We are living in a world where nuclear war can happen at any moment. Global politics and leaders of nations are volatile; the whole of Earth seems to be teetering on the brink of social and economic collapse. Unless nuclear threats are totally neutralized and universally controlled, then this danger of the human race being wiped out with the very weapon we have created is truly possible.

You might be thinking if it’s even possible to survive a nuclear holocaust (or if it would even be worth it). The atomic weapons of today are much, much stronger than the ones made decades before. What will happen when these deadly weapons are launched, no one is certain. It may all seem to be certain doom for all of us, especially those in populated cities. But for those who are living in very remote areas… there may be a small chance.

If you live in an area of the country that is known to have Wildfires (such as many parts of California), an emergency survival kit and plan will be necessary.  The United States is one of those rare countries that has an abundance of trees, foliage and green landscapes where the possibility for Wildfires is always present.  Even if you live in the Sunshine State of Florida, Wildfires have been known to break out at a moment’s notice.  Having an emergency survival kit and plan handy is definitely a good idea.

It’s starting to seem that every year in California, wildfires are displacing thousands of people, and forcing thousands more to be under evacuation orders. On top of that, to prevent wildfires (to avoid law suits), PG&E have shut off power to approximately 2.1 million people in 2019 (in some places, up to two weeks!). Although the casualty rates for these types of problems are relatively low, they can be a massive pain in the ass and be extremely stressful. Fortunately, with a little basic emergency preparedness, the damage, stress and inconvenience can be greatly minimized!

Solar flares are an umbrella term used in the prepper community to cover CME’s (coronal mass ejections), and solar storms. Solar flares in themselves aren’t actually that bad, even the strongest one’s ever recorded haven’t caused much damage. A CME is the thing to be worried about though, it’s basically (without getting technical) a cloud of super charged plasma that got shot out of a solar flare and was thrown out into space. A solar flare can be observed right away but a coronal mass ejection can take up to 2 days to reach earth (so we’ll have warning of it before it hits).

A drought by definition is a period of time ranging anywhere from several months to several years in which an area experiences a deficiency in its water supply. Nearly every part of the US will go through periods of reduced rainfall but droughts are increasing worldwide and becoming more common. By having a better understand of the types of damage a drought can cause, we can better prepare and make plans to counter the disaster situations created by droughts.
