Eye catching to say the least, but to anyone that had been paying attention this is old news. According to the report, nearly 500,000 people will die in the first few minutes of an EMP. Assumedly, some will die because they rely on electricity for life support, and some may be in surgery at the time and the list goes on and only further emphasizes the dependency, life-threatening dependency on electricity. Then there are the auto accidents and train derailments because signal lights failed, and planes will fall from the sky, or will they.
The average person can only speculate on what will and will not happen and what may or may not function. However, because an EMP is, or can be used, in military operations, the full extent of what the possible damage would be is not clear, nor will it ever be until it happens. Targets of such an attack could prepare and protect against such an event, so one must leave the targets guessing in military operations. Will it be as destructive as everyone imagines, or even beyond our imagination or somewhere in between. Prepare based on the worst-case scenario.
How Would You Prepare
Logically, you would prepare by learning to live without electricity, however logic is one thing practicality is another. Most working families cannot do this. You need electricity to withdraw money and to pump fuel, so immediately your life is altered making some tasks almost impossible or make them feel like they are impossible, until you can adjust or do without altogether.
Keep in mind, to become fully prepared, and to know exactly what to expect, you would have to sever your dependency on electricity, and the only way to do this is to live without its many benefits for extended training periods. It will take careful planning and commitment.
Practicing in a controlled environment allows you to experience the scenario, so your mistakes will not be life threatening, instead they can be a learning experience. This means you have to unplug, truly unplug, not for hours but for days and even weeks at a time so you are not left guessing about whether you can survive in the days after an EMP. There is no substitute for real life experiences.
Electricity is so established in people’s lives they do not give a second thought to the many things that rely on electricity. Some may dream about going off grid somewhere, and yet the first thing some people will do is to .....read full article HERE
