- As earthquakes have struck around the world with alarming frequency, millions have realized they are unprepared for similar catastrophes close to home. Online disaster plans and older books-heavy with seismic science and a survivalist focus-leave the average reader overwhelmed with details and anxiety. How much water will I need? What if I'm driving? How do I protect my six-year-old? The questions go on-and in this book Maggie Mooney answers them. Her four-week readiness program includes straightforward instructions, forms, and checklists. Mooney explains what to expect during a quake, and what to do when the shaking stops. She also addresses both aftershocks and tsunamis.Use this guide and the checklists inside to get ready:Find your safe spots at home, at work, at school, and outdoors.Develop your emergency communication plan.Shake-proof your home.Assemble emergency supplies. By following the steps in the four-week readiness program described here you can avoid injury and ensure you have the food, water and other essentials you need to be prepared rather than scared.
