Emergency Disaster

From Hiroshima to Chernobyl, Fukushima to the growing legacy of lethal radioactive waste, humanity's struggle to conquer atomic energy is rife with secrecy, deceit, human error, blatant disregard for life, short-sighted politics, and fear. Fallout is an eye-opening odyssey through the first eight decades of this struggle and the radioactive landscapes it has left behind. We are, Pearce finds, forever torn between technological hubris and all-too-human terror about what we have created.

I've been in several earthquakes that damaged the furniture and windows of my apartment, but otherwise, everything was fine.

We don't want to be added to the statistics in a negative way, but if we don't prepare for these events, we just might. You see, in all these tragic cases, the civilians, the simple people, those who just want to continue living their lives, they are the ones who are always left confused and helpless. And it's not because they weren't informed - we all have access to the news now - so, the problem is not information dissemination.

You never know when or where the next disaster will hit. Make sure you know what it takes to survive. Do you have an idea how you would get through an immediate emergency, or worse, one that lasts for many months or even years? The last few years have seen more natural and manmade disasters than we could ever have imagined. The things we take for granted can be gone in an instant and when that happens, it’s not the time to start making plans. If you are going to survive, you need to have a plan in place way ahead of time… and that plan needs to cover all the bases!

There is something to be said about the gradual acquiring of knowledge about survival and how it applies to how we live our lives. So I’ve taken that approach in this book - starting with morals, principles, and the spiritual aspects of survival, to the practical knowledge, and then how that information can be generalized to most situations.

People say that "you can never be too prepared" for a disaster - and while that is true, there is such a thing as over-preparation. If preparing for a possible disaster in the future significantly impairs your family's quality of life today, you might need to reassess your priorities. Living in a constant state of terror and paranoia is not something I am particularly fond of. I'm not one of those people who has built such an incredible fortress for myself that I'm almost giddy about the idea of getting a chance to use it.
