Emergency plan

What makes a good emergency preparedness plan?
One key factor is accurateness. To prepere an ultimate emergency plan we have to be very accurate and consider every prospect of each situation.
Have you thought about an emergency plan for the future? These are some notes we feel are important for the community to consider in the future.
· Isolate the house better so you can decrease your electrical use.
· The farmers have to build up a stock consisting of grains.
· The scientists need to work harder to get forward in their researches.
· Limit the daily electrical use and if you go beyond the limit your electricity will be turned off.
If the oil were to run out the ambulances won’t be able to reach and help someone I need of emergency medical treatment. This will be a hugh problem in the future. Keep healthy and if you know you are in need for medical treatment, you should live nearby the hospital.
The production of medicine must also be located nearby the hospital; otherwise it will be a problem when the transporting won’t be possible anymore.
You should also consider living near your job, since the bus- and train traffic may not be available due to unessential commute and you may not have the possibility to drive your car to work.
How will the farmers be able to deliver the grains into the city without gas?
How will the medicine be delivered to the hospitals?
How should be reach out to the community about the crisis?
These are some three small question marks, which can develop into something very critical.
Whose responsibility is it to look after our emergency plan?
It’s the environment responsibility to make to emergency plan, the community responsibility to inform each one and then it’s up to you to take part of the information. The plan would consist what you can do and how we can survive the crises. It has to be structured and smart so it’s easy to know where you can get food, heat etc. The information has to be available for everyone in the community.

Can we just go back to our previous life? Why or why not? What long-term changes do you think we should make?
We can go back to our precious life; the question is how serious the consequences of that will be.
But however, we shouldn’t go back because we have to take responsibility for the future and family.
If we should go back or not also depends on how many people are willing to make some, not to big, sacrifices. We have to get everyone with us if we want it to be worth living this environmental life.
A long term change we are forced to make is, doing what’s best for the future and earth. As we live now, isn’t the ultimate way of living for our future and earth.
Why do many people feel the desire to go back to life as it was before the oil crisis?
I think that desire comes from our life being to convenient. We are used to our life, and we feel that changes are too complicated. We know about the consequences but we are too lazy and comfortable to go through with the changes.
One reason can also be that we don’t understand this oil crisis, the information we are receiving is way too complicated for the public to understand and relate to. It would be a lot easier to get everyone to continue living this environmental life if the information we are receiving was more simplistic.
If you wanna help in the oil crises!!

Here are some good examples if you want to help the oil crises:
- We can use bikes instead of cars. And if we absolutely need to take the car we should use electric cars.
- We can grow our own vegetables and whets and avoid unnecessary transports.
- We shouldn't buy so much plastic things.
- We can take the train instead of the plan or the car.
- We should use low energy lamps
- It's good to recycle things
- And turn off the TV and lights when you’re not using them!
So, how can you motivate other people to do the same?
We have to tell people that it’s just small things that have to be changed. If everybody work together it’s so much easier. All of us that knows about these crises have to be good romodeles to these important changes. We have to show people how easy it’s and inspire them to do the same.
