[@GregoryJByrne]

Co2 is not nor has it ever caused the climate to change. Earth is a 4.5 Billion year old closed loop that self regulates CO2 with life by combining CO2 2with H2O to capture the EM energy of the galaxy via the Sun and create life. Temp is rising first and CO2 follows as the Arctic thaws. Cause and effect. Energy is neither created nor destroyed. On this planet. All EM energy comes from and or returns to the Double Torus Magnet that is the galactic Nucleus/Bulge. What came first the continental glaciers or the global east to west cataclysmic tidal waves that washed over the continents and froze into the continental glaciers lowering sea levels? Every 12,000 years half the Great Year our solar system eclipses crosses over our galaxies magnetic plane Milky Way causing the END TIMES with EMP pillars of Fire & Brimstone, Oort cloud comet impacts and global east to west Deluge. Now for the next 1,000 years. Watch for the conjunction of the planets with the beginning of the END conjunction coming in 2033 and every 40 years there after. Covid like CO2 is a comfortable LIE built upon yet another inconvenient truth. The Baby Boomers who were born en mass 76 years ago are starting to die en mass from the usual suspects of seasonal FLu which leads to Pneumonia and old age. The MASK of the BEAST to Buy or Sell is a pretext for the depopulation heavy metal vaccine + 5G FINAL SOLUTION before the Great Year Resets the planet. It takes 10 years to develop a vaccine. IF and only IF you can isolate the virus which they can't because the influenza virus changes every season. Don't let the Evil ones Divide and Conquer you along race, creed and religious lines like they did in the 3 genocide peace keeping tours I did. Jesus loved all races because there is only one race, the HUMAN race with only one minority the INDIVIDUAL human. "For what does it benefit HUMANITY to gain the whole world after the Great Year Resets it but lose it's soul?"

Dave cuts to the heart of the matter. He is so simplicticly logicical, its genius. He is way heavy on knowledge and he has given more of it away for free than just about anybody in this community. I have a lot of respect for him.

I watch this video like once a year. His tool heavy approach makes a lot of sense. I need to go to more flea markets to pick up cheap goodness.

[@seekingtruth1110]

Yes he does but he's wrong on the food part. It's totally necessary to have food on hand as we can see. This was done in 2015. Look at the shelves and what's going on. Everyone is going to be trying to get food and trap and it's not going to be as easy as we think. Buy food!

[@tonyroed1199]

Bbbbb

[@samhian1]

@@seekingtruth1110 One does have to consider buying food will have a finite amount. When the food is gone one has to consider cultivation and hunting or trapping. Those who grow and trap have a skill that lasts. I don't think the majority knows how to hunt or trap. Though that all depends whether it an urban, suburban, or rural environment. Also location season play a factor if shit hit's the fan. However, you are right, it doesn't hurt to stock up on food. I fear many will just rely on that alone, one needs to learn how to procure it as well. I think you and he are both correct.

Dave, I've been watching you since your early days on youtube and when you said 'learning drives you' I thought about it for a moment and clearly saw this is how you have been since the beginning. You have gone from nothing to a huge success from that mind set. Your hunger for knowledge over the last several years has brought you to where you are. You have earned your success by pushing forward and never giving up. Keep learning and I'll keep watching and learning from you.

This was very informative and helpful. I'm glad I could hear your teaching even though I'm in Oregon state. Thanks for your time. But on one quick note, I live in Oregon in a area that gets 220 days of rain per year average (Not including the recent drought). So plants to me are very important because we have a vast amount of species in my area. Most medicinal and edible, but I do agree that they are a two-three season resource, I still think they are important for me to learn about along with local trees that are a year around resource.

Damn good speech. You can tell he lives and breaths what he's talking.

Seems "protecting my family" is the main motivation for prepping. Therefore, step one, eat family, step two, survive in luxury.

This is absolutely fantastic. Thank you for this.

Dave, I love your statement at 49:30 about knowledge and learning. Very good. Liked this vid real well and hope to see more.

[@kevinm973]

Wow... This guy is awesome. So much knowledge there, Recommended as a must see from a friend in USA. I could say a lot to fortify this comment but I will just say, God be with you friend.

Dad gum 50 minutes and Dave is getting hallelujah and amens , he’s the Bushcraft minister

[@kenbarrett2500]

This is a late comment , just recently found out about your channel and have been watching and absorbing all Ivan as often as I can ,, that seminar was the most common sense approach I've heard yet , Unfortunately the vast masses will be help me , give me , do for me , or be renegades, scavengers , , the contributors will be few ..

That hour flew by. I could've listen to him for like 3 more hours. He is super smart for sure.

I bought my traps in 1958. I was 9 years old. I began learning blacksmithing in 1956. I was7 years old. My "survival" equipment includes a saddle mule and a pack mule. I live very near a vast forest. If a serious societal problem arises I will fade into the Adirondacks. Good luck finding me. I carry a bow and about 4 dozen arrows. Firearms are cool but they make noise. I have been doing "bushcraft" since childhood in the 1950's.

Great for you. Smart guy!

[@MrMkirk23]

How did I miss this! I live less than a mile from the expo center. Does anyone know where I can get a yearly schedule for Dave's appearances?

[@adriangoede7433]

Incredibly wise man. Great video. My buddy has been after me for sometime to get into trapping. This was the catalyst that pushed me over the edge. Very smart.
