🌏 Japan’s Megaquake Threat: The Urgent Need for Disaster Preparedness 🌊 A recent government report warns that Japan could face economic losses of up to $1.81 trillion if a magnitude 9 earthquake strikes the Nankai Trough—a seismic zone with an 80% probability of producing a megaquake. The devastation could result in nearly 300,000 fatalities, massive tsunamis, and widespread infrastructure collapse. This stark warning underscores the importance of proactive disaster preparedness. Investing in resilient infrastructure, early warning systems, and risk mitigation strategies is crucial to minimizing human and economic losses. Around the world, disaster-prone regions must take decisive action to strengthen resilience before catastrophe strikes.
