Survival and Austere Medicine Knowledge Base

[Backwoods]

This is excellent information on Survival and Austere Medicine. It goes into obtaining and using medical equipment, supplies, and medicines when there is no Doctor or ER. This is in the form of a .PDF file that is 212 pages long.

Here is an updated link to the Austere Medical Manual. It is a worthy read.

I question their knowledge when their graph gives a 85% of concern about climate change and only 50% concern on natural disaters.
Makes me curious about what criteria they base their decisions on.
It doesn't make any difference to which country or on what continet you live. Natural disasters occur year round.
Climate change is slow acting and hasn't posed much of a threat yet.
It is hard to watch the news without hearing of a natural disaster ssomewhere in the world.

Climate change is a natural disaster in many people's minds. It is funny that "Global Warming" has been re-named "Climate Change". With the "Climate Change" we will get more tornado's, hurricane's, hail-storms (had our first hail-storm of the year on Saturday), insane snow-falls, earth-quakes .. it is all part of nature.

I still believe that we cannot control nature - nature controls us. Humans are just too stupid to realize that there is nothing we can do except to change with what nature makes us do.
