RE: Why Americans aren't prepared for the next mega-disaster
Being the President and Co-founder of the Telework Coalition, the nations leading telework educational and advocacy organization, I frequently address groups in the matter of what we like to call disaster avoidance and I concur with what Mr. Redlener says. Both individuals and organizations talk about being prepared for a 'big one' but so few are it's alarming.
I have been told by very well informed people that the occurance of a "Mega Disaster" is a when, not an if.
I hope you can jolt at least a small part of the population to wake up to this situation.
