He also had a pretty popular post here a while back about prepping for doomsday [1], interesting read.

There's a whole subculture called survivalism (or prepping) [1] dedicated to that kind of thing. You may want to look that up.

You also may be interested in the article "Doomsday planning for less crazy folk". [2] It has been previously discussed on HN [3], and it's also been expanded into a book titled "Practical Doomsday". [4]

I'm personally advocating for tighter border controls. It has the immediate effect of helping with stagnating real wages, and might also help with the contingent problem of climate migrants.
