Do Human Leaders Need Submarine Underground Bases in Case of Massive Solar Storms?

Someday, perhaps 4.
5 billion years in the future, our Sun will expand, engulfing the Earth, and then it will recede into what we call a white dwarf.
When it does expand it will boil our oceans, and prevent any type of current life from growing on the surface of the planet.
Now then, it has been estimated that in human history there have been cycles where the Earth has experienced excessive heat from the sun.
In 1805 there was a period where there was incredible electromagnetic energy, and it is postulated that this came from intensive solar flares.
It was a time when the aurora borealis was experienced in lower latitudes, and it disrupted human civilizations.
But this is nothing compared to what it could do today if we had massive solar flares which took out all of our power grid, all of our satellites, and the electromagnetic energy took out all of our computer systems.
Modern-day automobiles have a lot of electronics in them, so do household appliances.
Indeed pretty much nothing would work.
Consider if you will that the water company uses computers to run its systems, and same with the gas company lines.
You would have no utilities, no television, nothing.
Are you beginning to see the point? What if things got so hot that the crops died, there was no food supply, and civilization as we know it was so disrupted that there were giant riots in the streets, although they would be short lived in duration due to the sunburns of the participants.
Everything would break down in our society, in the event of massive solar storms of this magnitude.
So I ask the question; are the leaders of our great nations of planet Earth ready for such an event? They should be.
Indeed perhaps we need underground submarine bases to allow the leaders to get from one place to another traveling under the ocean.
And, from there they could go through tunnels and underground bases to keep some semblance of continuity in human civilizations.
Indeed, it is my hope that you will please consider all this.
