More About Emergency Survival Gears

By Lelia Hall


In the current world we live in life is very dynamic, people and situations change so instantly that we cannot just determine how anything is going to happen. This calls for one to be always ready for disaster since preparation is vital in anything and the preparation enables one to increase their chances of surviving in case a disaster strikes thus the need for emergency survival gears.

To begin with, one must find a kit that can accommodate the things they need most but is weighty enough to carry around and even run away with. Some of these situations can be so intense that one may not find the energy to carry around everything they need but only the necessities.

As part of the survival gear a knife is considered to be a very crucial tool in the trade this is because a knife serves as a multipurpose tool in these gears. The knife is considered to have several uses such as in cutting the fruits and meat hunted it can be used as a weapon too while it can also be used as a digging tool in case some digging is required too.

Fire is also considered to be a very important source of heat in our daily lives but in case of an emergency one cannot easily form a fire without an alternative fire source. This makes the matches very vital in the case of such a crisis because they enable one to start a fire without the hustle that the fore fathers had to go through in order to start the fire.

In many cases when a crisis occurs foods tend to be scarce and very rare to come by. This makes the inclusion of the foods to be something that cannot be overlooked in the emergency gears. In most cases dried foods like the nuts and cereals are parts of the foods that are considered in this cargo this is because the dried foods will tend to last for longer and are light as compared to other foods.

Water is also another necessity in the survival kit this is because life without water is improbable. Human beings can survive without food for weeks while a human being without water cannot survive this is because our bodies are mainly composed of water and a major reduction of the water levels is fatal for all human beings.

In such critical situations the only shelter man has are his or her body and maybe the clothes and his or her personal belongings. And in case they need to rest their houses will not be the safest place to go. With this in mind among the most essential kits when in a crisis is either a sleeping bag or a tent this to shelter them and sustain them during the night.

In emergency situations accidents happen and illnesses occur and if one is not well prepared then they have to go through a rough time patch which at times tends to be fatal. To try and reduce the number of fatalities that occur due to emergencies one of the essential gears in the kit should include painkillers, antibiotics and also disinfectants.
