The difficulty in predicting the occurrence, the scale and the level of destruction of a tsunami leaves escape as the only real credible option when mitigating the damages to human lives in the case of such disasters. There are technologies however such as the Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis (or DART II) system, which detect pressure changes on the seafloor in order to help predict and warn people of an impending tsunami. How can we help to regulate them?
