FUND DRIVE SPECIAL – Pledge $200 and receive an emergency Solar / Crank Radio
Today we are joined by two experts In Bay Area earthquake science to understand how earthquakes occur, what our risks are, and what our options are for taking care of ourselves and our communities in the midst of the the potential crisis of a big earthquake coming. We also discuss the new Shake Alert system that can give enough warning to emergency responders and to the public through the free MyShake phone app to allow for basic resources to have room to flow.
FUND DRIVE SPECIAL – Pledge $320 2-Personal Emergency Kit: Because you never know when there will be an emergency situation, it’s wise to always be prepared. Keeping the Emergency Kit 2-person, 3-day backpack on hand at home, at school, or at the office can help you avoid being caught without necessary supplies. Each kit contains enough emergency supplies to sustain two people for three days. The three basic essentials, as recommended by the American Red Cross: food, water, and emergency blankets for shelter and warmth, are included in every handy backpack.
Our first guest is Andrew Alden, science writer and founder of a weekly blog on the geology of Oakland. He previously worked as the technical editor.
