If we hit the new ice age tomorrow, how long would you be able to survive?

There will no power, everything would freeze including the ocean surface, but life underneath it lives, all the modern stuff you enjoy would cease to exist without power including heating.

How do you think you’d make it through. Let’s say it’s a short ice age for 10 years (hypothetical) but a very severe one.

My heat would work just fine, at least for a few months. There's also a few months worth of food here. After that? IDK, but hopefully I would have a little time to try to figure something out.

@robb65 what would be your source of heat? Firewood? If grids go down there would be no electricity and gas supplies would be down.

@DareToSayIT There's wood, a decent stack left from last winter already split, and a couple of truck loads I picked up a few weeks back waiting to be split. There should be close to a half tank of propane and i have made it through a winter on a half tank.

@robb65 That’s pretty cool.

@DareToSayIT The last wood I got was from a neighbor I didn't even know. He had trees down and partially cut up he needed out of his yard. Someone told him to call me.

@DareToSayIT at our house if we lose electric, our gas stove still works to cook food
