Purifying Water During an Emergency The treatments described below work only in situations where the water is unsafe because of the presence of bacteria or viruses. If you suspect the water is unsafe because of chemicals, oils, poisonous substances, sewage or other contaminants, do not use the water for drinking. Storing water safely Store one gallon of water per person per day. Store at least a three-day supply of water per person. Collect the water from a safe supply. Thoroughly washed plastic containers such as soft drink bottles are best. You can also purchase food-grade plastic buckets or drums. Seal water containers tightly, label with date, and store in a cool, dark place. Replace water every six months. Never [...]
Water Survival – Purification-& Filtration
Posted: 25th February 2013 by admin in Water Storage, Water SurvivalThe average human requires two quarts/liters of water daily just for hydration. During the course of a normal day, you will be hydrated from coffee, juices, teas, sodas and even certain foods, so you may not realize what it actually takes to keep your body hydrated. Once you find yourself lost or stranded water becomes critical to your survival. If the weather is hot, you may need up to one gallon/four liters daily just to replace lost fluids in a survival situation. Dehydration is fatal if not treated by consuming water. Once your body has lost 15 percent of its fluids, organs will begin to fail and this can happen in less than 72 hours if you are sweating heavily, [...]
Ways to Disinfect, Filter and Purify Your Water
Posted: 20th February 2012 by Preppers in Water Storage, Water SurvivalPosted by Devin Peterson on 2/7/2012 to Water and Hydration Disinfecting and purifying your drinking water in a survival situation is extremely important. Below we have outlined a variety of techniques you can apply when you have come across non potable water and must hydrate yourself with no other options. It does not matter whether your source of water is a river, a pond, a puddle, morning dew, rain, ice, snow or whatever the case may be, you may run a great risk by not purifying and sanitizing the water before you drink. The difference between purification, filtration, and disinfection. Disinfecting your water means to kill or inactivate harmful pathogens that are biological in nature, such as viruses, bacteria, and protozoa. Filtration means [...]
Rain Water Harvest System With A First Flush
Posted: 12th February 2012 by Modern Day Redneck in Water Storage, Water SurvivalTags: rain water, rain water harvest system
The couple of days I got home before dark I was able to do some work on the rain water harvesting system. Even though I had one in place, it was a make shift system and I was loosing many, many gallons of water every time it rained. Plus I did not have a “First Flush” system in place to catch the contaminates before it dumped into the tanks. What contaminates you ask, after all it’s clean rain water right? My house like most is an asphalt shingled roof and every time it rains some of the particles from the shingles wash off into the gutter making their way to the bottom of the storage tanks. Plus [...]
A human can survive a maximum of 3 days without the intake of water, assuming you are at sea level, at room temperature, and a relative humidity. Depending on the climate conditions, it has been recorded that people have lasted longer than two weeks with no water supply. In cold temperatures water is still very important and requires the same 3.78L (1 gal) of water per day. In snow conditions snow must be melted first. A lack of water causes dehydration, resulting in lethargy, headaches, dizziness, confusion, and eventually death. Even mild dehydration reduces endurance and impairs concentration, which is dangerous in a survival situation where clear thinking is essential. Your body requires 3.78L (1 Gal) to 6L of water [...]

Water and the War on Terror

http://www.grist.org/article/2010-03-02-water-and-the-war-on-terror/ The terror-ble, horrible, no good, very bad freshwater crisis While leaders in Washington have been war-gaming the national security risks of climate change, they’ve only started to connect the dots to the closely related threats emanating from the growing crisis of global freshwater scarcity. At first blush, water and national security may not seem to be interlinked. But the reality, as narrated in my new book WATER: The Epic Struggle for Wealth, Power, and Civilization, is that the unfolding global water crisis increasingly influences the outcome of America’s two wars, homeland defense against international terrorism, and other key U.S.national-security interests, including the transforming planetary environment and world Geo-political order. Former U.N. Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali famously predicted 25 [...]
