The Arctic and Tropics, mountains and deserts, boreal forest and ocean – Each of these areas is characterized by its natural features, which determine the specificity of human life (behavior rules, ways of getting food and water, shelter construction, the nature of diseases and their prevention measures, way to travel around the area). The more severe environmental conditions, the shorter the autonomous existence, the greater the stress of battling with nature, the stricter rules of conduct must be carried out, the more expensive price, which is payable every mistake. On human activity strongly influenced by his will, determination, recollection, ingenuity, physical fitness, endurance. But these important qualities are sometimes insufficient for salvation. People are dying from the heat and thirst, without knowing, that in three steps is saving water source, frozen tundra, failing to build a shelter out of snow, die of hunger in the forest, where a lot of game, victims of venomous animals, not knowing, how to provide first aid at a sting.
