Hazard Preparedness
Avoid Overexertion
Prevent dangerous fatigue and poor decision-making in arctic conditions by conserving energy. Move at a steady pace, avoid sudden exertion, monitor your body’s signals, and take frequent rest breaks in sheltered locations.
- Pace yourself during physical activity; avoid sudden, intense exertion which rapidly depletes energy and increases sweating (leading to chill).
- Monitor your body for signs of fatigue, shivering, or excessive sweating; stop and rest *before* exhaustion sets in.
- Take frequent, short breaks in sheltered areas (behind snowdrifts, trees, or structures) to rest, hydrate, and check gear.
Create an Earthquake Preparedness Plan
Prepare your household for an earthquake by creating a specific plan. Identify safe spots in each room, establish meeting places (near and far), outline communication strategies, and share the plan with all members.
- Identify safe spots in each room (under sturdy tables/desks, against interior walls away from windows/heavy objects).
- Determine primary and secondary exit routes from your home.
- Establish safe meeting places: one near home, one outside the neighborhood.
