BACKOUT IN EUROPE: The Austrian army announces a possible blac | ENTRE GUERRAS

BACKOUT IN EUROPE: The Austrian army announces a possible blackout in Europe within the next 5 years.

A blackout, "blackout" in English, would mean that traffic lights, computers, ATMs, telephones, internet and many other services would stop working, exposing the fragility of an increasingly digitized day-to-day.

The causes for a possible failure of the electrical system are many, from technical failures, overloads due to demand peaks, malfunctions in the system or even “extraterrestrial” causes: In 1989, millions of people were left in the dark in Québec (Canada) due to a virulent solar or geomagnetic storm. "

The question is not if there will be a big blackout, but when, ”said Defense Minister, the conservative Klaudia Tanner, who has overseen a series of maneuvers and awareness-raising initiatives about what she says is“ a real danger, but an underestimated one. ”.

As they say on their website: "It will probably be at least a day before a power supply is available in all parts of Austria. It is expected around a week for all of Europe. But that's not all. It will take several days more to get cell phones, landlines and the Internet back to work. Only then can the supply of basic necessities begin to spread again. "
