What is Earthquake?

A sudden and violent shaking of the ground, sometimes causing great

destruction, as a result of movements within the earth's crust or volcanic
action.

PREVENTION
• Know your risk. Find out if you live near an active fault line and
whether or not the ground around you is more susceptible to the
effects of an earthquake.

If you are in your Vehicle :

Slow down until you can safely pull over and stop. If you're on the freeway,
take the first exit that's safe and avoid parking near overpasses, big trees,
power lines, bridges, and buildings. Stay in your vehicle with your seat belt
on until the earthquake is over.
What Should I Do Before, During, And After An Earthquake?

Before :

• Make sure you have a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, a battery-powered
radio, a flashlight, and extra batteries at home.
• Learn first aid.
• Learn how to turn off the gas, water, and electricity.
• Make up a plan of where to meet your family after an earthquake.
• Don't leave heavy objects on shelves (they'll fall during a quake).
• Anchor heavy furniture, cupboards, and appliances to the walls or
floor.
• Learn the earthquake plan at your school or workplace.
 During :
• Stay calm! If you're indoors, stay inside. If you're outside, stay outside.
• If you're indoors, stand against a wall near the center of the building,
stand in a doorway, or crawl under heavy furniture (a desk or table).
Stay away from windows and outside doors.
• If you're outdoors, stay in the open away from power lines or anything
that might fall. Stay away from buildings (stuff might fall off the building
or the building could fall on you).
• Don't use matches, candles, or any flame. Broken gas lines and fire don't mix.
• If you're in a car, stop the car and stay inside the car until the earthquake stops.
• Don't use elevators (they'll probably get stuck anyway).
After :

• Check yourself and others for injuries. Provide first aid for anyone who needs it.
• Check water, gas, and electric lines for damage. If any are damaged, shut off
the valves. Check for the smell of gas. If you smell it, open all the windows and
doors, leave immediately, and report it to the authorities (use someone else's
phone).
• Turn on the radio. Don't use the phone unless it's an emergency.
• Stay out of damaged buildings.
• Be careful around broken glass and debris. Wear boots or sturdy shoes to
keep from cutting your feet.
• Be careful of chimneys (they may fall on you).
• Stay away from damaged areas.
• If you're at school or work, follow the emergency plan or the
instructions of the person in charge.
• Expect aftershocks.
What is Landslide?

A landslide is defined as the movement of a mass of rock, debris, or earth

down a slope. Landslide a type of "mass wasting," which denotes any down-
slope movement of soil and rock under the direct influence of gravity.

Prevention
Trees, plants, and roots help hold the soil in place as they shield the topsoil
from the force of the rain. Planting and water diversion are the best
methods to help prevent landslide. Appropriate planting is a good way to
protect a hillside, but allow time for roots to reach the most beneficial
depth.
Before :
• The key to staying safe is to prepare and to have an emergency
plan in place.
• Find out if you live in an area where landslides could potentially happen.
Landslides may also be referred to as mudslides, debris flows, mudflows or
debris avalanches.
• Listen to local news and weather reports for any potential landslide
watches and warnings in your area.
• Talk with your family and neighbours about what you would do during a
landslide. Identify a safe place to gather.
• Become familiar with the land around where you live and work so that
you understand your risk in different situations.
• Watch the patterns of storm water drainage on slopes near your home,
especially where runoff water converges.
During :

• Be prepared to evacuate at a moment’s notice.

• If you suspect imminent danger evacuate immediately. Inform affected
neighbours if you can, and contact your public works, fire or police
department.
• Listen for unusual sounds that might indicate moving debris, such as
trees cracking or boulders knocking together.

If indoors:

• Find cover in the part of the building that is the furthest from the
approaching landslide.
• Take shelter under a strong table or a bench.
• Hold on firmly and stay put until all movement has stopped.
If outdoors :

Move quickly away from its likely path, keeping clear of embankments, trees, power
lines and poles.
Stay away from the landslide area. The slope may experience additional failures for
hours to days afterwards.

If you are in your car :

Watch for collapsed pavement, mud, fallen rocks and other indications of possible
debris flow.
After :
• Listen to the radio, watch your local news channels, and/or follow your local news
outlet and/or emergency officials on social media for further instructions from
officials and local leaders.
• Stay away from the slide area until local officials say it is safe to enter.
• Look for and report broken utility lines to appropriate authorities. Reporting
potential hazards will get the utilities turned off as quickly as possible, preventing
further hazard and injury.
• Check your home’s foundation, chimney and surrounding land for damage.
• Replant damaged ground as soon as possible because erosion caused by
loss of ground cover can lead to flash flooding.
• If you suspect your home is unsafe, do not enter. Rely on the professionals
to clear your home for re-entry, if you are unsure.
What is Deforestation?

