Despite all the technology we have these days, with the natural catastrophe that occurred in Japan a couple of days ago, nature shows us that it is still an unpredictable terrain unknown to man, and once again, we were exposed to a catastrophe with consequences that cannot yet be calculated.
Do you think global temperature and climate change had anything to do with this natural catastrophe?
At 2.46 pm local time, Japan suffered an earthquake of 8.9 on the Richter scale, which caused a tsunami of waves up to 10 meters high, the result, collapsed homes, entire cities devastated by water, fires and thousands of missing people.
The other problem is that the quake broke down the ventilation system at the Fukushima nuclear power plant, so the government had to declare a "nuclear emergency" and had to evacuate nearby cities.
So far the quanticos report that the coast of Japan moved more than 2 meters and the axis of the land moved a few centimeters. The movement of the plates has also put other Pacific territories on alert, such as Hawaii, Chile, Mexico, Peru, Nicaragua, the United States and other countries.
