It seems that the apocalypse is getting closer, or at least a big blackout. The Austrian government considers this danger so real that is preparing its population so that it knows how to survive in the event of a failure in the supply of the electrical infrastructure in Europe.
After the critical situation in which Europe was immersed in January due to the alteration in the frequency of the electricity supply due to the imbalance in the demands, the Austrian authorities have taken action on the matter. Through a series of messages, which can be seen in the main media and in the streets of cities throughout the country, the government recommends to its citizens stockpile supplies and supplies to survive for about two weeks. Specifically, every house should not be missing: fuel, candles, batteries, canned food and drinking water.
Along with these reservations, the authorities consider equally important that citizens establish a network of cooperation with relatives and neighbors, to avoid that nobody is isolated.
In a highly digitized era, stopping traffic lights, computers, ATMs, telephones and the internet, among other services, represents a great danger. For this reason, the Austrian government has proposed that one hundred of its main military headquarters will be self-sufficient to the greatest degree possible by 2025.
As explained by Lieutenant Colonel Pierre Kugelweis to the EFE news agency, in the event of a major blackout, the barracks will serve as support base for civil organizations, such as firefighters and health workers.
