Welcome to ProjectArcix!

The Indian Ocean Tsunami devastated South East Asia. Terrorists hijacked airliners that crashed into the World Trade Center. The Janjaweeds massacred the Sudanese. The SARS pandemic broke out globally.

Without regard for nationality, skin color or language, disasters have killed millions and affected even more. Their impact is not limited to the direct region of action, but worldwide, through business partnerships, family relations and political entities.

After the rash of recent incidents, some generalize disasters as immitigable killers. These occurrences, while seemingly chaotic, can be predicted to a certain degree. Accordingly, measures can be taken on both governmental and individual levels to mitigate their harms.

A perusal of this website will present you with information to protect not only yourself, but also your family should disaster strike. Familiarize yourself with warning signs, possible consequences and geographic factors with the background information provided. Evaluate what measures your government and protective agencies should be using in critical scenarios. Learn the effective responses you can take. Read through the case studies and view the graphic renderings of past disasters. We believe that we can proactively engage in an effort to create a safer world. Thus, we began ProjectArcix. Please avail yourself of these resources and should the time come, prepare your-self for the unpredictable.
