      Please take a few minutes to read the government grants regarding climate change and then you will see why scientists are paid to promote climate change. There's multiple sites, scientists and respected professionals which have been whistleblowers about NOAA and climate paid scientists manipulating data.

      Xactly well said. I work on lab equipment at several hospitals. And while networking tools have massively increased the speed and volume of patient testing, hospitals need to be prepared for these networks to go down. In fact a recent customer of mine switched to updated automation and now some employees are standing around a bit with less to do. I said 'trust me you'll be glad you have them when the instrumentation goes down. Your employees are your insurance policy.'

      I worked in a hospital for over 15 years. The use of paper while problematic and more expensive should be tested for a full day annually. If I were in charge I would mandate it. Then the process of going from paper back to electronic would also be tested. That testing also trains. And helps get the process documented properly. I wish common sense was common.

    Inflation concerns me, as I live on a fixed income. I have amped up my garden activities, and foraging knowledge in hopes to offset higher food prices, and to reduce trips to the store.
    I have a backyard flock; and continue the precautions I began earlier with your valuable advice. I have added turkeys this year, to the chickens and geese I already have. I live under a major migratory route, so I am always vigilant towards sick and dead birds, and bird droppings.
    The ensuing climate problems are most concerning to me. After the last tornado struck my homestead in 2021, I adjusted my bug out bag to contain more tools to assist me in self rescue, and updated my bug out plans accordingly. My risk assessment spreadsheet fluctuates back and forth between flood, tornado (severe weather event), and extreme blizzard. I now have 3 different bug out bags, one for each type of event. What used to be isolated events, which came with seasons are now scrambled. We get floods in the middle of winter when it used to be all frozen. We got a drought last year, with forest fires, during April, our rainier month. Tornadoes used to be just be occasional, during summer; now we've had them in November, March, April, and now May.
    I need 3 bags to prep for the overlapping scramble.

Self, pets and adult child and family have been provided for. My focus now is on increased fitness, and honing new skills. Both my parents lived through two World Wars in the UK.. Most of our food came from a small Victory Garden, sometimes we rode our bikes to pick blackberries. We never lacked for anything. Frugality was a way of life, and has served me well my entire life, and will continue to do so..

      They're classified as G4. For reference, the Carrington Event was G5. You can research online. Just look up CME today or solar storm activity... It could be as simple as pretty lights in the sky for those who live in he more northern part of the US & Canada. Or there could be disruption to phone service, radio wave interruption, possibly power outages to grid down anywhere from small areas up to large areas.
      There is a small chance it could blow the grid in entire countries but they're saying that's unlikely. It all depends on varying factors. The bizarre thing is that we're getting 5 major CMEs between now & Sunday. If you have a Faraday cage, put your electronics & small power banks in it to protect them now. If you have a generator & you've planned ahead & have a Faraday cage for it, make sure it's secure.
      All we can do is what we're doing- stay vigilant & plan accordingly. Unfortunately, they only get a day or two max as warning.

    My biggest advice to prefers don't panic live. Your life is normal but keep one ear to the ground at all times pay attention to your surroundings and I don't mean you're immediate surroundings. Your surroundings in general because they'll be red flags. Tell tell signs if things are changing this way. You can get ahead of the game to prep or disappear or leave Dodge before anyone else realizes what's happened? So keep your ears to the ground guys pay attention. Keep your gas tank full at all times and be ready always and take nothing for granted. Enjoy your life but take nothing for granted.

I just wanted to add that I planted my medicinal herb garden at my bug-out location 2 years ago - plantain, yarrow, mullein, stinging nettle, chamomile, wild Lettuce, plus others. And added a perennial edible garden ( protected from creatures). I also added many items with their own solar chargers that can be used on the go - light/ fan combo, solar phone charger & emergency radio/light/ charger which is crank-solar & USB. That makes 3+ less things to have to worry about!!! Thanks for all you do for our prepping community.

    Inflation has affected all of us. As a child I saw my relatives repurposing and stretching things. I saw them saying no to things they wanted to do because of the budget. They had the money some of the time but they knew what else they would need money for during the month and they knew the importance of saving money for emergencies and for short and longer term goals. We've felt inflation but not as much as some people because we know how to budget and stretch things. We're also willing to make adjustments to our lifestyle so we don't feel inflation as much.

    Thank you, Chris, I remember the economy, and stagflation in the 1970's. At that time I bought a lot of "things" because the prices were going up so fast. I bought things that were valuable for saving money, DIY stuff, and side hustles. Those items are still valuable and useful to me today. Your channel helps me with the prepper side. Maybe you could add a few videos about saving money, DIY stuff, and side hustles as well.
