Is your location a death trap? Learn the 7 Pillars of Survival Geography to assess whether you need to relocate before collapse—while you still have time. Most people are living inplaces that only work because of fragile systems: trucked-in water, daily food deliveries, and a functioning power grid. When those systems fail, will your location sustain life—or become a trap?

In this broadcast, Shepard introduces the Seven Pillars of Survival Geography—a systematic framework to honestly assess any location's post-collapse viability. Score your current home, identify red flags, and decide: stay or go?
