Natural Disasters

[Redoverfarm]

Is it just me or does it seem there are more natural diasters than there were a couple years back. Someone had told me once that we just didn't hear about them before.   I realize that the age of technology brings more things to life but we really haven't come that far as it concerns the media and the reporting of incidents.   Could it be that the media is now allowed in some countries that were protected from the media before and the news just never made it across the border.  Or is it age when you start thinking about your own longivity and listen to stories that never hit home before.  Any answers?  I guess we could blame this one on "Global Warming" huh.

...or possibly un-natural disasters?  hmm

The below is information only -- I'm not saying who can do what but they won't tell us if they can.  Have a look.

People above government are feeling a bit crowded by the useless eaters.



Kinda gives ya the feel good all over feelin'.

Katrina was likely assisted the next day.

Mysterious vibrations have appeared in the ground in earthquake zones.  Assistance?

Didn't like or agree with some of the previous stuff I linked -- here's something better.



    "Others are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves. So there are plenty of ingenious minds out there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon other nations. It's real, and that's the reason why we have to intensify our efforts, and that's why this is so important."

Nature as a Weapon

Personally I believe it's all a matter of perception. Combine better detection technology and greater world wide populations and we get reports on every hiccup in the 'natural' system and the likelihood of more injuries and property damage when something does happen.

We can detect hurricanes by satellites; hurricanes far out to sea. If one turns and dissipates in a non populated area it used to be that we never even heard of it. Same for tornadoes. We now detect tornadoes that dissipate out in the middle of nowhere, causing no one any threat. Years ago only the local gophers would have known about it. A 1925 tornado in the Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana area killed 695 people. It is considered to be the worst tornado in American history. Wonder what would happen today?

The year 2005 did record the most number of storms (22) and most hurricanes (12) on record. But the year 1931 recorded 21 storms and 10 hurricanes. If we had todays detection technology in 1931 the record would quite likely contained an extra hurricane or two. The 1940's is the worst decade for hurricanes recorded.

Florida has some 13+ million people today. In the 1920's there were only 500,000. When a hurricane makes landfall there today anyone should be able to understand that the damages are certainly going to be more severe today than in the 1920's. This applies worldwide including places like Myanmar and China I'm sure.

The USGS does report a slight increase in the number of earthquakes in the last decade. However, they put that down to more sensitive equipment and more of it. In 1930 there were only about 350 seismic stations worldwide. Today there are over 8000. I have previously read that China is undergoing a great shift in population from rural to urban areas just like the US has seen happen over a hundred years. That may have had some effect in deaths in the recent big quake there.

Also a hundred years ago the news of a huge disaster as an earthquake, typhoon, or whatever in Pakistan, China or someplace distant would not have been reported here until a couple weeks after the fact. And it would have only rated a paragraph or two in the major newspapers. Now we are instantly inundated with  program interruptions and hours of live and recorded video, sometimes even video of the event itself unfolding.

Anyhow that's my perception; the world has shrunk.

In a similar vein, albeit a little off the topic, I believe the same instant news ability is what drives the general perception that everything is worse today than it was a couple decades ago. Any bad news from any corner of our country is instantly broadcast to the millions in the TV and radio audience. You and I in our local little worlds are blasted with news of any natural or man made disaster, hostage situation or shooting of more than two people at a time. Years ago many of those news stories did not make it out beyond state lines or regional areas.

Once again, YMMV.
