The document outlines the need for disaster resilience across various types of disasters, including industrial accidents, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, droughts, volcanic eruptions, landslides, and wildfires. It emphasizes the importance of preparedness, timely emergency response, and recovery plans to enhance community resilience to disasters. Key lessons include the necessity of early warning systems, understanding regional risks, and the importance of construction standards to mitigate the impacts of disasters.
Making Our World Disaster Resilient Is Our Legacy
- 1. MAKING OUR WORLD DISASTER RESILIENT “Good Success” Will be Our Legacy
- 2. DISASTER RESILIENCE HAS A VERY HIGH BENEFIT/COST 1 < BENEFIT/COST < 1000 THE PAYOFF IS GREATER SAFETY, SECURITY, HEALTH CARE, AND QUALITY OF LIFE FOR EVRYONE
- 3. AT PRESENT, OUR WORLD IS NOT DISASTER RESILIENT • INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENTS • FLOODS • SEVERE WINDSTORMS • EARTHQUAKES • TSUNAMIS
- 4. AT PRESENT, OUR WORLD IS NOT DISASTER RESILIENT • DROUGHTS • VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS • LANDSLIDES • WILDFIRES

- 6. A Routine Delivery of Gas to a Maternity Hospital in Mexico City Leads to a Deadly Explosion Killing 4 and Injuring Dozens January 29, 2015
- 7. ELEMENTS OF THE DISASTER • The explosion occurred when a gas tanker was making a routine, early morning delivery of gas to the hospital kitchen, and gas started to leak. • The tanker workers worked for 15 to 20 minutes to repair the leak while a large cloud of gas was forming, then exploded.
- 8. ELEMENTS OF THE DISASTER • The explosion sent up an enormous fireball and plumes of dust and smoke. • The Hospital caught fire and collapsed.
- 11. SMALL THIS TIME, BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE • The maternity hospital is located on the western edge of Mexico’s densely populated capital. • It is located in a middle class neighborhood, next to a school. • Miraculously, the hospital’s oxygen tanks were not affected by the explosion or fire.
