Wood gas, or wood gasification, is a decades-old renewable energy technology that converts chunks of firewood, wood chips or other cellulosic biomass to charcoal, volatile and combustible gases, and occasionally, combustible liquids.

Outside of the cities would be safe, backroads etc.

If the SHTF, the safest place to be would be right here where I live. I am short of firewood, but I have trees and saws. We have plenty of food, and older vehicles to get around. But the problem is, it will be a Snow Hits The Finns event, like we are possibly getting fifteen to thirty more inches of snow in the next twenty four hours.
Yeah, I have a bunch of trees on my land, some of the White pines are about a hundred twenty five feet tall. There is no preparing for a forest fire, especially if it is really dry out in the summer. We do have strict burning bans here but the stupid state made fireworks legal, so people are using them a lot in the summer now. I think it was a mistake to do that.

We would shelter in place as well... we have livestock, reliable fresh water and we are in an isolated area.
Our biggest bug-out fear, is forest fire.
We have had more than 3 feet of snow, over the past 3 weeks. No big deal, it's north Idaho. Brutal cold? No big deal, it's north Idaho.
Fire season, however... I get downright twitchy. We have been lucky, thus far... but every summer brings that possibility...
