#prepper #election #climate

in this video we’re going to discuss the three important ways the world is changing Forever on a massive tectonic sort of level so you as a prepper can stay ahead of it now the annual event has been dominated by China and Russia as they seek to shape Regional developments since moscow’s invasion of Ukraine India Pakistan Iran and other Central Asian countries are also members of the group uh however to uh you know Jokes Aside turkey has of course very serious interests in Central Asia and it’s natural that when Central Asia is discussed turkey wants to be at the or near the table um we also know that erdogan and Putin will meet uh to talk about Syria and uh uh Ukraine morning news now emergency in the Caribbean this morning several people are dead and entire neighborhoods devast stated by Hurricane Barrel under our system of government the executive branch is subject to the law subject to the court system the once theoretical alliances that we worried about a few years ago they’re beginning to form out of the conopy and threatened to bring a whole new mood music over the top of the geopolitics moving forward is this the beginning of the end for Western hegemony and the stability that it once brought also we’re going to look at some lessons that we need to glean from another record that was just broken and what lies ahead for the rest of this summer and finally we have to talk about what’s happening in America because you have to prepare for what it will bring to your doorstep I’ll also have another giveaway in this video and announce the winner of our last giveaway now if you’re new to this channel my name is Chris and on this channel we discuss emergency preparedness AKA prepping now periodically I feel that it’s important to do one of these news like segments to really assess some of the national and worldwide threats and really see to drill down to how they might actually impact us though we may be thousands and thousands of miles from the actual conflict Zone in these segments they’re meant to empower you and the information and knowledge you need to make the best decisions on how you’re going to prepare moving forward that being said before we jump in there is one quick thing uh I do have an update on some very exciting news that I recently shared on the channel something I’ve been talking about for years our city prepping lab of sorts and at the end of this video I’m going to tell you more about that so definitely stick around right Russia China at the recent Shanghai cooperation organization or SEO summon in kaghan Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese president Xi Jinping signaled a significant departure from the Western dominated Global Order now the SEO funded in 2001 by Russia China and Central Asian Nations has grown to include India Iran Pakistan and now bellarus marking a unified front against Western influence and this expansion signifies a concerted effort to Esta establish a multi-polar world order challenging the dominance of the West and it’s gaining traction now while the SEO itself lacks the influence of the Gatherings like the G7 un or NATO its sideline discussions are crucial in challenging the established World Order and with turkey participating known for navigating between eastern and western interests and Iran as an observer sharing anti-western sentiments and resources with Russia Putin’s subsequent threat to supply missiles to the houthi these targeting Red Sea ships emerges as provocative albeit likely symbolic and Iran shares with Russia two things it’s hatred of the West and its willingness to exchange Aid and resources with Russia whether that’s oil maybe plutonium technology missiles suicide drones or mortars is it any surprise that Putin left the meeting and proclaimed that he was contemplating supplying missiles to the houthis to attack the Red Sea ships it’s more of an empty threat in my opinion and despite Russia’s threats to supply cruise missiles to the houthis the logistical and production constraints make it an unlikely and ineffective move the performance of Russian cruise missiles has been poor in Ukraine with most being intercepted and supplying more advanced systems like the s300 would be both challenging and short lived now Putin’s proposal for a new Eurasian security pact including NATO members seeks to expel external military influences from Eurasia while promoting the use of national currencies and SEO trade to reduce dependence on West Western Financial systems now these initiatives they really represent a tectonic shift in global geopolitics as SEO Nations redefine international relations and diminish Western dominance now tectonic is a word Putin used in his address of the group and it was also in the word of a group’s ratified document it said tectonic shifts are taking place in global politics economics and other spheres of international relations and if these states remain on their current trajectory I think it’s undeniably true as Russia Iran and China strengthen their Alliance implications range from covert actions to economic destabilization already manifesting in localized conflicts worldwide and if you’re interested in hearing more about this power transition Theory and how it could end in a World War I would encourage you to take a look at the deeper exploration that we did in last week’s video which I’ll link to in the comments and description section below now the question remains from this Shanghai cooperation organization Summit are these developments merely geopolitical maneuvering or a genuine threat to Global Peace the complexity it really underscores the unpredictability of geopolitics and the potential for significant disruptions in the world order so what are