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.

How do you prep in a power outage due to an over-capacity system and the heat/humidity combination is no longer compatible with human life? (lemmy.world)

Or go near big bodies of water, big lakes or ocean. Then you can cool cause there is temperature difference. If closer to mountain, then just go up to avoid heat build up(reduce 0.65 Celsius per 100 meters altitude)

Underground might not be feasible without AC if you don't have good insulation. During BC, Canada's heat dome 2 years ago, you lose ambient cooling slowly, and then everything starts to feel warmer even in the basement parking.

For urban area, just prep the shopping center into cooling centres(including local stadiums ) that can help cool many people with emergency AC/resting place.
