One of the reasons I live in three countries on two continents of what US folk call 3rd world. The bigger reasons are the lack of most everything survivalist and gun related. I doubt many would understand. That’s a good thing.This is probably true for most who live in 3rd world conditions. Little to no change. For the western world. Not so much.
The downside is the high cost and lack of availability of quality solar equipment, countered with a livable system of 400w panels and a 24v200a battery as overkill. No cold, no need for A/C.
