What is the most important survival tool should you become lost?
The compass will tell you which direction north is. The compass also shows how far you have traveled from your starting point. The compass will not always point you in the right direction if there are mountains nearby. If you are on a flat plain, however, the compass will most likely give you all you need.
A compass is not necessary if you do not have one. You can use an object like a rock, tree or other solid for guidance. While you will still need to find a landmark by which to guide you, it is at least possible to know the direction of north.

How to purify water in emergency situations
The most important task in natural disasters is to purify drinking water. Filtration, disinfection, storage are all part of the process to purify drinking water. Drinking clean water has saved many lives during emergencies. It can also help people recover faster from disasters.
Purified water should always remain out of direct sunlight. Purified water should be stored in a container that does not contain oxygen. Plastic bags and bottles are good alternatives if you don't have enough containers. Keep the water chilled at 4°C (40°F). Avoid freezing as ice crystals can form in the water.
These steps are important when purifying water:
-
Boil water until it boils dry. You can strain the boiling water by placing it through a strainer to remove any impurities.
-
To every 2 gallons, add one teaspoon of the iodine. Before adding the iodine to the mixture, whisk it well.
-
Keep the water in an airtight container. Keep the water refrigerated for not more than three days.
-
You should label the container with the date, type and amount of water.
-
Be sure to ensure safe water supply!
