'World in crisis': France publishes new emergency survival guide
""Every day, you witness a world in crisis - accelerating events, extreme weather, pandemics, wars in Europe and the Middle East, trade tensions, energy crisis, etc. "Our society must adapt to be stronger. Every citizen is a player in his or her own safety and that of the Nation. "Resilience refers to our shared willingness and ability to resist the consequences of aggression or a major disaster, to continue our lives under acceptable conditions, and to quickly re-establish our normal functioning.""
""It is aimed at a variety of emergency situations; natural disasters such as wildfires, floods or earthquakes; technological and industrial accidents such as a chemical leak or nuclear disaster; health crises such as another pandemic; cyber attacks or disinformation attacks such as taking down vital online services; terrorist attacks or a "threat linked to a major engagement of our armed forces outside French territory"""
A national emergency preparedness initiative published by French authorities urges all residents to assemble a survival kit and learn protective measures. The initiative lists scenarios including wildfires, floods, earthquakes, chemical leaks, nuclear incidents, pandemics, cyber attacks, disinformation campaigns, terrorist assaults, and threats linked to major overseas military engagements. The initiative frames resilience as shared willingness and ability to resist consequences, maintain acceptable living conditions, and restore normal functioning quickly. Existing systems such as weather alerts, annual wildfire warnings, FR-Alert texts, and nuclear-plant evacuation protocols and pharmacy distribution of iodine remain in force alongside the new guidance.
