Disasters in the US and around the world are on the rise. Climatologists have been predicting an increase in extreme weather and predict that within the next decade there is a greater chance that you will directly encounter a natural disaster. In addition to climate issues, there are a variety of other crisis situations to consider like terrorist attacks, pandemics, economic and nuclear disasters.