your thoughts are we witnessing more of the same or a transformative shift in international Dynamics let us know your thoughts in the comments section below climate now like so many other words the word climate has become so politicized and divisive in the mainstream media that the mere use of it really results in people stealing up their defenses now climate is a long-term average of weather patterns and conditions in a specific region are globally influenced by natural and human factors and whether is what you see on the maps or looking out your window and when repeated patterns or weather occur or are more frequently hitting extremes without returning to the historical baselines well that’s going to really help to provide an indicator of what to expect in the future regarding climate and more importantly what you should prepare for over the Long Haul now hurricane barrel for instance since the first of the 2024 Atlantic season having rapidly intensified to Category 5 driven by unusually warmer than average ocean temperatures Barrel was the first Category 5 hurricane to form in June since records have been kept and historical records can be examined was there ever time when a category 5 existed in June we don’t know but we do know it hasn’t happened at any time in the past that we can determine and if you live between Monterey and Houston I hope you’re preparing for the massive amount of rain that’s already falling and will continue through at least Wednesday so what’s fueling this well sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic critical for Hurricane formation are currently at record highs measuring 2 to 3 degrees above Celsius above normal in the Caribbean Sea according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and these temperatures typically for September are unusually warm for early July and it really makes you wonder how many more degrees we will register when September actually comes and how that will affect future hurricanes and it’s not just unusual usually High ocean temperatures impacting weather that keep me up at night we live in a time when even China the consumate denier of information and purveyor of propaganda warns us that we are in store for hotter longer heat waves and China’s meteorological Administration warned in its annual climate report that it faces intensifying heat waves and erratic heavy rainfall and predictions indicate maximum temperatures could increase by 3 to 5° F within just three decades with Eastern regions in Shing Jing EXP expected to be hit the hardest it’s important to understand that a 5° consistent elevation in temperature even spread out over three decades is a landscape changing increase droughts and heat induced crop failures are inevitable with that type of increase even China is developing a plan that will extend several decades into the future and America seems to be one of the only countries in the world whose majority does not endorse the science that greater changes beyond the weather we see when we look out the window are happening now you can pick a headline at this point nearly 30,000 people in Northern California evacuated as Raging Wildfire spreads this fire is fueled by drying brutal and potentially historic Heatwave a life-threatening Heatwave hits California’s wildfires burn exceptionally dangerous situation historical California heat wve putting Millions at risk and over 150 million people across 21 states are currently under heat alerts now granted the media is given to sensationalism I get that but there’s an underlying threat of facts and empirical data Behind These dramatic h headlines and that’s what we should take note of look I’m no scientist but I don’t have to be one to follow the data threads here they’re trending pretty specifically in One Direction further and further from the Baseline that I grew up to understand and I’m not going to wait for it to swing back to that Baseline when I know that wildfires droughts delug storms and heat waves will challenge our intricately wired infrastructure this year and in the coming years I would encourage you to do the same and align your Preps to meet the challenges the data shows that we’re going to face in the coming years and that starts with your food water and energy preps and I’ll link to videos on those in the comments and description section below to get you started or to make sure you’re on track and I really feel that we just can’t bury our heads in the sand or get bogged down by the endless rhetoric and sound bites I would encourage you to take measures Now to create a more secure future for yourself so what do you think have you been this year or are you now being impacted by extreme weather do you think it’s a one-off or is it a sign of worse things to come let us know your thoughts in the comments section below giveaway for this week we’re going to give away a fire and waterproof document bag all you have to do to participate in the giveaway is just simply comment on this video give it a thumbs up and complete the giveaway form Linked In the description section below and this information will only be accessible to our team using a random selection tool next time we do one of these new sessions on the channel we’ll choose a winner from the comments and reach out to you via email that you provide in the submitted form so congrats to our last giveaway for the readywise emergency food supply kit Deb Gamboa we’ll get that sent right away too elections all right this one’s going to be tough uh as if I didn’t open up a can of worms already with the previous talking point on climate let’s talk briefly about the political situation that we’re in right now and we’ll do this Tastefully the way we always do here on the channel um if you’ve