If you knew it was coming...
...how would you prepare?
Would you hope to travel somewhere or shelter in place?
Most sustainable food source?
Most effective travel vehicle?
It always struck me as odd that no one had a mushroom farm going. But I guess if you're moving around all the time, you couldn't do that.
As for vehicle, everything seemed in pretty bad shape. You can't have a horse, because you have to feed it. I don't know how long petrol lasts, but I think it has a "best before" date. What we're the cannibals using to get around with? I'd probably avoid big roads, in any case.
It's a tough one, because things looked pretty bleak.
Why mushrooms? They seem too low in fat and calories to be very sustaining. Wrong?
Petrol can last a long time with stabilizer. But it's not sustainable. Maybe something the size of a golf cart where you charge a battery with pedal power? Bullet-proof, with cappable holes to shoot through?
Mushrooms don't need that much light to grow and they like humidity, and the world seemed pretty dark and wet. That's the only reason I thought of that. In any case, you need to figure out how to grow food, because cans would only last you so long. But you either need natural light or power for grow lamps and such. But when you have cannibals on you heels, you can't really settle down and start a garden.
