Neosurvivalisme : anticiper l'avenir et s'y préparer au mieux ! Survival Fire Starters – Do You Have 5 Ways to Make Fire? I would put the ability to make fire right behind water, shelter, and food in the list of most important things in a survival situation, and before food and shelter in some cases. Since being able to start a fire is so important, are you really going to rely on only one or two ways to do it? I think you should have at least 5 fire starters in your Bug Out Bag or in any survival preps for that matter. Be sure to notice that I am not talking about different types of tinder, like cedar shavings, fire log, paper etc. 1. No surprises here. 1.They need to be waterproof. 2. 2. Notice lighters is plural. If you are going to buy a nice lighter like that one, you should carry some Butane refill fluid and it will last you 5 times as long as any of the throw away lighters. 3. A firesteel and scraper, or what used to be a flint, is a tubed piece of metal, usually steel or magnesium, that creates sparks when you run the metal scraper down the tube. Cool ones that we have tested include: 1. 5. Be Safe
AVE - English Atmospheric Vortex Engine Mechanical energy is produced when heat is carried upward by convection in the atmosphere. A process for producing an artificial vortex and concentrating mechanical energy where it can be captured is proposed. The existence of dust devils proves that low intensity solar radiation can produce concentrated mechanical energy. It should be possible to control a naturally occurring process. Controlling where mechanical energy is produced in the atmosphere offers the possibility of harnessing solar energy without having to use solar collectors. The Atmospheric Vortex Engine (AVE) is a process for capturing the energy produced when heat is carried upward by convection in the atmosphere. A vortex engine consists of a cylindrical wall open at the top and with tangential air entries around the base. The Atmospheric Vortex Engine has the same thermodynamic basis as the solar chimney.

Olduvaï - anticipation & gestion des risques Smoke Bomb Speed Camera Lottery puts fun in sustainability and green marketing Last week was an eyeopener for me. I attended the Sustainable Brands 2011 Conference in Monterey, CA, and like I tweeted from the event: It is the TED of sustainability. Many of the top brands and ad agencies in sustainability and green marketing presented alongside individual innovators and disruptive thinkers. Kevin Richardson had a particularly intriguing story, and one that for me reflected the spirit of SB11. Kevin used the same approach to storytelling he relies on as a senior producer for MTV’s Nickelodeon Kids & Family Games to create “Speed Camera Lottery.” “Each of us is the protagonist in our own life. It’s a real-time game that captures snapshots of all passing license plates and drivers. A fun way to change behavior During the promotion, the average speed was reduced by 22 percent. Here’s how he structured the “Speed Camera Lottery” story to appeal to the driving hero in us all. Consumer, player, audience, target = ProtagonistStory Problem (is it one I/we care about?)

Bug-out bag Off-the-shelf Red Cross preparedness kit . A bug-out bag[1][2] is a portable kit that contains the items one would require to survive for seventy-two hours[3][4] when evacuating from a disaster. The focus is on evacuation, rather than long-term survival, distinguishing the bug-out bag from a survival kit, a boating or aviation emergency kit, or a fixed-site disaster supplies kit. The kits are also popular in the survivalism subculture.[5] The term "bug-out bag" is related to, and possibly derived from, the "bail-out bag" emergency kit many military aviators carry. Other names for such a bag are a BOB,[7] 72-hour kit,[8] a grab bag,[9] a battle box, a Personal Emergency Relocation Kits (PERK), a go bag or a GOOD bag (Get Out Of Dodge) INCHbag (I'm Never Coming Home).[10] Rationale[edit] Some survivalists also recommend keeping a 'get me home' kit in the car and/or at work. Typical contents[edit] Enough food and water to last for 72 hours. See also[edit] References[edit] Jump up ^ J.
