What precautions to take for a volcano eruption?

Answer 1

Most of the options are hard engineering which can cost a lot of money.

1. Create new holes/passages for the lava to flow through so you do not get a large explosion.

2. Scientific equipment to monitor activity of the volcano so you know when its going to erupt.

3. Have pre-evacuation plans in prosess so people know what to do in case of an eruption.

4. There is some kind of house/building material that is advised to use - not wood.

5. Don't live near a volcano especially if its a composite volcano - More pyroclastic flow and a more exsplosive eruption

Answer 2

some safety measures are:

1. In case your house is located with in a few kilometers of the volcano, you must evacuate it at once. You might like to take all your important belongings with you or may be just leave them there.

2. Earthquakes are one among quite normal occurrences with the active volcanoes. Instead of getting panicky, you must proceed towards some precautionary measures.

3. Remember in case some sudden rains occur near the volcanic crater, it leads to the abrupt mudflow. This mud often contains the pre-volcanic debris of eruption & hence is hot enough to hard boil the eggs. Hence, you must be ware else, you might have to suffer severe burns owing to the mudflow.

4. You must find for a sage shelter before the eruption as during the eruption the volcano emits with a lot of force the debris high up in the air. This would lead to falling rocks & small stones being emitted out from the crater.

5. During the volcanic eruption a lot of sulfur is emitted that can cause abnormal breathing or even choking. Be prepared with the gas masks much before the eruption in order to save yourselves from the foul odor and breathe normally.

6. You must avoid any & all contacts with the most crucial & sever emitted materials of the volcano that is lava. This composes the centerpiece of the volcano and contains burning hot mud that would instantly turn anything that comes in to its contact in to ashes.

7. Even after the eruption is over, you must wait for the volcanologists' advice regarding the safety and then proceed towards your homes.

8. In case you live near a volcano, instead of changing your address, just take some precautions and keep a watch on the indicators of eminent eruption.

Answer 3

During a volcano eruption, it is important to follow evacuation orders if given by authorities. Stay away from areas at risk of pyroclastic flows, lava flows, and lahars. Protect yourself from falling ash by staying indoors with windows and doors closed, and wearing masks if necessary.
