How to Survive Anything, Anywhere is a complete handbook of the urban and wilderness survival skills practiced by elite U.S. and U.K. military units. Dr. Chris McNab has collected expertise from both sides of the Atlantic, and reveals the fundamentals of survival for every environment, from the subzero arctic to the scorching desert—and for every scenario, from being lost in a trackless wilderness to being under attack in a city.

Each of more than 500 practical techniques is presented in easy-to-follow steps accompanied by 500 helpful illustrations that show you how to:

  • Find your way in arctic, desert, jungle, or mountain terrain
  • Identify edible plants
  • Hunt, trap, and fish with jury-rigged tools
  • Build fires and improvise cookware
  • Locate underground water
  • Construct shelters
  • Perform first aid and use natural remedies for common diseases
  • Stay safe in a car or on planes or trains, and know what to do in the event of an accident
  • Keep your home safe—select security devices, construct a safe room, survive a house fire
  • Defend yourself—know when to fight and learn realistic unarmed combat techniques
  • Survive terrorist attacks—identify suspect packages, spot potential suicide bombers, take cover from explosions and gunfire

And, above all, how to think like a true survivor—even when things are at their worst.

Dr. Chris McNab is the author of Endurance Techniques (SAS Training Manual), Elite Forces Survival Guides, Living Off the Land, Martial Arts for Special Forces, and Urban Survival.

What would happen if there were no more deserts?

I’m curious as to what everyone’s ideas would be. Scientifically the deserts are an important ecosystem, so what do you think would happen if we turned them all into farmland? I am looking for doomsday ideas. This is a worst case scenario that I haven’t come accress yet.
I’m talking about if the deserts could be made into farmlands, then what kind of problems would it cause to have it all turned into working farms. I’m envisioning problems with mineral depletion, over production of oxygen, and maybe say a “plant plague”

What do you think of this?

So for the past three days, I have been having dreams where I am in the same scenario, but different circumstances. To be clear, I am facing the end of civilization, and in each dream I am in a different location, missing a different item. In the first dream, I was in a strip mall trying to find wheat. In the second, I was driving around, trying to find ammo. Last night, I was in my house, trying to find medical supplies.

Now, the scenario doesn’t surprise me that it was in my dream. I have been getting into the survivalist’ mindset for the past few years, so to have it show up in my dreams isn’t bizarre to me. However, this is the first time that I have had it appear in my dreams, despite my research and gathering of supplies for such scenarios. But my biggest qualm with these dreams is that I am amazingly calm with what is happening. While everyone else is panicking, I am just calm and rational, trying to secure what I need.

I understand these are just dreams, but do you think there could be any reason for why I am so calm in them? These are the first dreams I’ve had where I am even remotely calm.

Any insight is appreciated.

Do you think the 7.5 earthquake in Mozambique fits into the whole “end-of the-world” scenario?
