Hello everyone friends, today I want to tell you about the earthquake.
- An earthquake is an underground tremor and vibration of the earth. Most often, earthquakes occur due to the movement of rocks.
During earthquakes, houses and roads collapse, also holes appear in the roads. There are many victims of people while earthquakes.
For example Great Chilean Earthquake that happened in May 22, 1960. It was very enormous and destructive. the magnitude was almost the maximum number of points, about 9.3.
During this terrible earthquake there was also a tsunami. About 6 thousand people died (most of them from the tsunami).
this is a very big value of victims, so it is necessary to know several rules to be safe during certain emergency situations. during an earthquake;
- do not panic
- go out of the facility ant take important documents
- do not use lift, go by stairs
- go far from the buildings, trees
- if you can't go out, stay in the corner,further from the windows
In russia earthquakes most often occur in altai, caucasus, far east. but you always need to be prepared for everything, so i recommend you to study the rules of conduct in all emergency situations! this can help very much.
Be careful, goodbye!
