A lot of survivalists think of themselves, however Bruce Beach is prepping for the kids. He hopes to save future generations using his subterranean school bus fallout shelter. Also, he has several great methods for any other prospective doomsday preppers.
1. Other consequences of nuclear strikes
With knowledge of the primary atomic targets in the United States and the behaviour of the gulf steam Bruce is surely on to something. A nuclear attack on the United States would leave a tremendous swath of fallout going from the pacific northwest through the breadbasket and up across the great lakes right to the north pole. If you reside in any of these places, atomic preparation is just something you should think of.
However, it isn't just the consequences of fallout that Bruce is stressed about. With the radiation over the fields of the country, power failure because of the EMP aspect of atomic weapons, as well as the deficiency of commercial infrastructure as a consequence of turmoil, there is a considerable danger for people acquiring food. And as we all know, when people feel hungry they will get crazy. Due to this, Ark II is made not only for an atomic strike but even to be self sufficient after the downfall of society.
2. The supplies of Ark II
Ark II consists of forty two schoolbuses below the ground, protected in eighteen inches of concrete as well as 14 feet of ground. Consulting the fallout material charts will show this is a lot more than enough to protect from the radiation. Schoolbuses are generally right there with delivery containers when it comes to affordability - a figure of $300 was offered on the program although you will be hard pressed to find a vendor at that price. Multiplying that with the sum he has and you have a figure of $12600 - pretty good for a complex which will support many hundreds of people.
3. The concept of a go away bag
Bruce is focused towards saving the kids, however anyone else who comes to his home could climb a tree for all he cares. He has got 'go away' kits organized for the potential moochers who will arrive on his doorway. I am not sure if I accept this methodology. In a post apocalpytic world - individuals will behave in a manner to maximize their returns. Offer some people one inch and they'll take a foot - specially when they are feeling hungry or their close friends are succumbing to radiation poisoning. There is absolutely no security to be spoken of in Ark II aside from the blast doorways and iron grates. It might be that I sound cynical, but exposing oneself to offer materials is an invitation to get overtaken.
4. Family developing
Based on another part on Bruce, people in the group are being provided areas in Ark II if they want to assist in the construction. No matter what nationality or creed, the doorways are accessible to anyone who is willing to put in a little bit of work. It is the type of local community outreach that makes good sense. In return to risking people finding out about his shelter, Bruce will have help in building it.
