With all the earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes and floods going on around the world as of late is this just the buildup to 2012? Is it the beginning of the apocalypse?

I have some concerns about moving to Florida, because of all of the natural disasters that’s been going on lately..

Do you think Florida can be hit by a tsunami or a earthquake or any other major natural disasters?

I am aware of the hurricanes, but usually they give you a head-sup on those. I am talking about disaster that people can’t "predict" hitting a certain area 100% and that will just hit without no time of warning that could help people escape?!

Even after all the devastation last year people are still not ready for this hurricane season (that started today).
Are you ready?

The news said that over 80% of people have done nothing to strengthen their home.
Over 2/3 of the people have NO hurricane plan (they do not stock any supplies or have any evacuation plan if the need arises)!

If I lived in Florida or Louisiana I would be scared of hurricanes (the hurricane season is getting worse every year because of Global Warming). How can they not have plans to get out?!?

I wanna know because I might wanna move there when I get older, do they get as much hurricanes as Florida?

Could that be possible?

I came accross various articles on this subject online, here’s one:

The Russian Navy reports that the U.S. created the earthquake in Haiti

The Northern Fleet has been monitoring the movements and activities of U.S. Marines in the Caribbean since 2008 when the Americans announced their intention to reestablish the Fourth Fleet, which was disbanded in 1950, and that Russia responded a year later, with the Fleet led by the nuclear-powered cruiser Peter the Great "by starting its first exercises in this region since the end of the Cold War.”
Since the end of the decade of the 70’s in the last century, the U.S. "advanced a lot" in the state of its earthquake weapons and, according to these reports, they now use equipment with Pulse, Plasma and Tesla Electromagnetic and Sonic technology together with "shock wave bombs."

The report also compares the experiences of these two earthquake weapons of the U.S. Navy last week, when the test in the Pacific caused an earthquake of magnitude 6.5 to strike in the area around the town of Eureka, Calif., causing no casualties. But the test in the Caribbean caused the death of at least 140 thousand innocent people.

According to the report, it is "more than likely" that the U.S. Navy had "full knowledge" of the catastrophic damage that this test earthquake could potentially have on Haiti and had pre-positioned its Deputy Commander of the Southern Command, General PK Keen, on the island to oversee aid work if needed.

As regards the final result of the tests of these weapons, the report warns that there is a U.S. plan to destroy Iran through a series of earthquakes designed to overthrow its current Islamic regime. Additionally, according to the report, the system being tested by the USA (HAARP Project) would also create anomalies in the climate causing floods, droughts and hurricanes.

According to another report, coincidentally, facts exist establishing that the earthquake in Sichuan, China on 12 May 2008, a magnitude 7.8 on the Richter scale, was also caused by HAARP radio frequencies. It can be observed that there is a correlation between seismic activity and the ionosphere, through the control of Radio Frequencies Induced by force fields, which is a HAARP feature, and it can be concluded that:

1 .- Earthquakes identical in depth and linearly on the same fault are caused by induced frequency linear projection.

2 .- A coordinated satellite configuration can generate concentrated frequency projections targeting specific points (force fields).

3. A diagram shows that earthquakes considered to be artificial propagate linearly at the same depth.

-Venezuela, on January 8, 2010. Depth: 10 km.

- Honduras, on 11 January 2010. Depth: 10 km.

- Haiti, on 12 January 2010. Depth: 10 km.

The rest of the aftershocks occurred at depths close to 10 km.

Soon after the earthquake, the Pentagon said the hospital ship USS Comfort, which was docked in Baltimore, summoned its crew and sailed to Haiti, despite the fact that several days would elapse before arrival in Haiti. Nevertheless, Navy Admiral Mike Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said the U.S. armed forces were preparing an emergency response to the disaster.

General Douglas Fraser, Commander-in-Chief of USSSOUTHCOM, said that Coast Guard and U.S. Navy vessels in the region were sent to offer help even if they had limited resources and helicopters.

The aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson was sent from the naval base at Norfolk, Virginia, with a complete consignment of aircraft and helicopters. It arrived in Haiti early on the afternoon of January 14. Other additional groups of helicopters will attach with the Carl Vinson, said Fraser.

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), operated in Haiti before the earthquake. President Obama was informed of the earthquake at 17.52 on January 12 and asked his staff to ensure that embassy officials were safe and began preparations to provide needed humanitarian assistance.

According to the Russian report, the State Department, USAID and the U.S. Southern Command began its work of "humanitarian invasion" by sending at least 10,000 soldiers and contractors, to control Haitian territory, rather than the UN, after the devastating "experimental earthquake."

First we were told it was because of hurricanes in the gulf and the need to shut down platforms; then we were told the supplies were low; then we were told it was because of the fear of terrorists attacks. As the price continues to climb what do you think are the REAL reasons oil is at 0 a barrel?

