Get Ready It's Happening: Surviving Gaia's Changes was designed for those who want to understand the most common emergencies and catastrophes caused by natural phenomena or human activities. Natural calamities can, in fact, strike at any time and this can be said with certainty, because those of us who already completed their first half-century of age, have personally experienced many of these events in their lifetime. Situations are not to be ignored or overlooked, Gaia rarely bother to warn us when going to release heavy rains or incredible hurricanes, shocking earthquakes, lightning storms or historical volcanic eruptions. She goes on her way and we are transported. The long list of recent tornadoes, tsunamis, avalanches and earthquakes around the world is a sobering reminder for all and all of us never to take nature for granted and to always know what to do in case Gaia, for reasons of its own, is ready to strike again. We should look for the specific steps to be taken to prepare ourselves, our families, friends and acquaintances if a huge event, natural or artificial happen. Never take lightly any natural upheavals, never consider them with the fatality and cynicism of the inevitable, irreparable eventualities to which we can only helplessly surrender; they manifest and we must be ready and willing to limit or even prevent any damage, thanks to the experience acquired by our species. When we actually prepare ourselves as well as possible, we ride the so-called disasters, and this is what Gaia wants. She wants us to learn to know her. This book is the result of joint effort of consciousness to remain awake, alert and ready. It is a specialized research to be shared; to make sure that even in the most intense scenes, the ones we love, and our fellowmen in toto, are safe, and damages scarce or limited to the very minimum.
