Slowly we hear a variety of volcanic disasters in Indonesia. has
occurred in one of the volcanoes in West Sumatra. cause of that, Standing in front of you all, on this opportunity I would like to deliver my speech about ways and tips to face the volcano eruption.

You can do many things to protect yourself and your family from the dangers a volcanic eruption can cause. The best way to protect yourself and your family is to follow the advice of local officials. Local authorities will give you information on how to prepare for a volcanic eruption, and if necessary, on how to evacuate (leave the area) or take shelter where you are.

How to prepare
Be prepared either to shelter or to evacuate. Develop an evacuation plan and a sheltering plan for yourself, your family, and others in your household. Review the plans and make sure that everyone understands them. If you haven’t already done so, put together an emergency supply kit. Supplies should include the following:

·         Flashlight and extra batteries

·         First aid kit and manual

·         Emergency food and water

·         Manual (nonelectric) can opener

·         Essential medicines

·         Sturdy shoes

·         Respiratory (breathing) protection

·         Eye protection (goggles)

·         Battery-powered radio

Exposure to ash can harm your health, particularly the respiratory (breathing) tract. To protect yourself while you are outdoors or while you are cleaning up ash that has gotten indoors, use an N-95 disposable respirator (also known as an “air purifying respirator”). N-95 respirators can be purchased at businesses such as hardware stores. It is important to follow directions for proper use of this respirator. For more information, see NIOSH-Approved Disposable Particulate Respirators (Filtering Facepieces) . If you don’t have an N-95 respirator, you can protect yourself by using a nuisance dust mask as a last resort, but you should stay outdoors for only short periods while dust is falling. Nuisance dust masks can provide comfort and relief from exposure to relatively non-hazardous contaminants such as pollen, but they do not offer as much protection as an N-95 respirator. Cleanup or emergency workers may need a different type of breathing protection. Listen for disaster sirens and warning signals.

·         Review your emergency plan and gather your emergency supplies. Be sure to pack at least a 1-week supply of prescription medications.

·         Prepare an emergency kit for your vehicle with food, flares, booster cables, maps, tools, a first aid kit, a fire extinguisher, sleeping bags, a flashlight, batteries, etc.

·         Fill your vehicle’s gas tank.

·         If no vehicle is available, make arrangements with friends or family for transportation, or follow authorities’ instructions on where to obtain transportation.

·         Place vehicles under cover, if at all possible.

·         Put livestock in an enclosed area. Plan ahead to take pets with you, but be aware that many emergency shelters cannot accept animals.

·         Fill your clean water containers.

·         Fill sinks and bathtubs with water as an extra supply for washing.

·         Adjust the thermostat on refrigerators and freezers to the coolest possible temperature. If the power goes out, food will stay cooler longer.As you evacuate

·         Take only essential items with you, including at least a 1-week supply of prescription medications.

·         If you have time, turn off the gas, electricity, and water.

·         Disconnect appliances to reduce the likelihood of electrical shock when power is restored.
