If a major disaster struck and you couldn't live in your home would you have a place to go?
Don Kubley claims he has an answer. It's called the InterShelter™ and Kubley said it could provide safe shelter for everyone within two hours.
The solar dome's President and inventor spoke before Congress and now FEMA is considering the InterShelter™ as the emergency shelter of choice across the nation.
It can withstand winds up to 200 miles per hour and temperatures from 120 degress Fahrenheit down to 70 degrees below.
All you need is a screwdriver, a wrench and a step ladder. Kubley said three people could put the 21 panel pieces together in just 2 hours and then disassemble it in 40 minutes. It can be used over and over again.
Kubley is making the shelters in Bakersfield. He currently supplies them to the Alaska National Guard and the British Army.
With the threat of wildfires and earthquakes, Kubley says the Southland stands to benefit from these shelters.
