Communication and the Internet part 2

Communication is extremely important in a disaster because:

People need to know what is going on and when to evacuate.
They also need to know when to return to civilization
They need to know the condition of the disaster
They need the police or emergency services
Communication forms such as:
Phones to call 911 or emergency services
Television to warn people of disasters
This helps people to safety or making sure they aren't injured 




Safety procedures and planned evacuation routes can be created and organised before an emergency strikes. Drills beforehand can help this run smoothly

CPU
Screen
Keyboard
Microphone
Live Camera
Laptop
