I wouldn't use the word altruist to describe this, but yes I do find the account moving.
Agreed. Thats either crazily prepared (tvtropes) or appropriately prepared and awesome to read.
I worked in a German civil service association for dealing with catastrophes, and what I saw there was a few centuries behind.
In Europe there is also some environmental protection interest that prevents the preparation of better dikes. It is all fine till the next disaster strikes. It is great to see a culture that values preparedness.
Not all of them are about altruism but a fair chunk of them are, and those were the ones I found the most relevant so I focused on them i guess.
