Disaster Warning Network

The Disaster Warning Network has been created simply because it is time to take serious action to reduce unnecessary deaths, injuries, and property losses due to disasters. As a society, we have all of the technology and communication tools necessary to accomplish this goal. Modern society has responded well to the threat of fires in our homes, offices, and public facilities. We understand the benefits of early warnings and how a combination of human and automated responses can save our lives and reduce damage to our property. To protect ourselves against smoke and fire we install sensors, detectors, analyzers, and a wide variety of warning and safety mechanisms in all of our structures. These systems provide early warning alarms and provide a wide range of automated actions such as opening emergency doors, calling 911, turning on smoke venting systems, and turning on emergency lighting. The beneficial effects of these actions are clearly seen by all. The same type of technology tools are available to us today to provide effective early warnings to protect against the ravages of disasters.
