Earthquakes Are Real: How Preparation and Responsibility Can Save Lives

Post by : Bianca Haleem

Experts emphasize that while earthquakes remain an unavoidable natural phenomenon, their impact can be significantly reduced through careful planning and responsible action. Authorities stress the importance of conducting soil surveys, performing engineering calculations, and constructing earthquake-resistant buildings to mitigate potential damage.

“Earthquake awareness must be a year-round commitment, extending from homes to schools and workplaces,” said safety officials. They highlight that the focus should not be on assigning blame, but on learning from past events to create safer, more conscious communities.

Officials call on citizens and policymakers alike to make proactive choices today to ensure a stronger, safer tomorrow.
