We know to keep a supply of clean water, can goods and medicine to tide us over the initial shock.
But what about the long run? How long will it take to get things back on track?
We need Electricity for every aspect of our lives from
lighting our homes, preserving our food,
pumping our water, and running our heating systems to communicating with our
friends and the outside world.
Whether the cause is a hurricane or another natural disaster
or a terrorist act or a failure of the grid (which given the age and overloading
of the system
is cause for serious concern); we can be greatly inconvenienced by a lapse of
more than a
couple of days without electricity. What can you do? What will it cost? What are
your options?
Before you can make an informed decision you must educate
yourself.
These books will give you the basics so you can decide if you want
to do it yourself or contract it out.
