Booklet to give guidance on preparing for ‘imminent threats’ including armed conflict and natural disaster

The French government is reportedly planning to send a “survival manual” to every household in the country with instructions on how to prepare for an “imminent threat” including armed conflict, a health crisis or a natural disaster.

If approved by François Bayrou, the prime minister, the 20-page booklet will be sent to households before the summer, French media reported.

It will be divided into three parts with advice on how to protect “yourself and those around you”, what to do if a threat is imminent – with a list of emergency numbers, radio channels and a reminder to close doors and windows if the threat is nuclear – and details of how to get involved in defending your community, including signing up for reserve units or firefighting groups.

    Haha maybe! Though I kind of expected no others due to how technologically disinterested people are down here TBH.

    Oh yeah the annual firebreak check for sure does happen out my way, though definitely not every year. I think that’s spot on re/ personal vendettas. Oh yeah that stuff gets more hectic every year, even residential bush fire risk for new builds are really strict now depending on the BAL rating.
