What would you and your family do in a doomsday scenario? Rupert Faust and I explore permaculture as a solution to modern fragility: how to own your own production, feed your family, and build a parallel society that can actually scale. We talk about the tradeoffs between real estate and Bitcoin, what happens when “shit hits the fan”, and why the future might look like citadels instead of cities.
Rupert Faust is the founder of the Grounded Permaculture Action Party.
