With climate change leading to increased natural disasters and extreme weather events, it makes increasingly good sense to have a go-bag or disaster kit on hand for emergencies. The OkieDokie is a simply designed survival kit that is currently the subject of a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo.
The "super simple disaster kit" is a compact and cost-effective solution for those who don't want to live in fear, but also want to be prepared for potential catastrophes. The OkieDokie contains essential supplies including those recommended to have on hand by the Red Cross and FEMA. This includes food, first aid, a planning guide and more, all in a rugged waterproof bag. The well-designed collection is more convenient than putting one together yourself should a tornado, hurricane, earth quake or blizzard happen.
