A place to share information on emergency preparedness as it relates to disasters both natural and man-made.

Would you survive in the event of economic, political and social collapse? What natural disasters such as tornadoes, earthquakes or hurricanes are prevalent in your area? What can you do? What should you be doing now? What do you need to know/have?

This is a community for those who think that it's better to be safe than sorry, and that we need to start preparing now.

I was curious about how little you can do with to survive and started looking around. Then I thought about refugees and how many governments give them the bare minimum. If SHTF, you could expect a bare minimum package if the disaster were widespread enough. Also, this will give you a guide as to how much you'll need to survive.

A Syrian refugee in Jordan receives the following. These are rations for one adult for one week:

420 g of rice

400 g plain flour

400 g tinned kidney beans

170 g dried lentils

85 g dried chickpeas

125 g tinned sardines

300 ml of vegetable oil

400 g flour coupon

1.5 kg rice coupon

You'll be making a lot of flat bread and hummus to go with your rice and beans. All of this is taken from: https://www.sbs.com.au/food/article/2017/06/14/why-i-will-be-eating-syrian-refugee-week

Page 57 of this report breaks down a diet analysis in one of those camps:
