Preparing for Disasters: Your food and drinking water supply
2003
Amy H. Simonne
Having enough clean drinking water is a top priority during any emergency! A normally active person needs at least two quarts of water each day. However, needs vary depending on the weather and an individual’s age and health status. When clean water is not available, we need to purify all water before using it for drinking, preparing food, or personal hygiene. Many methods for purifying water are available, but none (by itself) is perfect. Often, a combination of more than one methods works best.
