    I have been climate crisis aware for decades but had kids a decade ago and have been raising them to survive the coming crisis and lead others in a small community. Skills/lessons I’m attempting to impart include, in no particular order:

    • A guiding sense of fairness and humility. They’re exceptional but that comes with an obligation to help others

    • Awareness of the duality of man, both danger and kindness

    • Love of nature

    • Fishing

    • Archery

    • Firearm safety/usage/maintenance

    • Small unit tactics for CQB (taught with Nerf and laser tag currently)

    • Basic first aid

    • Knowledge of innate human rights and the current threats to them

    • Growing food

    • How to cook delicious food quickly and efficiently for fuel conservation

    • Self-care, including mental health

    I don’t know exactly what the future holds, but I want them ready for an unfriendly world when they’re adults. Hopefully they have enough time to build community with like-minded people and live out their days in peace and harmony with nature.
