I have water and the vege garden soil is getting better each day. Grow your own and save a bloody fortune.

The truth is that doing many of the things you can do to prepare for disaster is smart in terms if health, finance, and the environment as well. I love living in the city because it means I don't have to have a car, but I wish I had a garden.

 BUSKIRK, N.Y. (AP) — A few years ago, Kathleen Breault was just
another suburban grandma, driving countless hours every week, stopping
for lunch at McDonald's, buying clothes at the mall, watching TV in the
evenings.
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.livescience.com/technology/080525-ap-survivalists.html"><P>
That was before Breault heard an author talk about the bleak future
of the world's oil supply. Now, she's preparing for the world as we
know it to disappear.
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.livescience.com/technology/080525-ap-survivalists.html"><P>
Breault cut her driving time in half. She switched to a diet of
locally grown foods near her upstate New York home and lost 70 pounds.
She sliced up her credit cards, banished her television and swore off
plane travel. She began relying on a wood-burning stove.

Convinced the planet's <A href="http://www.livescience.com/environment/070417_oil_peak.html">oil supply is dwindling</A>
and the world's economies are heading for a crash, some people around
the country are moving onto homesteads, learning to live off their
land, conserving fuel and, in some cases, stocking up on guns they
expect to use to defend themselves and their supplies from desperate
crowds of people who didn't prepare.
