From wildfires to storms, here's how we can keep our families safe.

Summer used to mean long days outside. Not anymore.
John, millions of us are enduring dangerously high temperatures that keep us trapped indoors. Wildfire smoke has inundated communities, causing Detroit, Minneapolis, and Chicago to rank
in the top five worst air quality in the world last week. Devastating flooding in Texas has claimed lives, collapsed bridges, and displaced families. More and more of us have to worry
about evacuating our homes at a moment’s notice.1,2,3
When we prepare for the worst together, we can build stronger and safer communities. Use our Emergency Go Bag and disaster plan checklist to stay safe. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ABB7InY

Whether it's floods, wildfires, extreme heat, unhealthy air levels, or severe storms, emergencies can happen with little warning. While we work together to tackle the climate crisis
and build more resilient communities, one of the most important things we can do today is to prepare ourselves, our friends, and our families in case of disaster.
A Go Bag is a pre-stocked bag equipped with essentials and ready to grab in case of an emergency. Taking the time to assemble one now can help you act quickly in an emergency when every
minute counts. The guide also includes questions and guidance to help you plan ahead.

We hope you never have to use your Emergency Go Bag, but being prepared can make all the difference during a climate disaster.
Stay safe out there,

With extreme-weather events, from floods to fires to scorching heat, becoming more frequent and severe every year, I want to be prepared.
And we can all take steps to be more ready, such as making a Go Bag, or a pre-stocked bag equipped set to go in case of an emergency.
