On the bright side, for a good little chunk of money, you can buy a gasoline powered sea water converter. It will take sea water, or any dangerously polluted water, and turn it into clean drinking water.

You can also buy a gas or solar powered generator...or, best of both worlds, a hybrid solar generator that will also run on gasoline.

Start buying gasoline, and store it in your outside sheds, to be safe.
