How to use plastic bags in an emergency?
Plastic shopping bags are OK?
I have a lot of plastic bags that stores gave me!
Which plastic bags are good?
Plastic bags? You can find them easily in your home, right?
Nowadays, plastic bags are everywhere, and each person has at least one at home, maybe hiding in a drawer somewhere. What do you think?
But plastic bags don’t always have to be bags. What I mean by that is: we can use them as emergency tools, too. Believe it or not, some people buy new plastic bags for their emergency stockpile, but you don’t have to buy new ones. It’s OK to simply collect old, used ones. All you need to do is remember where your plastic bags are stashed in your home. Remember where you keep them, and keep in mind how to use them in an emergency.
What are plastic bags used for?
Carrying water / Water storage / Cold-weather gear / First aid / Sanitation / Cooking / Lantern / Rope / etc.

Remember, “Protect your life by yourself” （自分の命は自分で守る). You need to survive first, and then you need your emergency supply. No matter how well you prepared your emergency supplies, if you die, then all of your preparations will have been for nothing. First and foremost, keep your health up all the time. Build your stamina so that if you need to, you can evacuate as quickly as possible. Stay healthy.
