"What shall we prepare for such emergencies?"
"Where can we get those supplies from?"
"How can we protect our homes and our families if violence increases?"
"What if computers are down and we cannot use our credit cards? Shall we keep cash or barter items?"
"What do we need if we have to live outdoors for some time?"
"If the telephone system goes out how can we communicate?"
"What equipment and supplies should we get right now, if they are still available?"
"If we buy online, what web stores are reputable and what web stores are better to avoid?"

How can i survive 2012 - food crisis
It is no secret that there is a serious impending food crises. Asia and China are copying the Western and America's love of meat eating. Sadly, meat is on a very short scale on a global supply and the current consumption is is simply not sustainable. In any case, the workers are not going to produce food for you and your family when they aren't getting paid and when they can't feed themselves. To avert this there are a number of things you can do. First, stock up on non-perishable foods such as tinned food, porridge and pasta and put it in a store, as much as you can and are willing to afford. Inflation is going to sky rocket in 2012 and you are much better off buying early while it's cheap and you have the money. Also, you should learn to plant your own food. If you have a small garden or lawn out front or back it is quite easy to plant a few vegtables. Speaking from experience it is quite easy to build a biodome which are very sturdy, capable of withstanding storms and earthquakes and are quite inexpensive. Being able to hunt is a good attribute if things get really lean. Food is of course key of you want to survive 2012.Look around you. Read the headlines. See the largest factories of food, potassium iodide, and other emergency product manufacturers literally closing their online stores and putting up signs like those on Mountain House's Official Website and Thyrosafe's Factory Webpage that explain, due to overwhelming demand, they are shutting down sales for the time being and hope to reopen someday.
So what does all of this mean?
It means that time is short.
For years, many "doom and gloomers" have been yelling and screaming that a food crisis is coming.
Well, up to this point there hasn't been much to get alarmed about. Food prices have started to rise, but the truth is that our stores are still packed to the rafters will gigantic amounts of relatively cheap food.
However, you would have to be an idiot not to see the warning signs. Just look at what happened in Japan after March 11th. Store shelves were cleared out almost instantly.
It isn't going to happen today, and it probably isn't going to happen tomorrow, but at some point a major league food crisis is going to strike.
How can i survive 2012: Defense
Imagine the worse case scenario. There is no food, you are the only person in the community who had the foresight to prepare. You have adequate food, sanitation, supplies, gold and silver coins, fuel for transport, a backup generator and chemicals. Do you expect the now jobless, hungry, cold, homeless members of the community to clap you on the back and say well done? More likely would be a club to the head and a tearless farewell. If you don't protect your self you will simply will not be able to survive 2012. All your previous foresight will be count for nothing if you can't protect it. You don't have ten years to master tae kwon do so a gun is the only option, and will serve as a useful deterrent, the best of weapons. Also lock your doors and make sure your home is safe and secure and keep quite on what you have. While it is best to form a tight knit group of people you trust poverty and desperation can change people in significant ways. On top of this people are naturally greedy, jealous and have a major sense of entitlement. Lock n load. How can i survive 2012: survival supplies and preparation
Now, there is no scientific evidence to say that solar flares or a super volcano will erupt in 2012. However, it can't be argued that something big is set to happen in 2012. Whether it is war, disease, econonomic colapse or something else, there are a number of things you should do and a number of survival supplies you should have in store, just in case. Even if nothing happens in 2012 whats to say disaster won't strike in 2013,2015 or 2017? An essential fall back would obviously be a bunker or even a bomb shelter, but this is unrealistic to many who will simply board up their house. Supplies include ample food, seeds, potassium iodine, a gun for pretection, a gas mask( rediation suit if possible), water filtration system( not half as sophisticated as it souns), radio communication system, knife, a medical kit,gold( as much as money will allow) batteries and more. These are the essentials but you also need to have survival skills such as how to build fires in the snow without matches or fuel, the best places to find underground reserves of water, how to biuld a hand powered electrical generator. These cover the essentials and there is much more needed but you have to recognies that these are essential. A survival mindset is also needed to pull through 2012 but of all things preparation is essential. At the very least have some gold coins, a non perishable food supply and a water filtration system. Remember even if nothing happens in 2012 it is important to have some sort of fall back plan,just in case.There are hundereds of reason top prepare for 2012. there is much more to be concerned about than just a prediction of the world coming to an end.I am talking about REAL disasters of all different types that we can protect ourselves from if properly prepared.

- Main reason behind the increase of disasters is the bad Karma of people. So, acquiring good karma also very important. Material preparation itself is not enough. Spreading Metta is the surest way to survive terribly catastrophic period which comes from 2012 -2014. Unfortunately many people become suicidal, go on denial etc. Those who maintain human dignity will be protected by Dhamma, that is a norm of the world.
LET US BE SURVIVORS AND NOT VICTIMS
In order to minimize ill-effects of unprecedented type of disasters which will occur in 2012 and beyond, kindly lead your life:
• Observing the five precepts (One who lives with Dhamma is protected by Dhamma)
• The tendency during this adverse period is such that, if you do not have a problem of your own, you will be entangled with a problem of someone else; so, be mindful of this and live in peace, minimizing chances of such trouble.
• On the first Sunday of every month, all should get together and perform a special Buddha pooja, offering nine pieces of each item, reflecting on nine great qualities of Buddha.
• Whenever possible, acquire merit through cleaning and tidying up the premises of a holy place such as a temple including altars and other places where offerings are placed, such as stands for incense sticks, oil lamps, wash basins, etc.
• Offer medicines and beverages reputed to be coolants of the body (e.g. fresh water, orange juice, king coconut, etc. ( Because the bad kamma will mainly threaten us in the form of fire and heat, we can suppress this effect by offering coolants )
• Always try to maintain tranquility of your mind, especially while performing meritorious acts.
• Make a strong determination to keep your mind from anger, ill will and hatred. This will not be as easy as before, due to changes of the universe that affect our emotions.
• Those who drive motor vehicles should take special care to maintain peace of mind while going out from home and while returning.
• Minimize selfishness and think of the well-being of others as well. Follow 'Live and let live' policy.
• Do not be swayed by favoritism and prejudice that cause suffering to others.
• Refrain from willful damage to plants and trees, as environment provides us the best natural protection. Always live in harmony with nature.
• To prevent outbreaks of infectious diseases, keep your home and garden as clean as possible.
• As a means of controlling emotions such as lust and anger, avoid wearing garments of bright red color. (Psychological researches have bared the links between emotions and colors- Colour therapy.)
• Get your house painted in light sober colors that sooth your mind.
• Apply light yellow or a similar shade to your bedrooms.
• Grow plants bearing yellow flowers in front of your home and let yellow flowers greet you and visitors at the entrance of your house.
• Grow fruits, vegetables and other plants of nutritional value as much as possible in your garden.
May your lives be protected!

- Well yes, the reality is that someday the earth will not exist as it is...but then I'm a Christian and have a strong Faith in God, and only He knows when the end comes. As far as surviving, why would anyone want to. I'm ready for the end and it doesn't scare me one bit. So live life in the moment of everyday, make it count...because it's a gift.
