When the siren goes... worth a listen


Radio New Zealand have been playing a series of broadcasts related to civil defence emergency management and natural hazards. I must confess it took me until the last episode to listen to one of these but it was actually quite good! The stories are entitled 'When the siren goes' and are divided into six episodes. Jerome Cvitanovich is the host who takes us through a series of hazards and interviews New Zealand's leading experts on hazard and emergency management as well as witnesses and survivors.

Episode 1 is an overview of hazards
Episode 2 is on earthquakes
Episode 3 is on volcanoes
Episode 4 is on tsunami
Episode 5 is on snow storms
Episode 6 is on floods

I encourage you to have a listen to this series. For those of you who like a little more action and pictures... check out this tornado video on You Tube.
