What's TEOTWAWKI?

TEOTWAWKI is an abbreviation for "The End Of the World As We Know It".
For a business man, TEOTWAWKI could be sudden and shattering bankruptcy and debt. For a professor, it might be waking up one day to find that his research and findings have been destroyed. For a society, it is when millions of people lose their homes and lives to natural disasters that are as terrifying as they are unexpected.
Everyone thinks, or dreams, about TEOTWAWKI at some time in their lives. Having watched and read about so many people suffer from such disasters, it is only natural to wonder: "The next time, will it be my home, my school, my country?" Have you thought about the possibility of a massive disaster happening to our world?
Where to Begin?
TEOTWAWKI is a subject that deals with many disciplines of study. Through months of hard work, we have organised information from our research and discussions into 5 broad articles. They are designed to both interest and teach you all about the various forms of TEOTWAWKI. Do begin by checking them out!

Resolution
You have been through our website. You have read through our articles, have examined our proposals, and perhaps even solved a
crossword puzzle or two. We hope that you have gained substantially by reading the content we wrote. But whether you
have painstakingly gone through our articles or have only skimmed through them, it is important that you understand what we have been trying to achieve by creating this website.

TEOTWAWKI is essentially a dire prediction of any breakdown of world order. In our world's thousands of years of written
History, we have faced many difficulties. From earthquakes to plagues to war, these problems were immense. And every one of
these problems had in themselves the capacity to drive us from our homes and break our civilization. Some of them did. Even
now we face a myriad of potential problems set to erupt at any moment. Against some of these problems we have developed
some form of recourse or another. For the rest of these problems we can only wait and hope.
We face difficulties of a magnitude so great that our efforts appear insignificant in comparison. Our enemies are implacable-
as they say, time and tide wait for no man. The same applies to TEOTWAWKI catastrophes. Without rapid intervention,
everything is will go wrong. A single mistake can lead to devastating consequences.
Is it even possible for man to continue existing for any duration of time, in such a world? Or, more aptly: Do you think that mankind should mankind lose hope?
If you think so, we hope that you will think again.
Ours is a world where a little girl has saved a hundred lives from a raging natural disaster. Tilly Smith saved those lives
when she was ten. Already an asteroid bears her name in honour of her actions.
Ours is a world where investors are battered by fluctuations of a irrational stock market. Yet it is a world where people can
fight for understanding, and after having done so, they are able to hold the economic system as a weapon, safe in their hands.
Ours is a world ready to destroy itself with its own technology. Yet doctors, nurses, people who are just like us, save millions of lives every year
using that same technology.
Ours is a world with too many people on it and too few resources. Yet there are people who care enough about the less
privileged to lend them a helping hand.
If you look at our world and see only the difficulties; if you look at a disaster and refuse to recover; if you look at
misfortune and refuse to accept it...
Then you're missing out on life. If you take away one thing away from the reading of this site, let it be understanding. Understanding of not just what TEOTWAWKI is, but how we should look at it. How we should prevent it.
We hope that you have enjoyed our website.
