed excuses are procrastination and finances, then there are those who have their heads in the sand or cyber clouds. Oh, I almost forgot about the 60+% who really believe there’s no reason to prepare, period. Disasters? Those things happen anywhere but here in my backyard and besides, I’ll worry when it does.

If you are in the “not likely to happen” camp, you must be or were living indoors with no connection to the outside world. It is no longer a question of what the disaster will be, but of when it will happen. As I write this article, Hurricane Harvey is battering South Texas, and many coastal residents interviewed by reporters expressed doubts about the severity of the storm and the urgency expressed by the media regarding immediate coastal evacuation. If my memory serves me correctly, it is the same scenario regarding the skeptics of the Katrina forecast, resulting in 1,800 deaths.

Most Americans are unaware of the plethora of pending disasters that are unrelated to predictable weather conditions, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, rain and snow storms, floods, and even droughts can be forecast. Recently, geologists are reporting seismic activity across the country with tremors recorded on all major faults. There are more than 400 tremors recorded daily in an area of ​​400 square feet. Mile area of ​​one of the largest dormant volcanoes in the world, Yellowstone National Park. Now, not so dormant according to volcanologists. Most of this information is hidden or suppressed to avoid a great panic in the affected regions. However, as the fact that Mount Rainer is also active and swollen just like Mount St. Helen was before it erupted, experts say it will be five times worse due to lava plug slowing down a possible early eruption. National Geographic has produced a video showing the potential destruction of such an event and a similar documentary on the potential destruction of Yellowstone’s supervolcano.

Much has been made in the past about the San Andreas Fault as a major threat to millions of Californians. However, a discovery has taken precedence. The New Madrid fault is not new to geologists who have studied this area around the Mississippi and Ohio rivers for decades. Recently, unprecedented activity has aroused such concern that its destructive potential could be ten times worse than the San Andreas fault. Based on the geologic predictions, the US Navy has produced new US Water Navigation Maps that predict the resulting mathematics representing a resulting shipping route from the Gulf of Mexico to Lake Michigan following the current course of the Mississippi and Ohio rivers.

Why can’t these findings and predictions be shared with the media? One of the main reasons is its intrinsic irresponsibility, hype, drama, and exaggeration of pending events. What would be the results of a great panic of a vast sector of the population? If the results were large migrations out of an affected area, where would they go, or more exactly, where might they go?

Another natural disaster that has the potential to eradicate over two-thirds of the population of this country is an EMP (electromagnetic pulse) from a solar flare or neutron bomb detonated 30-40 miles over the US coast. east or west. Most Americans have no idea what an EMP is until you shut down the grid, and they are in the dark for months or even years. An EMP attack also disables anything with electronic circuitry such as cell phones, computers, cars, planes, trains, ships, etc. Welcome back to the horse and buggy era.

What I have given as examples up to this point is enough to end civilization as we know it, and yet I have not talked about the impending collapse of our dollar and our economy, civil war, or World War III, a great pandemic or a terrorist attack.

How many more possibilities do I need to mention before I sound like a doomsday win or Fear Porn Vendor or Monger? Oh well, pick just one! Then ask yourself this simple question: “Do I have enough food to last me at least a month?” Do you think there will be any food left in the grocery store after a day after a major disaster? If it’s a prolonged disaster, will you survive two or three months? What about protecting what you have from looters and those who wish to do great physical damage to get what you have? How long will the food you now have in your cupboards last? Water? What happens when the water stops flowing from the faucets? Three to 4 days without water, no more!

If it were possible to know that you only have 1-2 weeks to collect enough food for three years, do you have the means or the knowledge to know how to do it? Well, that is exactly why I am writing this article, to tell you how to achieve it.

For just $109.00 and a seven gallon bucket with a tight, airtight lid, you can have enough healthy food that will store easily for 15 to 20 years and provides two generous meals per day ($0.14 per meal) 50 pounds of long grain rice and 45 pounds of pinto beans. (From Costco or another warehouse store or food club). Now all you need are pots and a camping wood stove or Solar Sun oven and utensils. Last but not least, either water or a device that will purify polluted water.

So you don’t go crazy eating beans and rice, stock up on a wide variety of spices and cans of tuna, chicken, beef, Spam, etc. to add more protein and variety to bean and rice meals.
