Lets consider the possibility that in the near future due to global warming this planet could see a radical increase in climate change.
Uncontrollable flooding, heatwaves, earthquakes just to mention a few will inevitably place you, your family and loved ones in a position where you might have to evacuate at a moments notice.
Will you depend on the local emergency services to give you adequate food, water and shelter?
I'm sure that you will already be aware of global changes around the world, are you honestly going to say that it will never happen to you?
Ok, maybe I do need to have a survival kit ready just in case…. so what would I need?
The three most basic and important requirements to stay alive –
- Water
- Food
- Shelter
Imagine hundreds if not thousands lining up in a cue to get such items. Your partner is stressed, your children/friends are in shock and you have absolutely nothing to give them apart from emotional and physical support. Who knows when either of the two will run out……
Most people won't think about this scenario as it may be too much to handle or they place too much of an expectation on emergency services to perform should the time come.
The problem is, when it does it will be too late. You will literally be caught off guard because instead of planning for your own safety and well being you have decided to buy a brand new flat screen tv, or xbox etc.
When it happens will you ever forgive yourself? Who exactly are you going to blame???
I have a family, and I cannot begin to imagine what state of mind I will be in if a global catastrophe hits where I live. All I know is that for a few momentary sacrifices I can create a budget that will allow me to have such emergency plans should I need to evacuate my family.
At a time when shock will set into the majority of people, I will take satisfaction that I will be able to provide the three most basic needs of human survival for my wife and daughter. This is my insurance plan that I will make for them. Its not that hard to do you know.
