Earthquake near the Kermadec Islands a reminder
We’re hearing a lot in the news media about earthquakes right now, from the ‘ghost quakes’ following the earthquake near the Kermadec Islands, to more information about the Alpine Fault.
Rather than being overwhelmed by this information, use it as a reminder to review your emergency plans. Think about how you and your family can prepare to look after yourselves (and your pets) for up to 7 days.
It’s also useful to check that information is from a reliable source before you share it; for example, from Geonet or the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management.
