Megaquake & Tsunami
REGIONALLY PLAUSIBLEMovement along major plate boundaries can produce destructive earthquakes and, offshore, dangerous tsunamis.
THE SCENARIO
What could happen?
Could megaquake & tsunami cause the end of the world? Movement along major plate boundaries can produce destructive earthquakes and, offshore, dangerous tsunamis. The exact effects would depend on location, scale, warning time, and the systems affected. This page separates the spectacular premise from preparations that are useful in ordinary emergencies too.
REALITY CHECK
Tectonic plates do not suddenly slide the whole crust at once, but major regional events are real.
THE USEFUL PLAN
Secure heavy objects, practice drop-cover-hold, map tsunami zones, and keep a go-bag.
