So pretty much if you don't have one you are fucked so this will at least give ya a chance.
With out going into full detail my zsp is getting a large boat anchored in swift moving/deep water such as a river or quarry. Smaller boats to make supply runs ofcourse.
I'll edit more in detail later. Share/Discuss

Wait till they become popsicles and go lopping off heads. I work in -30 weather frequently in the winter, zombies wouldnt have shit on me.

Local infestation: I already live out in the middle of nowhere on fenced-in property (4.5 acres) with guns, a 2000 gallon water tower, a large garden, some solar panels hooked up to a few car batteries, and construction tools/skills. I'll just wait it out.
Worldwide infestation: Won't even try to survive. I'll pack up all the ammo and water I can carry, bring a crowbar and machete, and just go from place to place killing as many as I can. Keep one loaded pistol for worst case scenario.
1: The world is full of natural obstacles that zombies dont have th coordination to dodge, such as cliffs and lakes
2: If the virus affects animals, this point is moot. But if not, zombies would probs be chowed down on by every form of wild animal.
3: Humans didnt dominate the planet by hiding, we are just incredibly good at killing things. We have to put limits on killing animals because weve made entire species go extinct... Accidentally.
4: Cold/Hot climates woud fuck a real zombie in the asshole. Heat would turn them into bloated, maggot infested piles of waste. Cold would render them immobile just like any other animal, its not so much the feeling as its what it does to organic material.
5:Unless it was a terrorist planned event, such as releasing a flu virus and infecting the cure with zombie virus, I see it being contained within days.
6: every bump, scratch and broken bone would accumulate fast. Woudnt be long before most of them were immobile due yo basic things like walking into walls 100x or twisting ankles etc.

2. That depends on whether or not animals instinctively avoid the disease-ridden flesh.
3. We're talking about billions of nearly unkillable, plague-spreading, former humans that are hunting us. These ain't the dodo birds.
4. I can see how cold would pretty much stop zombies in their tracks, until it heats up again (unless you plan on living somewhere like Antarctica, the temperature's eventually going to go over freezing). Heat, however, depends on whether bacteria could coexist in a body with w/e virus causes people to rise from the dead.
5. There's tons of theories of how it could start and spread. It really depends on how long the virus takes to kill someone (if it does) and bring the corpse back to life or how long it takes to be noticed in general.
6. Bumps, scratches, and broken bones don't stop a zombie. Part of what makes zombies dangerous is that they are unstoppable until the brain is destroyed. Hell, even a severed head could theoretically still bite you.
2. yeah thats pretty much why i dont care about that point but its interesting
3. This is when it comes down to what you think a zombie is/does. In my mind of what a zombie is, dying is pretty much their specialty.
4, The idea is that they'd be easy prey when frozen, so you could go all slaughterhouse on them asses. As for heat, well... I suppose thats one way to look at it, undead maggots would be kinda lolz. If zombies are undead, then i imagine the same things that happen in death would happen to them. The bloating being one :-p
6. If zombies regenerate faster than regular humans, i suppose that would be true, but a broken leg is a broken leg. Its not necessarily the pain that stops you from moving, its the inability for the leg to hold weight.
Same with the head, if by some gypsy trickery the head could still bite, you would have to be enough of a dunce to fall onto it. In which case, you were a goner eventually.
