Maybe you weren't born yet but in the late 1970's many of us in the
"counter culture" were into things like "Small is Beautiful" and
survivalism (the non-right wing variety) and know how to do a lot of the
things you mention there. Living in earthquake country you are supposed
to be prepared for such things. It's probably even good to have a
chemical toilet and cook stove you can use outdoors. As for medicine
why do you think some of us studied ayurveda? There are even guides
for herbs that grow in the west that work similarly to Indian herbs. I
go for a walk every day and during the 1970's jogged as far as 9 miles
daily.
And we could probably recycle a lot of plastic that isn't going to
disappear anytime soon. An EMF bomb would also put everyone back to the
dark ages unless you've got a some solar generators and tech equipment
(laptop, etc) stashed in a Faraday cage. Though it wouldn't surprise me
if the metal casings on a lot of gear would block EMF.
The American standard of living is bloated, consumes too much resources
and needs to "ground out." This could have been done somewhat
painlessly but that's apparently not what the right wing has in mind.