been following this channel for any length of time you know that I avoid politics for a lot of reasons I’m I’m going to treat you all as adults and I don’t feel it’s my duty to lecture you on my political views but I think it is necessary to examine what’s happening out there and plug in some solutions to counter any ways it may impact our peace security and stability both individually and as a nation now at least for me uh the recent presidential debate brought to the Forefront just where things stand politically in additionally recent Supreme Court rulings are departure from our recent past and have really opened Pandora’s box with one of their particular ruling uh America is changing in significant ways right or wrong that’s a fact and there is a growing anger and frustration on all sides which will worsen over the next several months now the obvious punctuation points will be the election day in January 6 the date set by law for Congress to meet and formally ratify the election results and I don’t need to take a stand to see what tensions are rising this election could challenge our security and safety and determine the course of the country and the world for for decades to come and when tensions they reach a boiling point there’s a good chance that things are going to overflow there are people in your own community and perhaps you are one of them content to cheer the chaos and watch it safely from the glowing screens in your home but this is becoming something far more consuming and it’s going to very well show up at your doorstep and I don’t know how this is going to end business as usual or what some are calling already a revolution but I do know that what we should all be doing is taking a pause for a moment and asking ourself if this is really the route that we want to go as a nation more importantly are you okay with seeing this nation flip into a state of chaos uh look I’ve shared many times on this channel before that I’ve lived in a nation that went through chaos for several decades and believe me when I say you don’t want the consequences of that in the meantime it’s likely that we’re going to at least see some pockets of civil and breast that could disrupt everyday life and this is why basic preparations like food water and energy they can offer stability the storm ahead it’s inevitable your current preparations will determine how well you weather it how are you preparing for potential civil unrest or societal breakdown including government failures lawlessness social unrest economic instability and distrust in institutions share your comments in the section uh comment section below I’m sure this I’m sure we’ll have some great comments down there at the top of this video I mentioned that I had some pretty exciting news for this channel in our community uh as many of you know I’ve been looking for plan for several years to set up an environment where I can create a test ground and expand the Channel’s content and knowledge base that we share with you on a regular basis uh I did share a couple of weeks ago that I started escrow I still am in escrow two weeks later we’re pretty much halfway through we’ve got about two more weeks left uh it’s a small it’s several Acres it’s got a couple of houses on it uh one in particular is a structure that I’m going to use as a model to teach building out systems for practical home including part apartment layouts which is a common request we get um my own personal home I’ve done a lot but uh there’s a lot of projects that I would love to do and for those that are married you understand that uh yeah your wife probably doesn’t want you to turn your house into a big recording studio so this is really an opportunity for me to have my own environment where I can build whatever I want and you know film and document the whole process so that’s one structure that we’re going to do now the other house it has a massive open room that I can uh I’m going to convert into a multi-shot studio for different formats such as the typical video like this one we’ll have one layout then we’ll have we’ll have another camera that can point to a different side of the layout to maybe do interviews and then we can set up a different layout a third layout where we can have a different shot and so I’m doing all this because really where the channel is gone is I’ve kind of Hit the ceiling in my current home and the current setup and where I want to go to expand to create new content to do more educational videos uh I just need more space basically and on top of that the need to actually get land is is for that you know for the same reason that many of you are concerned that I want an environment where I can create a good growth setup uh I can do these projects rain harvesting energy storage solar you know gu gardening raising animals all these things and a lot of this I can do in our current house but not at the level that I’ve wanted to um I was recently speaking with a few their friends that they have large prepper channels and we’re kind of all at the same at least timeline of what we’re trying to do really working and pivoting to building an off-grid setup and I know I’m not the only one in this position that’s moving in this direction um you know and again I’ve enjoyed the years that I’ve had on this platform here on this channel but and all the content that we’ve created I’m proud of it but at this point more than ever I feel like it’s really time to get out in front of the camera and really document the Practical things that need to be done it’s easy for me to sit here in the studio to record things here and there but I just needed an environment where I can do this on a large level uh there’s an old phrase that I live by and I was taught years ago