Advanced Community Planning Series #2: Post-2012 Survival Water Harvesting — Author, Brad Lancaster

This second installment in the Advanced Community Planning Series features water harvesting researcher and author Brad Lancaster.  With a singular focus on survival, Brad explains how to find water in cataclysm-induced droughts and then manage scare water resources in a post-2012 catastrophic environment. 

A proponent of a “slow it, spread it, sink it” approach to water harvesting, Brad has authored an immensely popular 2-part series:  Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands (Vol. 1) and Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands and Beyond (Vol. 2). This series is based on 8 guiding principles of water harvesting and management in severe drought conditions. 

A resident of Arizona, Brad has carefully studied the architecture introduced in the first installment in this series:  Advanced Community Planning Series #1: Highly, Survivable, Low-Tech 2012 Arcosanti Structures — Arcologist Erin Jeffries.  While Arcosanti is ideally situated as an architectural prototype site, it lacks the kinds of drought water management strategies post-2012 survival communities will require.

In this extremely valuable interview with host Marshall Masters, Brad relates these 8 guiding principles to the real life needs of 2012 survivors and how to expand on the Arcosanti model with more efficient water management techniques.

Arcologist Erin Jeffries of Arcosanti, Arizona introduces the city's novel approach to constructing dwellings and communities. One so perfectly suited to the needs of a post-2012 world, it forms the cornerstone of the Advanced Community Planning (ACP) Series by Marshall Masters. GO

Advanced Community Planning Series #3: Post-2012 High-Yield Victory Gardens — Author, John Jeavons

In a post-2012 world, food will be as scarce everywhere, just as it is now in many third world countries. Americans can barely imagine what it means to eat mud pies like Haitians do, or to simply wither away like the millions of victims of war and greed in Africa. Yet we say "there for the grace of God go I." GO

Planet X Special Report

“Chance favors the prepared mind."—Louis Pasteur

Planet X Special Report No. 1: Where is Planet X?

We often received emails from people complaining about the mockery and abuse they receive from family, friends and co-workers when discussing this topic.

Our view is that this topic should never be introduced to others, until they demonstrate a geniune interest.

Nonetheless, those with a genuine interest in the topic will feel a natural urge to share their concerns about a possible threat to themselves and those close to them. Consequently, the most common questions they ask are, "where is Planet X, and what is the most likely worst case scenario?" GO

The Big Six Man-Made Catastrophic Scenarios for 2012 and Beyond — Survival Author Matthew Stein and Jacco van der Worp MSc

As moviegoers flock to see Sony's new 2012 film, critics, debunkers and cynics are spewing forth a flood of poison pen pronouncements. 

Taken altogether, it is a bizarre twist on the Biblical story of Noah and the Flood — and with strikingly similar themes. 

For those new to the topic of 2012, the film is great entertainment, but it also drives home an ancient failing of humanity.  That the common folk are often the last to know, whether by their own choices or those made for them by wealthy and powerful elites.   Ergo, many will never ask, "where will I be in 2012?"  They'll just have enough time to ask, "My God, what's happening?"
