Introduction
Many of us take for granted the essential services we rely upon every day. When we wake up in the morning, we use water and electricity to get ready for the day. We use fuel and energy to transport us where we need to go. We drive on the roads and bridges that connect us from our homes to our places of business or school. We shop at businesses that provide us the goods and services we need on a day-to-day basis. We visit medical providers and clinics to keep us healthy. And we benefit from response related providers that help restore outages and clean up hazardous conditions. Create a 2-3 page essay with your reflections about the importance of business continuity and critical infrastructure.
