Notes
Family Emergency Simulation
The family emergency simulation experiments mentioned is a way of determining emergency situation readiness. It involves simulating an emergency by shutting off various utilities, limiting vehicle use, and trying to live off of what you have in your home. Every family is different and should design this experiment according to their circumstances and desires. Which utilities are disabled as well as the length of time the experiment is run can and should be adjusted. The purpose of this exercise is to find gaps in your family's emergency preparedness plans and supplies so it should be designed to find those gaps.
