Emergencies can happen, sometimes with little or no warning and they can be scary. People under a lot of stress often don't think as clearly as usual and this affects decisions and reactions. One of the first steps to help you cope is building awareness and anticipation. So today, explore and think about how you and your communities are likely to feel, think and respond to an emergency as based on past events. Find out about the risks that matter to you where you live, work and travel. Don't be scared - be informed and get better prepared!
