Ummm…. Well, what exactly am I preparing for…?
*No answer*
Okay so food, water, shelter, heat…. Maybe mobility, at least initially.
The idea is to make a sustainable environment, preferably within a community. Generally speaking life is easier with other people around. A huge factor is knowing how long you are going to be in a state of emergency. For short term emergences, you could just pack a “go bag”. It would look like a camping backpack. And you would pack it similarly.
For long term emergencies, you need to think about a destination. Some place with a somewhat steady source of food, water, shelter, and heat. As previously stated. Luckily, North America has tons of that. Clothing is tricky, but you don’t need much.
Remember the rule of three. You can go without air for 3 minutes. You can go without water for 3 days. You can go with out food for 30 days. These are general guidelines, your mileage may vary. Being uncomfortable can’t kill you, so focus on the important things.
Other people, are important. Sharing is caring.
