The New Homefront

In a recent blog post, John Michael Greer points out that we in America are experiencing potentially cataclysmic changes in our society. He writes:

"The price of oil is bouncing along above $80 a barrel, the International Energy Agency has now admitted that peak oil happened in 2006, the United States is openly covering its debts by means of the printing press, and agricultural commodity prices have jolted upwards to unprecedented levels under the paired pressures of an increasingly unstable climate and a disintegrating global economic system...."

Mr. Greer goes on to say that a prediction of our current situation even a few years ago would have been met with jeers, and that despite seeing it happen NOW we are blindly going about the trivia of the holiday season.

How bad does it have to get before we act?

The New Homefront blog aims to be a resource for those who recognize the importance of being as prepared as possible for the unimaginable events to come. Just as civilians shouldered responsibility for helping the war effort in the 1940s, all of us today must step up and act quickly and surely to protect ourselves and our world.

I hope that you who are reading this will be inspired to engage in preparation and will share your own knowledge with others through the comments section.

Together we are strong.
