Alice Lake-Hammond of @AlpineFault8 presents the AF8 Roadshow: "When you have a hazard that will effect everyone, you need conversations to happen at every level of society. By taking science out to communities & giving it local context we make it relevant to them."
New Zealanders are great at coming together to support each other in an emergency. We’re encouraging people to have these conversations in advance, so we can be better prepared for a future Alpine Fault quake – https://t.co/kCWVqfahy8
Thanks @EQCNZ@EmergencyWC@boswellryan
Great to be back in Greymouth tonight - to make up for our postponed event earlier in the year - another full house! Thanks to all who braved the cold to find out about the Alpine Fault and how we can be better prepared @EQCNZ@EmergencyWC@ResilienceNSC@QuakeCoRE@papierplane
@Aotearoa_uNZipd @AlpineFault8@EmergencyWC@EQCNZ Probably! I’m sure your recent work helped put it on the radar 🙂 and given the turn out I’m also sure there will be a next time - there’s a definitely a healthy appetite for info!
Another great turn out tonight at the Kokatahi Hall for the #AF8Roadshow with @papierplane@emergencywc - we had to move into the gym area to fit everyone in! Awesome to see so many keen to hear about the Alpine Fault and what we can all do to be better prepared 😍
@EQCNZ
The next #AlpineFault earthquake is even more likely to happen within the lifetime of most NZders
And there’s lots we can do to help each other be better prepared

@Continibites@JamesMelville Sometimes it feels like we live in another universe... politically, socially, economically... Thinking of you all and looking forward to when we can visit again 🇳🇿❤️🏴
Do you take your preparedness on holiday with you?
Earthquakes don't take holidays, so it's a good idea to think about what you could do to be better prepared while you're away from home.
