Earthquakes, formidable natural phenomena resulting from tectonic plate movements, pose significant risks to Communities worldwide. However, through a combination of robust building codes, early warning systems, community preparedness efforts, seismic retrofitting, and strategic land-use planning, the impact of Earthquakes can be mitigated. By understanding the science behind earthquakes and implementing effective mitigation strategies, we can build more resilient communities and minimize the devastating consequences of seismic events.
