DUTCHSINSE EARTHQUAKE PLAN<\/strong><\/h2>

(Notes below are taken from Dutchsinse videos. There are also your local government websites where you can find safety information and I would advise checking that as well, not just this website. Also charity websites also have a lot of useful information to help too..<\/p>

Please also note I still need to add more information on here but I thought it was urgent to publish this as soon as I could. )<\/p>

\u00a0<\/h3>

Before the Earthquake.<\/b><\/h3>

Think about your home or workplace building stability, material, contents and your emotions.<\/p>

BRICK and OLD STONE buildings need IMMEDIATE EVACUATION, but think about outside for falling objects.<\/p>

Think that a building with flexibility like wood will hold better.<\/p>

Think about hanging lights, fluorescent tube lighting and poorly fitted or worn out fixtures.<\/p>

Think about shelter, strong desks, reinforced perhaps? Think of your ceiling falling on your desk.<\/p>

Think of what will fall, wobble, or break?<\/p>

Think of televisions, shelving, glass, items on shelves.<\/p>

Think of pets, family, children and their education in earthquake preparation. Practise drills.<\/p>

Think about your protection if earthquake hits whilst you are asleep, have shoes ready nearby and any clothing needed that you can add to later with a SURVIVAL BAG.<\/p>

Unexpected size earthquake hits?<\/b><\/h3>

Is it unexpected? Or did you learn to forecast one using Dutchsinse methods?<\/p>

If so, then it should not be unexpected.<\/p>

What to do when earthquake hits?<\/b><\/h3>

Learn to control fear.<\/p>

Find shelter immediately.<\/p>

What do you think will fall, wobble, or break?<\/p>

Think of televisions, shelving, glass, items on shelves.<\/p>

Check the ceiling and walls whilst under shelter. Listen to sounds and judge size to decide on when to exit.<\/p>

Think about dry walls, drop ceiling tiles etc.<\/p>

Can your desk support parts of the ceiling?<\/p>

Keep away from stairways, doorways and lifts.<\/p>

Exiting building during an earthquake.<\/b><\/h3>

Take your SURVIVAL BAG (preferably with spare keys and phone inside) and exit.<\/p>

Think about falling objects outside, glass on the floor,<\/p>

What to do after the earthquake?<\/b><\/h3>

There could be wide range of answers depending on the size earthquake and how much damage there is. Each country is different and access to supplies vary from country to country.. Think about supplies and your ability to survive independently having them prepared or finding some afterwards.<\/p>

Think worst case scenarios like nuclear power stations nearby and wide spread damage.. Damaged dams or other events that could be longer term damage. Think about relocating.<\/p>

Think very carefully about preparing your SURVIVAL BAG and equipment.<\/p>

What to pack in a SURVIVAL\/EMERGENCY KIT\/BAG?<\/b><\/h3>

Try keep the bag light for others to carry. Not just your strong self!<\/p>

Also think of longer term survival if you live in vulnerable locations or any kind of emergency that involves not having a house for a few weeks to months.<\/p>

Here is an example of Dutchsinse\u2019s own survival bag. You do not have to copy him but this will be enough to help you think of what you might need depending where you live and supplies that can be difficult for you to get.<\/p>

Bag contents which including evacuation during the night:<\/p>

Underwear<\/p>

Shoes<\/p>

Belt<\/p>

T-shirt<\/p>

Toothbrush<\/p>

Scissors<\/p>

First aid<\/p>

Toothpicks or floss<\/p>

Seeds, peas, carrot other vegetables.<\/p>

X2 compasses<\/p>

Passports old and new. ID cards.<\/p>

Insurance documents (car and house).<\/p>

Pure silver to sell<\/p>

Foreign currency<\/p>

Lighter<\/p>

x2 Hand torches<\/p>

x2 Head torches<\/p>

Multi-tool<\/p>

Pen light<\/p>

Pen knife<\/p>

Razor<\/p>

Think about Self defence<\/p>

Spare keys (car and house)<\/p>

Nail clippers<\/p>

NOAA hand wind radio for weather checks and news<\/p>

Survival handbook<\/p>

Strike flint lighters in watertight sealed packaging.<\/p>

Solar charger for AA & AAA batteries<\/p>

Converter plugs<\/p>

Car adapter to convert to house plug<\/p>

Shoelaces<\/p>

Iodine to prevent radiation poisoning for short term.<\/p>

Metal empty drink bottle<\/p>

SURVIVAL KIT FOR OVERNIGHT TO SEVERAL DAYS OR WEEKS (I will type this up soon!)<\/strong><\/h3>

Again this can vary in your country depending on access to supplies and shops. Think about looting and theft and your safety. Have some of these items for basic survival.. Look out for charities that can help with water and other items that could be too expensive to get or produce yourself.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
