I think the whole prepper community has gotten a bad rap. Sure, a lot of preppers tend to focus on the worst of the worst: an EMP, chemical/biological warfare or a collapse of the economy. But that's not all this community is about. Disasters do happen and they happen frequently. Case in point: I live in the Interior of British Columbia where over 100 wildfires are currently raging. My town was already evacuated once this summer and may be evacuated a second time. During the evacuation stores were closed and it was not possible to buy fresh food. Most people left, but some did not and they had to have had some food stored up to be able to make it through the evacuation period. I'm not a survivalist by any stretch of the imagination, but I did have enough food on hand and that made the difference.
