In the event of a war or emergency, how to stock up on the necessary supplies?

Without food, a person can survive for 1-2 months; but without water, life can only last for 10 days at most. An adult consumes 2-3 liters of water a day under normal circumstances, with a limited supply of at least 500 ml of water for the next day. (The large bottle of Coke is 1.25 liters, and the iced tea is 500 ml, which can be used instead when there is a lack of measuring tools.) )

Water does not need to be stockpiled before the war, but can be stored when war breaks out and it is determined that the environment is about to run out of water. At that time, all the large utensils in the home that can store water will be filled with water (black, very strong plastic bags can also store water, pay attention to sealing the mouth of the bag, avoid light storage), and take a quantitative supply, and go out to collect water when you have the opportunity.

The second step is filtering. First put the sand into the gauze pocket, put it at the bottom of the filter bucket, cover the outlet, put charcoal particles of different sizes on it, and then place pebbles in small to large sizes, and pour the precipitated water (sand, charcoal, pebbles should be covered by 5-10 cm). In the finished filtered water, add bleach powder in the proportion of 10 grams per cubic of water to disinfect, stir and dissolve and then place for 10 minutes. At this time, water is equivalent to tap water, and if it is drunk, it should be boiled. Domestic water can be recycled, do not easily dump it.
