Are we truly prepared for the hidden threat of an Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP)? From nuclear attacks to solar storms, EMPs can devastate our infrastructure, leaving homes, vehicles, and critical systems inoperable. This clip from episode 040 from The Resilient Show goes into the science behind EMPs, their components (E1, E2, E3), and real-life events like the Carrington Event and Hydro-Québec Storm.
Discover how EMP shielding, Faraday bags, and government policies aim to protect against these threats. Learn what steps we can take to secure our future and prevent catastrophe.
