California’s emergency office navigates through the earthquake-prone areas of the state to remember two key points: – Earthquakes are unpredictable – Almost the entire territory of the state is a geological fault that is in constant motion.
“If you live in California, you should be prepared for an earthquake 365 days,” Gustavo Ortiz, a representative for the California government’s Office of Emergency Services, told Univision Los Angeles during a simulation of an earthquake on the 3-7 Richter scale. that you will see in this video.

The campaign is not to prevent earthquakes as these phenomena cannot be prevented or predicted. The aim is to educate about the risks involved in living on different geological faults that can move at any time and how to respond to an emergency.

Why is the earth moving in California? In the golden state, earthquakes are caused by the movement of huge masses of the Earth’s crust (tectonic plates).

In the state of California, about 300 geological faults have been discovered, but only four of them are considered to be at a greater risk of being the epicenter of a large earthquake or the so-called “big earthquake”. We tell you why.
In Southern California lies the dividing line between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. These plates are large portions of the Earth’s crust that move horizontally. The North American plate extends to the east, while the Pacific plate extends to the west, toward Japan.

Approximately two-thirds of the annual movements of the Pacific plate occur on the San Andreas fault and some parallel faults – the San Jacinto, Elsinore and Imperial faults.

These four fault lines are among the fastest moving and therefore the most dangerous in Southern California. Over time, these four faults produce about half of the major tremors in our area.

The “Grand Bend” is the area where the San Andreas Fault bends to the west, in the San Bernardino Mountains, and where all four faults connect.
