Earthquake Disaster Preparedness

   Earthquake is one of the natural disasters that happens to mankind on this earth, its impact always have implications that negatively affect the families,  communities and the nation at large. This shaking of the surface of the earth resulting from sudden release of energy in the earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves. Currently when we all think about the earthquake in turkey, the implication of the earthquake has really affected the country, even in terms of business and the effect to the dead family and the living. Now l think that the best way to reduce the impact on earthquake and other disasters is to develop a unique global learning platform so that at the early stage even children will learn about the prevention side of any disaster before they occurs. There is a great responsibilities on governments across board to ensure that estate developers and builders are well supervised so that they can build credible homes and dams etc. that can stand the text of time, and meet international standards.

   There are so many earthquake happening yearly but we all must understand that the energy released is a critical factor in the kind of impact and devastation that it will have on buildings, schools and infrastructure in general. A very high magnitude earthquake can easily take thousands of life immediately. Governments should invest more on equipment's and machines so that the impact of the earthquake will not be too much irrespective of the magnitude. All families must educate their young children on earthquake especially in an earthquake prone locations so that they can prevent themselves from harm or injury. There should be a complete detail forecast to ensure future projections of earthquake to avoid or lower its impact.
