As restaurants and grocery stores ran out of food and people fared without power for days, there seemed to be a rush of insanity throughout many areas of the greater Vancouver area.

And while I’m not proud of my carelessness and disregard for my own well-being, the whole ordeal has provided me with a nice refresher on emergency preparation.

So, I put together the World’s Best Essential Guide to Earthquake Prep for those of you, who like myself, could use a little refresher/motivation.
