Teaching SERAA (South East Resilience Action Area) Mapping today. I still don’t know why they don’t teach these things in schools, it’s been nearly 10 years since I invented this stuff. How hard can it really be to “make the invisible visible” and show people the life supply systems which surround them, nourish them and keep them safe?
Here’s a typical North American SERAA Map. You can see how reliant we still are, after 10 years of problems, on centralized systems. The SERAA recommended systems are still in use by only a small fraction of the population, although of course the nanosolar revolution has really helped with electrical power.
But you don’t usually die from lack of electricity, usually what nails you is lack of clean drinking water. You got a well?
SERAA Mapping is an essential skill for staying alive during these troubling times. It’s the first thing we teach after reading in the school system at DCAR in Africa and it’s saved countless lives down there, as well as providing people with a shared language to talk about economic necessities in. Here’s a fairly typical DCAR SERAA Map.
You should make your own SERAA Map. It’s easy to draw if you use the SERAA Grid Map layout rather than the Lifewheel.
Do it!
