Blog: Disaster Zone by Eric Holdeman

May 27, 2009

Clair Rubin, Editor at the Journal for Homeland Security and Emergency Management recommended the Disaster Zone blog. Check it out, seems to be a valuable resource.

“Disaster Zone is dedicated to sharing information about the world of emergency management and homeland security. There is a constant stream of new laws, plans, procedures, and technology solutions. Science is also being applied to studying human behavior and how we interact with one another and with all aspects of our environment. Taking advantage of science and applying it to how we perform our everyday functions is something we need to strive for. The Internet has enabled us to share information with one another more easily than ever before.” [More info]
