What to Do During an Earthquake

American Red Cross Guide 2 months ago

Description

If you feel the ground shake and see nearby objects move, it's likely you're experiencing an earthquake. Earthquakes happen because of the movement of the Earth's crust. When tectonic plates pull apart, slide past each other, or crash together, that causes an earthquake.

During an earthquake, it's important to drop under a sturdy piece of furniture, cover your head, and hold on as things move during the shaking.
