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:Photo of emergency supplies
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
Volcanoes erupt in different ways. Some, like Mount St. Helens, explode. Explosive eruptions are so powerful, they can shoot particles 20 miles up (32 kilometers), hurl 8-ton boulders more than a half mile (0.8 kilometers) away, and cause massive landslides. Explosive eruptions also create an avalanche of hot volcanic debris, ash, and gas that bulldozes everything in its path. Explosive volcanoes cause most of the volcano-related fatalities.
Volcanic eruptions can also be caused by an influx of magma in to an already full magma chamber which generates enough energy to cause it to escape from the earth’s crust. The strength of volcanic eruptions varies according to the thickness of the magma within the cone. The thicker the magma is, the stronger, more powerful the eruption is.
Volcanoes erupt because of density and pressure.
Our earth is made up of four main layers with a solid iron inner core lying at the heart which contains huge amount of pressure and energy.
