Even though the weakness of the United States power grid is well known and has been for years, both the American government and individual citizens remain vastly underprepared for an EMP attack. The collapse of the power grid in the United States is a very important and serious subject. It would be much more than a normal power outage. It would be a complete power grid collapse across several states, if not the entire nation, that could potentially take up to three years to fix. The power grid affects may things that we don't normally think of, including: Communication Food Transportation Electricity Energy Products Waste Services Running Water Banking/Electronic Transactions Military Defense Systems Losing just one of those above things would be enough to cause chaos, and an EMP attack is going to cause us to lose all of them Losing all of these services simultaneously would be detrimental to the United States or any country you are in. To become better prepared for an EMP attack, you are going to need to put together an EMP attack survival kit. Your EMP survival kit is going to be a collection of items that you keep in your house at all times and that you will be able to rely upon to help you withstand an EMP attack over the long term. Categories of items for your EMP attack survival kit that we will cover in this book include: Defense Maps Books Backpack Basic Survival Items Food and Water Assets Faraday Cage Your Wits The purpose of this book will be to help get you started preparing for an EMP attack if you are not a prepper. Remember, you don't have to be a doomsday prepper to prepare for disaster. You can be a completely ordinary person and still gather some basic items that will amplify your preparedness. This book will show you how to do so.
