Drought has caused the Republic of the Marshall Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia to declare states of
emergency,
with some islands enacting water
rationing and having to have water shipped in.
Parents are already very familiar
with this concept, but bringing along
emergency rations on your travels, and replenishing your supply
with trusted items as you go, is the best way to be sure that you are not exposing yourself, or your children, to potentially contaminated foods when the dining options are limited, stomachs are growling, and patience is in short supply.
