CalAlert
Envisioning a universal Emergency Alert System for the State of California
CalAlert
CalAlert is a consolidated emergency alert and response system. This system allows residents and visitors to California to view information from multiple verified state and federal agencies and local, crowdsourced information. This system allows local municipalities, police, fire, and other emergency response organizations to push information with little to no overhead.
The climate crisis is the existential threat we will all face in the upcoming decades. In 2020 alone over 4 million acres burned in California. Fires, hurricanes, and floods are only going to get worse, so we must build accessible platforms and communications infrastructure to warn people of danger.
