Why do I need Emergency Kits and Supplies?

Unfortunately Emergency Preparedness is a topic most people prefer not to discuss and usually just push aside in hopes that nothing will ever happen.

But if we look back at the last few years, the number of severe natural and man made disasters have significantly increased on US soil and we are no longer as safe as we like to think. 

In the 60ies and 70ies people were stocking up on emergency and disaster survival supplies. Underground bunkers and community shelters were built to be prepared for a disaster. Basements were filled with Emergency Supplies and Survival Food like canned goods and stockpiles of water along with other essential Disaster Supplies.

Then the Berlin wall came down peacefully, the cold war ended and US residents started to forget about the importance of being prepared. Generations of people born since never had to deal with issues of national security and were never even confronted with the need to prepare for emergencies until recently when hurricane Katrina flooded an entire city within hours and terrorist acts brought great harm to our country.

Under normal circumstances everyday use products are readily available and people are taking it for granted. Many supply stores are open 24 hours a day and internet shopping allows online ordering with convenient delivery service.
As a result 72 hour Emergency and Disaster Preparedness is being neglected and most US residents are still living in a world of denial, leaving them dangerously unprepared for emergency and disaster situations.

So please ask yourself:
What if there is a disaster and our regular food and water supply chains break down?
What if a disaster forces us to leave our homes at a moment’s notice?
What if electronics fail due to power supply problems and stores and banks remain closed, credit cards don't work?
Do we have the supplies we need to be able to survive for several days without going shopping or get help from others? 

That is why the US government and community leaders along with countless private organizations and companies like us, CTC Products, are working hard to raise awareness among the public to prepare for disasters and emergencies.
 
US residents need to take emergency and disaster survial preparedness back into their own hands to ensure that they have enough supplies on hand to survive for at least 72 hours (3 days) without outside assistance.

While 72 hour Emergency Preparedness might not be the most exciting topic to discuss, it is the one topic that can save your life.

So what should be considered an emergency or a disaster situation?
In general emergencies and disasters are situations that happen without advance warning and that are so out of the ordinary that they pose a danger to lives or property or both.
Emergencies and disasters can happen on various scales and involve from one person to families to entire cities. They can happen at any time, and at any location such as at home, at work or on the road.

Some emergencies and disasters you need to consider preparing for are:
house fires
wild fires
traffic accidents (don't just think of a fender-bender, think on a larger scale)
power outages for extended periods of time
earthquakes
hurricanes
heat wave
flooding
heavy snow storms
food contamination
tsunamis
industrial accidents
acts of terrorism

1: get a 72 hour survival kit
2: make a plan; prepare lists with important data, information and people to contact.
3: check your home and office for potential hazards and talk to your family members and coworkers about 72 hour emergency preparedness.
