2.electrical generator-preferably a wind turbine or solar panel for infinite energy-used to power radios and machines
3.spare materials-due to the un certain nature of the catastrophy it is highly likely you'll need materials to repair your shelter and/or trade with other humans for more resources
4.weapons-now weather or not you believe in guns or not you will need weapons, either to fight off bandits or animals to defend your resources-for this I would suggest a clip fed weapon that is simple enough to be able to be repaired by you or a friend
5.radio-after the great melt most forms of communications will probably be unusable, and radios are incredibly sturdy and easy to use once you get used to them, they are priceless to communicate to other survivors
6.books-get books that teach you how to survive, any survival books will certainly help, as well as some educational books, so the next generation will have the same knowledge and skills as the pre melt ones have
7.flares-when radios don't work or you don't have enough time, flares can be used to signal to other survivors that you are under attack or in danger
8.water filters-with the fall most water sources will probably be either to salty to drink or dangerous to drink, so water filters shall help you, get as many as you can so you will always have a source of fresh water
9.clothes-you will need as many pieces of clothes and the materials to repair said clothes, as they will get worn down incredibly quickly what with the work you will have to do as well as all the dangers you could face
10.a good pair of boots or 3-as in most places walking with sturdy shoes will be a death sentence, as your feet will probably be destroyed either due to poison, or tripping or scratching something, so a good pair of boots that allow you to go over hazardous terrain is incredibly important

if you live in a costal area your best bet is to dig into a tall hill with the storage are being completely underground and the main accommodations above, but make sure to keep all valuables and yourself underground, as to protect from the weather and bandits
if you live in a desert you need to find a hill near to a watering hole, or within walking distance of a sea, and follow the same instructions as before]]> 2019-01-24 11:31:41 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/323849081 Step 4-dangers and how to prepare scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/323850384 with how dangerous this new world will be, it is a good idea to prepare, as even if your little haven of civilisation survives, there is a high chance you won't survive past the first month or even week, as the weather will be crazy, and that is not even taking into consideration desperate animals or humans that could harm you or your shelter.
Luckily there is a easy solution to this, make sure most valuables and breakable things are in the basement safe house area, as that will be the safest place for you and your stuff]]> 2019-01-24 11:37:30 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/323850384 step 5-how to farm scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324247798 if you pack and prepare sufficiently, you could survive for many years off of that food, but it will eventually run out, no matter how much you pack, so an easy solution to it is to farm. That is why you will need to pack some seeds of many different plants, like carrots, lettuce, and (most importantly) potatoes.
it has been proven that as long as a human has supplements of vitamins, a human can survive indefinitely on potatoes, so pack a lot of them.
But one of the major problems of farming in this brave new world, is the fact that with the weather being as screwed as it is, you will need to keep it covered or even underground, Eg using lamps to grow it underground, but this will be a huge toll on your resources and energy so it is recommended if you can to farm outside.]]> 2019-01-25 09:17:08 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324247798 step 6-clothes scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324248570 Now as anyone familiar with any post apokolyps scenario knows, clothes are very important for you, if you wear the right ones you can survive for longer and make yourself look awesome. But that is not what I am here to tell you about, because looking cool is the last thing you want in your clothes line, simple things that are easy to repair and thick or thin enough to survive your local temperature, as well as strong enough to be able to protect you.
Any armour that you can get(weather that be military grade kevlar or plastic toy armour) will help, but again, it should be the best armour and clothes you can get.
