Imagine you are in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. It could be anything; a natural disaster such as a hurricane, flood or forest fire. Maybe its a terrorist attack. Perhaps there has been a major power outage, the water supply cut off or seriously polluted. Or imagine that your car has broken down on a road trip in adverse conditions. Or a hiking trip has gone horribly wrong. In each of these scenarios life as you know it has been disrupted. Now you will have to survive until the authorities have the situation under control or civilization has caught up with you. By nature we are emotional creatures and often react adversely to negative situations. We become angry and want to place blame. Or we become so upset that we are paralyzed into inaction. In a survival situation it doesn't matter how it happened or who made it happen, you are the lead player and you have to deal with it. Use your brain. Think. Remember that a survival situation is just a change of circumstances. We are amazing creatures. We adapt. In this handbook book you will discover all you need to know to keep you and your family safe, healthy, warm and well-fed in the aftermath of an emergency situation. As a responsible citizen you owe it to yourself, your family and the over stretched emergency services to make your survival a priority.
