You gotta do backflips over the particles in the upper atmosphere.

You have radiation gear in your closet?

No... but there will be some in nuclear fallout bunkers.

@Scribblehatch That's the real strat. Just live in space first.

Thus it gives us a chance to prepare.

Explore outside and get a leg up on others.

Alot of those fallout bunkers have their own supplies.

I visit the nuclear fallout shelter during 9/11.

Well what I am saying is the community in the bunker...

Can be the community that I was talking about.

Was this a hardened underground facility or a really rugged building?

I would assume it would be the same community.

I will say that's one big weakness peppers tend to have. You really shouldn't expect to just be able to hold resources on your own. But trust could be difficult.

I am not talking about hoarding resources to the point there is no room to move.

I am working off the knowledge of nuclear cleanup around nuclear reactors and how they do it.

Taking that in mind, restoring the air to somewhat functionality.

Thus giving us a chance to rebuild and create a sustainable resource of food and water.

Fair.

Then using those to trade with neighboring communities.

I've always taken the stance it's better to have a stable sedentary base.

I don't think roving is a sustainable long-term strategy.

I am going to post what I managed to so far.

Step by step guide.

Oh, one big thing I forgot. Telecoms.

Specifically simplex radio.

Of course part of the guide is raiding the local library for books on how to instructions.

People these days assume Cell phones just work. But radio comms are vital for coordination.

Thus giving a point of reference and ability to teach our children.

I know cell phones will not work.

Definitely with the radiation in the upper atmosphere.

So I figured wired communication is best.

I think you could get radios to work.

Simplex atleast.

Actually, I wonder if you could do some kind of signal bounce.

Hand cranky

Cars==alternators==generators.

Something people forget.

Though you have fuel limits to worry about.

Just ride bikes
