If anyone reading this hasn't yet done so, one thing I recommend to everyone is that to the extent that it's possible you should give up everything that involves burning fossil fuels.

I'm still indirectly responsible for some diesel use for example when I ride the bus, and when I buy rice that was transported thousands of miles before it got to me. When you've eliminated the easy stuff from your personal life such as driving and air travel it's those difficult problems that remain which are the ones that need will working on in order to help people prepare for the worst of the catastrophe.

So I think local politics and co-operative food production are places to look if you want to do something.
