What are you doing, or what do you want to do, or what do you think that people should do, in order to achieve food security and avoid the most severe impacts of the worldwide trend toward cost-of-living crises, resource depletion, tariffs and trade wars, impediments to migration, accelerating climate change, and so on?

Are you currently producing your own food? Do you think that you're secure where you are, or that you will be in a few years, or do you plan to move somewhere else?

Do you forage? Dumpster dive? Do you share food with friends and neighbours? Do you trade services for food?

Just wondering who is out there and how they're managing...

I go with more hardy food options (ie: potatoes, onions, carrots) that don’t need refrigeration. Fresh herbs can be dried for long lasting tea or spice ingredients. Also just for the ease of cooking basic dishes that can be made into a variety of things (boiled chicken, mashed potatoes, baked beans) are helpful to have and use as well.
