The War on "Terra" by Juice Media

"The War on Terra.  It's 2013 and the world did not end by meteorite or by Mayan calendar.  But fear not: we might just be able to get the job done ourselves.  Join Robert Foster as he sets out to discover where Civilisation™ is making the fastest progress towards annihilation.  In this edition of the Civilisation Report, Robert learns about Australia and Canada - two oft-neglected pioneers of peace, progress and prosperity - in conversation with our antipodean colonial correspondent Ken Oathcarn and his Canuck counterpart, Fagin Heighbard.  Dear viewers, consider this a fair warning that in terms of language and affront to the dominant culture this could get fucking messy. Written & created by Giordano Nanni & Hugo Farrant in a suburban backyard home-studio in Melbourne, Australia - on Wurundjeri Land." ‪~ http://thejuicemedia.com


Eco-Wood Powered Emergency/Camping Stoves!!!

With all that is happening on Planet Earth these days, it is really important to have an Emergency back up for cooking/ boiling water, in the event that you lose electrical power or don't have access to fuels or batteries.  Also, in regards to maintaining clean air and a healthy environment, many campers, eco-conscious off the grid/homesteaders and survivalists, are looking for clean, energy efficient ways to cook.  

Here are two stoves I've found, that look like essentials for any emergency kit.  They can also, of course, serve as excellent camping stoves.  Both of these companies put much energy and attention into helping Third World countries have clean, healthy, affordable, safe ways to cook.  So I also feel really good about supporting them, in their innovative endeavors...

 

BioLite CampStoves

This Bio-stove will also charge your phone and other electronics!  It's good to have your solar chargers available as well, especially if you already have one.  But solar can take some time to charge and they rely on sunlight, so this is a good additional and potentially more immediate power source.

Envirofit G-3300Rocket Stove

I have personally purchased this stove, and although I haven't tried it yet, I look forward to using it and feel good about having it in my emergency kit!  I believe you can safely use it indoors as well, which is a plus during a power outage in winter.

You can purchase this stove at:
