When it comes to preparing for the unexpected, few events offer the insights and expertise that Earth EX Live does. On December 19, 2024, from 11:00 AM to 12:15 PM EST, EIS Council is hosting a groundbreaking event that you can’t afford to miss.
This year’s Earth EX Live will be the first to combine a natural and human-caused Black Sky Event, offering a unique and invaluable opportunity to explore the challenges of extreme threats and how we can better prepare for them.
As the Solar Maximum peaks in 2024, the potential for a catastrophic Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) has never been higher. A strong CME could wreak havoc on critical infrastructure across continents. Imagine the cascading effects—power outages, communication failures, and supply chain disruptions.
But that’s not all. This year’s simulation takes it further by combining this natural disaster with a coordinated global cyberattack. The scenario will explore how these dual threats can amplify one another, challenging even the most prepared systems.
1. Expert Insights from Critical Sectors
Earth EX Live brings together leading experts from Emergency Management, Communications, and the Electric Sector to analyze the scenario and share their expertise. Learn from the best as they discuss strategies for mitigating risks and building resilience.
2. A Cutting-Edge Simulation
Experience a dynamic, interactive simulation enriched with video “injects” that mirror real-world crises. This isn’t just a hypothetical discussion—it’s a deep dive into the realities of large-scale disasters and the decisions experts face in the moment.
3. Global Engagement in Real-Time
Join a global audience of participants and get involved by submitting your questions during the event. EIS Council’s subject matter experts will answer in real time, creating an engaging and informative experience for all attendees.
Earth EX Live is tailored for anyone interested in building resilience against extreme events, including:

Earth EX Live isn’t just an event; it’s a call to action. As threats like CMEs and cyberattacks grow more likely and more severe, the need for preparedness has never been greater. This is your chance to gain the knowledge and tools to protect your organization, community, and future.
Join us for this critical conversation on December 19, 2024, at 11:00 AM EST.
Let’s face the challenges of tomorrow together, and start building a safer, more resilient world today.
We’ll see you there!
On 12 May 2017, hospital staff across England reached for patient records and found locked screens instead. The risk wasn’t new. Neither were many of the vulnerabilities exposed by the crises that followed. We have accumulated years of reports, inquiries, and recommendations on how to protect critical infrastructure. Yet the distance between identifying a risk […]
When temperatures rise, the first concern is usually public health. That is understandable. Extreme heat can put lives at risk, especially for older adults, outdoor workers, medically vulnerable communities, and people without reliable access to cooling. But heat also tests the systems behind daily life. Electric grids face higher cooling demand. Hospitals may see more […]
The FIFA World Cup is not just a global sports event. It is also a major test of the host-city infrastructure. When tens of thousands of fans move through stadiums, airports, transit systems, hotels, fan zones, and city streets, reliable electricity becomes essential to safety and continuity. Power supports much more than stadium lights. It […]
