Citing reckless language over nuclear weapons and a growing disregard of scientific expertise on climate change, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists announced last week that the Doomsday Clock was moved forward by 30 seconds, according to NBC-TV in Chicago and other media outlets.The purpose of the clock is to warn humanity how close it is to destroying the planet and itself in the process. The Bulletin was established by former Manhattan Project physicists after the atomic bombing of Japan. The clock had been sitting at three minutes before midnight, but now is at 2½ minutes prior to 12 a.m. This marks the closest the clock has been to midnight since the 1950s, when the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. were in the midst of the Cold War.
While the potential usage of nuclear weapons could be the most likely cause of a global catastrophe, a worldwide or more local crisis could also come as a result of extreme weather, pandemics, or natural or manmade disasters.
Nashville, Tenn.-based 4Patriots, which provides a variety of products that help people become more self-reliant and independent, warns that people need to be prepared for a potential global catastrophe, as well as local disasters that could make it impossible to access food, clean drinking water and other essential items.
“Emergency situations continue to happen all across the U.S., but many people are of the mindset that it will never happen to them,” said 4Patriots Partner Allen Baler. “But when it does, only those who have prepared are going to be able to avoid needing government support that could result in ending up in a FEMA center.
“Despite a seemingly unending series of extreme weather events, drinking water contaminations and attacks on our electrical grid, many Americans are still not prepared to handle a situation in which food and clean water are not readily available. Another advantage to being prepared is that it leads to peace of mind. No matter what happens, you know that you’re prepared because you stockpiled nutritious food with a long shelf life, as well as clean drinking water.”
