Steven Eberlein works for the American Red Cross Cascades Region — encouraging people to prepare for disasters, especially earthquakes. His experience of the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami left him grappling with this question: can a society adapt to a risk that it has never experienced before? He thinks so. His mission is to spark a preparedness movement in the Pacific Northwest that will save lives in the event of a Cascadia Subduction Zone 9M earthquake.
