Is it me or the number of disasters increases insanely fast? I agree that all these things are the nature’s way of telling us we are doing something wrong. Either way, their number is getting bigger. I do realize there is a chance that is has always been this way – it’s just that mass media wasn’t developed that well before. But now it is. And I believe the methods of predicting disasters should be advanced too. Now I just want to specify what I am talking about.
Let’s take a quick review of the disasters that took place 1 – 7 years ago.
1.Volcano in Iceland (2010).
Iceland is famous for its volcanoes. The famous volcano ejection in April 2010 (Eyjafjallajokull) resulted in major problems with air traveling across western and northern Europe. Even if you don’t watch the news, I am sure you heard of it. Ashes reached east cost of the North America, Europe, and even Asia.
