These are all things we've come to expect, but what would happen if they were taken away? Flooding, hurricanes, and pandemics are affecting areas we once thought were safe from disaster--we shouldn't take anything for granted. Prepping is no longer just for preppers; every family needs to be fully equipped to hunker down at home in case the unexpected happens.

Download or read book Urban Emergency Survival Plan written by Jim Cobb and published by Betterway Books. This book was released on 2014 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stay Safe in the City Here's the book that won't advise you to flee the city and set up a homestead to avoid potential disasters. With many other survival-planning resources emphasizing that approach, urban dwellers that plan to stay put in the city, no matter the circumstances, have been overlooked. Not only do 58 percent of Americans live in cities, but certain risks are higher in cities than elsewhere. Urban Emergency Survival Plan delivers a common-sense approach to urban survival planning rather than advocating that city survivalists need to figure out a way to grow an acre of food, raise goats, and build an underground bunker. The clearly outlined approach here will help you to reduce the risks inherent in disasters that occur in well-populated areas. Inside you'll find: Packing lists for get-home bags, everyday carry items for adults and kids and bug-out bags An overview of threats that face an urban area and instructions for planning safe travel during and after disasters, as well as how to plan a temporary escape Instructions for sheltering in place at work Chapters on food storage and water procurement in urban areas with emphasis on limited space and budget A detailed chapter on security options in urban areas A detailed chapter on sanitation, first aid and shelter Ideas for how to respond and cooperate with government disaster plans Photos of important survival gear Discover the skills you'll need to weather any storm, whether you live in an apartment, townhouse, condominium, single-family home or any other urban setting. With planning and practice, you'll gain the confidence to always feel safe in the city.
Download or read book Urban Survival Handbook written by Urban Handbook and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-03-22 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Be Ready And Prepared For Any Disaster Tornadoes. Whirlwinds. Earthquakes. Volcanoes. Just some of what nature can throw at us and make us need to bug-out of our homes. Fast. It is an unfortunate but true enough of an event that sometimes people have to abandon their homes for a short period of time before they are allowed to return. The most frequent reason for such an incident is a natural disaster like a tornado, a whirlwind, an earthquake or a flood. At least, these are the reasons of a non-permanent nature that allow the inhabitants of a house to return after the emergency has passed. If and when something like this befalls upon you, you should be prepared. Especially if you live in an area where such phenomena are likely to occur and there is historical evidence that they have. In Japan, for example, it is mandatory for the people to sleep with a whistle blower within arm's length to use to notify rescue personnel in case of an earthquake. For the same reason there is a class in school teaching the children what to do. The Ultimate 72 Hour Disaster Survival Kit It all begins with the choice of container which greatly depends upon your load carrying capabilities, as it would rather be impossible to use a vehicle to evacuate in an emergency. It continues with the essential items like the first aid kit, the means to light a fire, the means to have lighting when it gets dark and the means to be able to provide nourishment for yourself and your family, along with the necessary paperwork (maps, identification papers, survival manuals etc...) and a few not as essential but extremely useful items that you should carry along if you have such a capability. Since there is no such class in western schools, it is imperative that books like this are written to introduce people to concepts that can help them survive a disaster, whether they have been informed about it in advance or not. Especially on this last note, it is imperative to react correctly and not panic or freeze. Most casualties after such an event occur because people panic and act erratically and impulsively. Don't make these mistakes. Be prepared for any situation with a proper bug out bag equipped with all the life essentials one would need in order to not only survive, but also thrive in the harsh realities of every man for himself.
