Description

Making landfall five years ago today, Hurricane Harvey was one of the most destructive storms in American history, but its strength was not an aberration. It was a sign of things to come as the changing climate is creating more weather-related disasters and making storms, wildfires, and floods more dangerous.
That’s why it’s important to have plans for what to do during an emergency or disaster, both for yourself and your organization.
To learn more about creating effective plans, we spoke with the senior manager of emergency services for Best Friends, Sharon Hawa.
