Here is an interesting video on government encouraging the population to be come preppers. Up to and above a level they sustained a long time during the cold war era of the late 1940s to 1970s, 80s or later. There experts are saying attack from Russia depends on two things. Preparation by the Russians. That Sweden can track. Intent, that is the unknown. Worth the watch I thought. Info, facts, details, thoughts, concerns

Yes.. A bit disconcerting at first that government would participate or lead in something practical and useful as this.
Once over that shock, frankly, a bit of envy at the majority of people who seem to be participating. Hard to assemble the words well to express this, but... Kind of an individual participation in a common issue, maybe not as a united group as such.
It would also seem, the farther you move from colder to warmer climates the less likely a national cooperation, participation like this can, or will work. Ever noticed that ??

Interesting to note from that video that Sweden has reinstated conscription as well as encouraging their citizens to become preppers.
