Doesn’t it seem like we hear of a new disaster every week? They happen more and more frequently around the world, and you shouldn’t think that it couldn’t happen to you. Being prepared for a disaster is just common sense.
So, what can you do? One way to prepare is to have a go-bag packed and ready with all the essentials for living, as well as copies of important documents and some cash.
You can also make some preparations in your home, so that, in case you have to leave quickly, your house has a good chance of still standing when you get back.
Your electric, gas and water should be shut off at the source, so that a disaster will not cause your home to flood or burn down. A ruptured gas line could even lead to an explosion.
In some cases, boarding up your windows can save you from expensive damage to the glass.
