I think a lot of people like to think they'd know what to do if the world went to hell tomorrow. But, be honest with yourself- do you really know what it would take to live, at least slightly comfortably, without the convenient comforts that we take for granted today? Think about it- what would you do without a grocery store, fast food, or pizza delivery for that matter? If you had no one preparing your food for you, how would you do it, and do you know how to find the food you need? We rely so much on a food supply that is quite easy to disrupt, and then we would probably starve.
When you are stuck in the city or a suburb and there is no water, food, or electricity, what is the difference between that urban situation and a wilderness situation? The answer is they are actually very similar. Perhaps you have a short stock of food that remains. You will also have to deal with predators, but of a different kind-- mobs, criminals, and murderers. It may be harder to live off the land. How will you be safe from scavengers, intruders and protect your loved ones? The answer is the training that you can do today. It's just like when the military does mock war games- the reason is to be ready at a moment's notice, and not to be asleep on the watchtower. However, you don't have to have military training to live through Urban and Emergency Survival Food situations. You just need a book or a guide, and some practice. For instance, Damian Campbell has many tips that you can put into practice and implement right away. You should also do mock runs of these techniques, in order to truly master the methods that may save you later.
Securing Your Safety in Urban Riots.As relevant as ever for our times, 2011 was a year filled with riots in many nations all across the globe. These riots give survivalists a small sample of what could be to come when food, water, and shelter become sparse in a national emergency. From our TV screens, we could sense the panic and hysteria of those cities in riot. In Cairo, the Egyptians swarmed into the town squares, threatening the safety of everyone living in the vicinity. In Russia, organized mass riots occurred everywhere as people felt threatened by political instability. Even here in the United States, we had the Occupy Wall Street movement. Riots of modern times are controlled and quarantined by police, but when violence breaks loose you will be able to see video clips of mob violence on YouTube. In an urban emergency, security is a pleasure that is not taken for granted.
You can try to learn some self-defense skills if you ever have to do close quarters fighting. Thus, you can protect yourself against burglars, and muggings, which are bound to increase as police and social order go away. Some people would like to stock guns or learn self-defense to keep themselves safe from rioters. Sadly, most self-defense will only work for defending against 1-10 people at most, not entire mobs. If you have ever seen police clashing with protesters, you know that a couple guns against hundreds and thousands in a mob are no match. That is why the best strategy is to literally hide and make yourself nondescript. You may make it seem like your shelter is uninhabited or better yet; you camouflage your shelter so people don't even know where you live. As impractical as this may sound at first, this is where cellars and backyard bomb shelters may come in handy. If you live in a nondescript apartment building, perhaps it may be safe to stay there, as long as looters don't target your building complex. The most important catch is that looters don't steal your emergency survival food supply. If you have young children, don't let them play outside, because that will signal that vulnerable people live in the vicinity and hungry rioters may begin looting. At night, you may want to keep the lights off, so no one can tell that you are still living there. Don't go out at night- pretend like you're in a dangerous neighborhood of LA, and the last thing you need is the attention of local criminals. You will want to make your shelter like a small, but hidden fortress. In Damian Campbell's materials, he actually tells you to get out of the city as a preferred option. However, when you cannot, he also includes other tips on city survival as well. Below are some tips about food and water rations.
Stocking food and provisions.If you cannot evacuate from the city when a crippling disaster strikes, hopefully you have stored up provisions that will help you avoid going outside. People will rush to the supermarkets, and supplies will run out in a matter of hours. Potable water will be scarce as well.
What provisions will you need? A complete list can be found from a survival expert named Damian Campbell, but for starters, you can build your emergency survival food situation with canned goods, and plenty of water. You will also need a method for cooking these foods, such as lots of matches (unless you like canned carrots cold). However, it may be a challenge to cook these foods while remaining hidden. If the disaster happens during wintertime and you need to hide, cooking will release steam, which may give away your position. The solution may be to cook in an enclosed area, and have a ventilation shaft that leads away from your shelter. You should also have vitamins stocked up; since chances are your diet will still be malnourished.
What to do now.Even though you don't have a survivalist teaching you side by side, you have information sources like in this article and you can read more from experts like Damian Campbell. You should practice some of these time-honored techniques for preserving food, game, and drying your foraged foods.For now, you can create an emergency food supply list and stock up one non-perishable emergency survival food to get you through temporarily in the event of an emergency. Gallons of water, canned foods, dried and freeze-dried foods all make a good start. Stockpile sugar, flour, salt, Lyme, matches, and a book or two on how to identify wild edibles, make traps, and how to build shelters. Familiarize yourself with basic sewing skills. All of these things will add up to a more prepared you, in the unfortunate event of an emergency.
Damian Campbell helps you to practically learn some survival techniques, as well as important things like packing short-term and longer term emergency field supplies. One of the key benefits of this program is the emergency food supply list. If you read through his materials, you will already be more prepared than most people in your neighborhood. You will be able to survive even as the "urban jungle" and all of its predators close in around you. He teaches you to stay calm, assess, and always have a backup plan, as well as the essential items you need to survive urban disaster scenarios.
