Why are some #earthquakes so destructive, while others just cause minor damage?

These 5 factors affect the impact: magnitude; depth; local geology; population density; construction quality.

This is on point. It's not a disaster or earthquake that kills people, but a poorly built building, a bad policy, insufficient resources, etc. that kill people. Injustice kills people. Lack of power kills people. We can change that! #ResilientHousing #HousingJustice @BuildChange

💡Know your hazards: Earthquake – Earthquakes killed nearly 750,000 people in 1994 – 2013, more than all other natural hazards combined.

The most effective way to manage earthquake risk is through building codes for earthquake safety.

“One lesson to be learned from past experiences of seismic events it is that, far more than quakes, poorly constructed buildings kill people. Governments must develop & enforce necessary building regulations to prevent possible massive loss of life.” https://t.co/HgK9F3OuAR
