Survive a Disaster – Sachin Karpe


1. Remain composed
This may be apparent and you already know that you should relax when a natural calamity occurs. Some individuals act in hurry and hurt themselves and others in the process just because they are in anxiety. If you are relaxed and you think in a logical way, you have more possibilities of seeing through the disaster.

2. Shelter
Finding a refuge is a key factor to survival. In situation of a Twister or a tornado and other sorts of powerful wind flow, it is best to discover refuge underground or in basement. In situation of tremors, it is best to discover open areas without many buildings nearby. During floods and Tsunamis, it is best to go to locations with greater elevation, such as mountains.

3. Quick Thinking
Natural Calamities occur easily and you don't have a time to think. You need to think quickly and make the best choices. If you get caught in a building during an earth quake, you don't have a chance to run outside and it is better to discover secure locations in the building, such as under the desk. If there is a risk of overflow, you should switch off all the gas and power equipment.

4. Gather a Group and stay together

You have more possibilities of survival, if you remain together with other individuals. They can help you if you are hurt and protect you if you are immovable.

Different regions have different risks and one needs to know what kind of natural calamities are specific to a particular area.