(NOTE:gas masks will probably not be needed if you don't live next to the following, military base, nuclear power plant, normal power plant, etc)
boots are also incredibly important, as good pairs can last for years and whether incredible things that most other shoes will not.]]> 2019-01-25 09:21:27 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324248570 Step 7-vehicals scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324250447 with oil and gas becoming a rarity in this new world, you will need to conserve it so you can use it to trade, or as a trap material, and cannot afford to use it on vehicles which guzzle gas incredibly quickly, but there are some vehicles which with some modifications can be useful
Quad bikes:4 wheeled vehicles which can go on just about any terrain and be fine, and with some mods can be changed into an electric one, with a gas secondary engine, incredibly useful for pulling large amounts of supplies to and from areas as well as exploring the new world
Motor bikes:no where near as variable or good as a quad, but useful for quick escapes in urban terrain and roads, but outclassed in every other way by the quad
Normal bikes:incrediby useful, as they are powered by a human controller, and more modern have electrical engines allowing for quicker and easier travel, suggested for urban or road environments, but can work well in rock and uneven terrain]]> 2019-01-25 09:30:23 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324250447 Step 8-cities scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324251895 I have mentioned cites and urban areas before, but as most of this guide is based in rural environments, I have focused very little on cites, because they will be terrible places to try to survive, as with the thousands of people living there, and with there only being a limited amount of supplies people will be out in full force trying to kill those who they are threatened, and with any number of diseases being released or flourishing in the filth, and with all the dead bodies the diseases would spread like wild fire and kill most of the remaining population, so keep away]]> 2019-01-25 09:37:24 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324251895 step 9-medical scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324961463 I have mentioned that diseases will be a major factor in cites, but I have not explained how to protect yourself from diseases, but as I am not a trained doctor nor medic, I would suggest getting a book which explains how to do it properly]]> 2019-01-28 15:09:40 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324961463 medical advice scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324964802 1.get vaccines, all of them, as they will increase your likely hood of surviving diseases 
2.stock up on medical supplies, bandaids, alcohol, ect
3.find good food, having a balanced and healthy diet will significantly increase the likely hood of you surviving, as it will strengthen the immune system significantly

I don't judge]]> 2019-01-28 15:18:41 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324966713 step 11-rebuilding scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324969790 what's the point of living if you can't rebuild for a better tomorrow, as when you die all you'll leave behind is a small shelter, some food and not much else, but if you are able to set people back to building things again, you might be remembered so listen up, here are the things you need for a successful society]]> 2019-01-28 15:23:36 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324969790 steps to rebuild scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324971027 1.citizens-a town is nothing without people to live there, try and get as many people as you can support, as to facilitate growth
2.steady supply of food and water-your citizens will not survive long without sustenance, and if your able to build a proper system for clean water and good food, people will come to you more, but beware as they might attack you for it
3.military-coming on from the previous point there is a high chance that when your town becomes large enough bandits and rival towns will attack you, but you can't let that happen, so you need to build a military, all you need are a few dozen guys, give them some cohesion and weapons, and they can act as a defense force, expand and re-equip as nessecary
4.energy- it'll take a lot more that just a windmill to keep all the lights and radios working for long, so you need to improve that, build some makeshift ones, and set them up in windy places so you can at least have some form of energy to use
5.money-it makes the world go round as they say, but within your town it'll give people a reason to work instead of just waiting for people to give them food, as well as a way to introduce a currency everyone can use
6.-laws-without laws the town would fall into anarchy, this ties into the military as they will probably have to act as a security force to enforce it, and punish those who break it,]]> 2019-01-28 15:25:12 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324971027 good job scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324975300 if you've followed all these steps correctly you should be able to build something in the new world, and with a bit of luck, left behind a legacy for the generations after you, so try not to screw the planet up again, mkay?]]> 2019-01-28 15:32:05 UTC https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/324975300 hazardous enviorments scottie_forrester https://padlet.com/scottie_forrester/w5oey6efc3ap/wish/326207372 with most of civilisation falling or being destroyed, there will be areas of which are either too destroyed or too dangerous to even be in, some of these areas would be the following
1.radiation-with the increasing favour of nuclear energy there will be a garuntee if you live in a develop country of there being a reactor near the city, and while it does have specific protocols to prevent any form of disaster, it is still safer to stay away from them, as the radiation could easily kill you or any plants or animals that exist around it
2.marshes-some areas in warmer climates have marshes, areas of mud and quick sand, which could easily claim many lives if one is uncareful, so stay away from them and on solid ground
3.deserts-stay away, no matter how prepared you are for one, it is better to stay in wetter territory where your not at constant risk of attacks or dehydration
