102. How to Prepare for a Natural Disaster with Brad Greer

We talk a lot about how we impact the environment on this show, but what about how the natural world impacts us?

It is no secret that climate change has upped the ante regarding extreme weather events and natural disasters. This summer alone, I have experienced some of the effects of wildfires in the PNW. There have been countless hurricanes, and in all of these situations, people and homes are lost.

That’s why, in episode 102 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we provide resources to prepare you for natural disasters and other emergencies. September is National Preparedness Month, and today’s guest will ensure we’re ready, no matter the emergency.

Brad Greer has over 20 years of experience in health care, cybersecurity, identity theft, law, litigation, insurance, and government affairs. Greer and five others helped start up the United States’ leading identity theft protection company, LifeLock, in 2005. He served as the primary interface for the Company on legislative, administrative, and regulatory issues with state and federal government.

Greer is the CEO of DrySee. DrySee is a worldwide, patented technology involving a waterproof, breathable liquid indicating bandage. The latest rendition of the device addresses a very large market opportunity with a waterproof covering, a water invasion indicator near the edge and center of the bandage with cost-effective materials that ensure maximum profitability and multiple patient benefits from a disposable bandage.
