Sue Mickley uses history as a lesson for energy prepping and subsidized renewables are not the answer; natural gas infrastructure is key.

This is why I enjoy every bit of warmth the world wants to provide. Being a history buff, I heard about the “summer of snow” or “year with no summer” in 1816 which destroyed all the crops and lowered world temps 5 degrees. There were three major volcanic eruptions between 1813-1816 culminating in the eruption of Mt. Tambura, Indonesia, in April 1816, which was heard 3,000 miles away in Perth, Australia.

It took 50 years for temps to get completely back to pre-eruption levels. Based on geologist research the world is overdue for a big eruption that could again lower world temperatures. Do we have the resources available to make it through: heat, food, water, filter masks, etc.? Our government definitely has enough stockpiles of food, seeds, and supplies, so no fear on that point. But we may not be ready in other ways.
