An introduction to essential emergency preparedness for every household, with step-by-step guidance on how to get organised and prepare for natural disasters, power outages, and other unexpected emergencies.

In the wake of every local and global natural disaster, economic crisis, or weather emergency comes a renewed sense of urgency to become more prepared for the unexpected. Prepping 101 offers simple steps anyone can take to become more organised, starting with creating a preparedness notebook and learning to repackage store-bought food for long-term storage, then collecting rainwater, building a solar oven, and heating with alternative sources. This approach helps readers accomplish something worthwhile and avoids overwhelming them with information overload, a common problem with all-encompassing preparedness tomes. Graphic-rich spreads plus text in bite-size pieces mean this valuable manual is also user-friendly.

Book Features:
  • The apocalypse isn't going away. With global warming making weather more unpredictable and global politics increasingly volatile, people everywhere need to learn preparedness skills to protect their families, neighbours, and pets.
  • Disaster preparedness for fans of organising and planning books. This step-by-step guide to dealing with imminent emergencies and longer-lasting crises is inviting for individuals and families who take pride in planning ahead and keeping a home that is organised, uncluttered, and prepared for the unexpected.
  • Tested advice from a proven expert. For the last 15 years, author Kathy Harrison has practiced disaster preparedness with her family and community and is noted for her rational, non-alarmist approach.