uh the phrase is more is caught than taught and I think now’s a time where I want to get out and document my journey turning a piece of land into a prepper setup and as I’ve also mentioned recently here on the channel we’ve got sponsors that we brought on we probably continue to add more the reason I’m doing this is because we’re using the finances that are coming in to fund the projects I’ll be adding more individuals to the team um and it just takes money to do all this at the level that I want to do to really document this process and teach uh what I’ll be doing is on those videos with sponsorships uh usually we try to space them out every couple of weeks so I’m not bombarding you with them typically what we do is kind of more on these news segments we’ll put an ad about halfway through and if you’ll notice I I will those videos I’ll turn off the YouTube ads so you don’t have to wait to skip ads you don’t have to wait to watch ads at the beginning of the video and if you get to the ad the sponsorship slot that’s halfway through the video all you have to do is just move the video a minute ahead and you’re back on your uh journey of listening to the video so it’s an easier process and again I hope no one takes offense to the sponsorships that we’re at or sponsors that we’re adding but again um I respect you all and what I’m trying to do is find ways not to add financial burden on the community but instead sponsors are able to come in and are willing to come in to provide products out align with the community’s concerns uh we we’re working with several uh you know Battery Systems solar companies uh what else do we have some of the online security stuff we have a few more lined up but again I get trust me I get uh approached non-stop by a lot of sponsors that have no relationship to what this community is concerned about and for those I just obviously don’t bring them on the channel but what we try to do is find actual sponsors out of line with what we’re doing um let me end here on more of a personal note again I kind of share what we’re doing what you know kind of the business aspect of what’s going on here in the Channel with the pivot um on a personal level yeah I mean I’m very concerned with what I see with each passing day and it’s nothing new that I’ve sit on the channel for many years and here we are years later and what a time to be alive um but the thing I always want to encourage and I always want to end these videos with this message and I will say it until you know till I whenever I’m done with this channel which I don’t really ever see happening because I love what I do here um none of us are victims we all have an opportunity to prepare the world is changing for many it’s a very uh in ways that are very that are very going to be very difficult uh it look I mean again I’m not going to sit here and bemon all the problems that we’re going through but all I have to say these videos are designed to inform to educate to PR help you prepare and understand what’s ahead so you can make ready and prepare in such a way that you you’re staying ahead of these things and I despite all this I find myself having to forcefully uh make a decision every day to stay encourage because it is easy to get caught up and to get focused on the negative and for me I’ve said this before but I I use a phrase that I’ve learned to remember to remember I choose to remember to be thankful I choose to remember what I have I have my health I have my family we have a roof over our head we have food in the refrigerator I’ve lived in countries where those things aren’t always a given where security peace those aren’t always given um I again I I mentioned a second ago I lived in a nation a post collapse Nation for many of you know I I lived in Afghanistan in 03 uh I did NGO work with a uh group of Physicians we primarily worked at Cabo University I taught English there one of the things that really broke my heart was there was a video that recently came out of uh the Taliban is now oh they announced in a classroom full of girls that they’ll no longer be allowed to have uh you know proceed in their education pathway and the room is all girls they all busted out crying and uh I don’t know if that was one of the rooms that I taught in but it looked very similar uh it reminded me of exactly when I was 03 that was really tough um cuz I I have a daughter I live in a country where we have peace where we have choices and I cannot imagine living in an environment like that and I say that because count your blessings be thankful for what you have there’s a lot of challenges in the world but I would encourage you to stay focused on the positive stay focus on what you can impact what you can do there’s always going to be challenges out there but I realize the time that I live in yeah America’s got problems and I know the audience that watches this is not all in America but yeah we have challenges but when you step out side of America and you see what’s going on around the world there’s a lot of challenges and I say that because I always have to try to keep things in perspective I always have to pull myself back and remember to Remember to Remember to be thankful that I can wake up every day without fear of any kind of persecution or anything happening to me I’ve got food I’ve got a family and I get an opportunity to communicate to a community like you and so it humbles me and again thank you for joining me on this journey um I think there are challenging times ahead but I am so optimistic that we as a community will always find Solutions and that’s what keeps driving me here every day to produce videos for you always enjoy your thoughts and your feedback feel free to post it below and as always stay safe out there
