By George Dodson


If perhaps the economy drops, what would be the first thing that you will do? Do you have what it takes to handle such situation.

That is the subject on a lot of people's mind these days. Survival becomes an essential topic when people think about the worst case scenarios such as this. What tools, what equipment, what attitudes and what preparation would they need to make it through difficult times?

You might be asking yourself what is it that I need to survive in an emergency situation?

The three essential things you must consider our water, food, and fire.

Without water, man won't even have the strength to survive. Every time you drink water, it is important that you make sure it is purified or filtered regardless of the source. This is especially true of creeks and rivers. These processes are a must since water from rivers or creeks contain harmful agents which are dangerous to the health.

So what tools or equipment do you need to have water for survival?

Luckily, you can now purchase affordable and effective water purifiers and filters anywhere. These include pumps with built-in filters, to special water bags with filters that fold up into a tight space. You can also opt for water tablets if you want to easily purify your water before drinking. You can buy these tools in any leading supermarket near you.

As soon as you have considered water to quench your thirst you would also need to think of nutrition. You can go for long periods without food, but your body needs certain essentials to continue to operate efficiently. You must consume protein, vitamins, and their minerals from some source. You can purchase dehydrated food. It's inexpensive, easy to store, and is full of all the essentials you need in a food product. MRE's or Meals Ready to Eat from Army stores are also a good option. These are an excellent way to provide for your food needs. In addition, you can find a lot of information about edible plants and how to snare animals prepare for cooking.

Fire is also an essential element for survival. Although fire may be harmful to people it can also prove to save life. To protect ourselves from cold and to cook our food as well as boil our water, man learned to create fire.

You begin this process by learning how to start a fire. Provided that you don't have a lighter or a match to make a fire with, then you can just use the old methods of making a fire. Always be sure to have a waterproof match with you all the time every time you're in the outdoors or in the wilderness. Thanks to smokers, BIC lighters are available by the millions. The more supplies you have the better. You can also opt for flint and steel. Be sure that you know how to use these before actually touching it. You'll never know when these things can save your life.

Having to survive means having the right attitude and of course the right equipment and tools. Just be sure to keep in mind the three basic things that you need and you can guarantee survival.
