Prep Blog Review: New Year, New Prepping Tips

prep blog reviewEvery new year brings a lot of new ideas and projects to look forward to, but many new challenges as well. You never know what the future holds, as an old saying goes, but you can surely prepare for anything it might bring.

Here are 5 tips we stumbled upon this week that will help stay safe in a lot of SHTF situations:

1. The Best Water Purification Methods

Prep 1“Water is second only to air when it comes to survival. Without water, you cannot survive for more than three days.

4. 70 Tips That Will Help You Survive What Is About To Happen To America

Prep 4“You may have noticed that things are starting to get crazy. Financial markets are imploding, violent crime rates are soaring in our major cities, and we have witnessed a truly unusual series of natural disasters in recent months. War in the Middle East continues to rage out of control, and Islamic terror continues to spread all over the globe.

And many believe that 2016 is going to be a year of political shaking, civil unrest, governmental crackdowns and great economic chaos in the United States.

5. Back to Basics: Why and How to Stockpile Water for Emergencies

Prep 5“I wanted to start a new series on the Prepper Journal called “Back to Basics”. I know many of the readers of this blog are already well along their own journey of preparedness so some of the content might be remedial.
