I see that you mentioned no images, but I feel that images would make it easier for quickly locating information. You can probably use some basic svg files to keep the file size small. E.g. a simple design of a building shaking to represent an earthquake.
Right now, I am seeing a flood of text that I have to carefully read. I don't think emoji's would help, because they can be more subject to interpretation. And the quality of the design varies based on the device's emoji font.
But it is an interesting concept. Maybe add a small note about bookmarking the page?
I think what he is saying is adding simple svg icons, not images.
For instance this one
https://www.svgrepo.com/svg/308550/earthquake-damage-earthqu... is 700 bytes, and it can most likely be simplified and compressed.
(you can also lazy load them so they don't delay the content)
