Eco-event #4-March

I woke up this morning to horrible news of a global disaster. Japan was hit with a massive 7.9 earthquake this morning and the whole country is in chaos. My prayers go out to the people of Japan and i hope everything gets solved soon. In addition, Hawaii was soon after hit with the same tsunami and news sources say the storm is on its way to California. The article i read was this one.

Reaction: To be honest, at first i thought my friend was joking around or stretching the truth when he told me Japan was crumbling. However, he wasn't joking nor stretching the truth, the country is literally in peril. I cant believe something like this could even happen and its scary to think that there is absolutely nothing we(humans) can do against something like this. Mother nature is the most powerful force in the world and its one thing our race hasn't been able to conquer. Its scary to think that one day an event like this can just all of the sudden happen to America, just like it did in Japan. Furthermore, what about the clean up? How long are people going to stay trapped under rubble?

I hope the country as a whole gets through the disaster and im praying rescue relief gets to the country soon.