Deforestation is when forests are destroyed by cutting trees (logging) and not
replanting them. Sometimes deforestation happens when people change lands
into farms, ranches and cities. The most common cause for deforestation is
obtaining

Why should we stop deforestation?

Keeping forests intact also helps prevent floods and drought by regulating
regional rainfall. And because many indigenous and forest peoples rely on
tropical forests for their livelihoods, investments in reducing
deforestation provide them with the resources they need for sustainable
development without deforestation.
So what can you do about deforestation?
One easy way to combat deforestation is to plant a tree. But you can
take it one step further by making sure the choices you make at home, at
the store, at work, and on the menu don’t contribute to the
problem. Here’s what you can do about deforestation.

1.Plant a tree.
2.Go paperless.
3.Recycle and buy recycled products.
4.Eat vegetarian meals as often as possible.
What is Flood?
Many of us have this idea that floods (or flooding) is simply, too much water
around your house. People think that can be fun. Wrong. Flooding is a lot more
than that.Flooding is extremely dangerous and has the potential to wipe away an
entire city, coastline or area, and cause extensive damage to life and property. It
also has great erosive power and can be extremely destructive, even if it is a foot
high. It is a natural event or occurrence where a piece of land (or area) that is
usually dry land, suddenly gets submerged under water. Some floods can occur
suddenly and recede quickly. Others take days or even months to build and
discharge.

What is the cause of flooding?

Flooding occurs most commonly from heavy rainfall when natural
watercourses do not have the capacity to carry excess water. ... In coastal
areas, water inundation can be caused by a storm surge as a result of a
tropical cyclone, a tsunami or a high tide coinciding with higher than normal
river levels.
Prevention

Retaining walls
In some places, retaining walls levees, lakes, dams, reservoirs or
retention ponds have been constructed to hold extra water during
times of flooding.
Town planning
It is important that builders acquire permission before buildings are erected.
This will ensure that waterways are not blocked. Also, drainage systems must
be covered and kept free from objects that chock them. This way, water can
quickly run through if it rains and minimize any chance of town flooding.
Drainage systems should also be covered to prevent litter from getting into
them.
Detention basin
These are small reservoirs built and connected to waterways. They provide a
temporary storage for floodwaters. This means in an event of flooding,
water is drained into the basin first, giving people more time to evacuate. It
can also reduce the magnitude of downstream flooding.
Before a Flood :
• Avoid building in a flood-prone area unless you elevate and reinforce your home.
• Elevate the furnace, water heater, and electric panel if susceptible to flooding.
• Install “check valves” in sewer traps to prevent water from backing up into the
drains of your home.
• Contact community officials to find out if they are planning to construct
barriers (levees, beams, floodwalls) to stop water from entering the homes in
your area.
• Seal the walls in your basement with waterproofing compounds
to avoid seepage.

During a Flood:
• Listen to the radio or television for information.
• Be aware that flash flooding can occur. If there is any possibility of that in your
area, move immediately to higher ground. Do not wait for instructions to move.
• Be aware of streams, drainage channels, canyons, and other areas known to flood
suddenly. Flash floods can occur in these areas with or without such typical
warnings as rain clouds or heavy rain.
If you must prepare to evacuate, you should do the following:
• Secure your home. If you have time, bring in outdoor furniture. Move
essential items to an upper floor.
• Turn off utilities at the main switches or valves if instructed to do so.
Disconnect electrical appliances. Do not touch electrical equipment if you
are wet or standing in water.
• If you have to leave your home, remember these evacuation tips:
• Do not walk through moving water.
• Do not drive into flooded areas. If flood waters rise around your car,
abandon the car and move to higher ground if you can do so safely.
You and the vehicle can be quickly swept away.
After a Flood :
• Listen for news reports to learn whether the community’s water supply is safe
to drink.
• Avoid flood waters; water may be contaminated by oil, gasoline, or raw sewage.
Water may also be electrically charged from underground or downed power
lines.
• Avoid moving water.
• Stay away from downed power lines.
• Return home only when authorities indicate it is safe.
