Earthquakes can happen at any time. Disasters often strike when we least expect them.
That's why it's important to be aware of disaster prevention on a daily basis and make the necessary preparations.
So this time, we've asked Snow Miku, the character who supports Hokkaido, and Rabbit Yukine, Director of the Domingo Planning Department, to teach us some easy "Disaster Preparedness Tips" you can do right now!
Let's take this opportunity to review our safety measures to protect our loved ones and ourselves!
Use tools like "L-shaped brackets" and "tension rods" to securely fasten large furniture and prevent dishes from scattering.
Arrange large furniture so that it won't block beds or exits if it topples over. This can also prevent injuries from falling books and other objects.
It is said that one person needs 3 liters of water per day. It's a good idea to have at least a three-day supply of water for the entire family.
Make a habit of the "rolling stock" method, a cycle of "stocking up a little extra food" → "eating it in your daily life" → "buying more to replace what you ate."
Keep emergency food and a flashlight in an "emergency kit" so you can evacuate quickly in case of an emergency. Also, make sure everyone in the family knows where it is stored.
When power is restored after an outage, electricity flowing to broken appliances can cause a fire. Be sure to turn off the circuit breaker before you go to a shelter.
Shut off the main gas valve to prevent explosions from gas leaks when the gas supply is restored. Also, always check for gas leaks before using gas after an earthquake.
You never know when a disaster will strike. Let's make sure we are well-prepared in advance so we can act calmly when a disaster occurs.
We have also prepared a poster that shows the "Learn About Disaster Preparedness with Snow Miku & Yukine!" tips introduced in this article at a glance! Download it from the image below and post it nearby so you can check it anytime!