It looks like President Obama found George Bush’s hurricane machine – you know, the one he used to send Katrina to hurt all those poor black people in New Orleans – and has now used it to send Hurricane Bill to hurt the white people in New England. Does it actually make the hurricanes or just attract them like a magnet? And if the latter why did President Obama take such a risk bringing it to Martha’s Vinyard himself?

I have to right 4 papers on current events in science. I want to do it on earthquakes and hurricanes but im not sure if they go with science? I know it sounds like a dum question but i just need to make sure.

How does a natural disaster like volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, earthquakes etc. Influence the earth biological and geological?

Answer greatly needed.

I’m really interested in meteorology and hope to become a meteorologist some day. My high school is having a science fair. I chose to do a tornado. My question is Why are tornadoes more powerful than hurricanes but don’t last nearly as long as hurricanes. How am I supposed to do this experiment? I really want to do this topic so I need help on how I can do this experiment or if there’s another experiment related to weather that I can actually do.

gas price gouging: "blame it on the hurricanes"
Bush/Chaney? They are heavily invested in big oil; don’t expect any help from them. Congress? Asleep at the wheel or paid off.
Gas companies should have been warned not to take advantage of the hurricane situation or they would be put on trial like those Enron crooks.
Just last week, they said that supplies were so high that production would be cut. Now why a sudden shortage? It is time the American people got some answers, not doubletalk and more windfall profits for the oil companies.

In the fall of 2004 the price of tomatoes dramatically increased. Which of the following could have caused this change?
A. Hurricanes during the late summer damaged the Florida crop, shifting supply left.
B. A reduction in tariffs of tomatoes from Central American, shifting supply right.
C. A news report stating that a pesticide used on tomatoes might cause cancer, shifting the demand to the right.
D. Advertising for catsup increased demand for catsup, shifting the demand curve to the left.

Very warm water and air meets cold and high air and generates a hurricane. Hurricanes start they development in oceans. Should it be that underwater volcanoes make a major contribution to hurricane phenomenon?

Technorati Tags: , , , , ,

Volcanos for instance. How often on average is there an eruption around the world? One every year? Every 5-15 years?

Lightning? I seem to recall hearing that there is a lightning bolt every 4 seconds or something somewhere in the world

Hurricanes? Fifty or so I would guess?

Earthquakes above, say, 4.0? Maybe….. 150-200?

Tsunami waves? Maybe 1 every 10 years?

Tornado? No idea……

It’d be interesting to know how often these things occur.

ENOUGH of Hurricane Katrina. YES it was horrible & sad . SO was 9/11. Life goes on! Ever since Katrina every1 scared it’s "going to happen again". Does any1 hate how the media scares us. I live in Houston so I have an idea of what Hurricanes are too! I am so sick of hearing about a storm off the coast of AFRICA & people in Houston making evac. plans & stokcing up on supplies. I know you can’t be too careful but some ppl take it too far don’t you think?
Sorry Nicole :( .
Sorry Nicole :( .
I’m referring to people in Houston worrying about Gustav & I don’t need to hear about N.O for the 3001th time. Why does everyone mention New Orleans when it comes to Katrina? What in the HELL about Mississippi?

the 60s and 70s were all about positive energy and ushering in an age of enlightenment… now all the talk about 2012 and global warming, and solar flares and volcanic activity and earthquakes and hurricanes… so which is it?

I was just listening to Pat Robertson on You Tube. Terrorists do take advantage of political changes, 1993 (Clinton), 2001 (Bush), 2007 (New Congress?). Not a big leap to think of a terrorist attack in 2007. Kind of an anti-climax announcement.

But it did get me thinking, how many people actually prepare for a possible disaster by having a few days of food around, flash lights, medical supplies, that kind of thing. The normal Red Cross Be Prepared kind of thing.

All the "Oh my God the world is going to be destroyed by…" Nuclear war, global warming, terrorists, hurricanes, tornadoes, infestations of caterpillars, etc can leave this one alone.

I just want to know how many reasonably normal people have checked out ready.gov and have some emergency supplies around in case of a disaster.
Thanks. The ratio of real answers to silly answers tells me a lot too. Looks like if there was a major disaster any major urban center in the country things would end up a lot like they were in Louisiana. On the other hand, it kind of looks like people in rural or suburban areas might be better prepared. Kind of a common sense thing I would guess. some kind of ratio of storage space versus costs versus convince and availability, I would assume.

Thanks.

Nuclear energy already supplies 20 percent of our energy. If we were to build my plants, how would we handle the waste? After all, it does have a half-life of 10000 years.
Who would want it in their backyard? What place is safe from earthquakes, fires, hurricanes, and far from a population center?

hurricanes have increased in intensity and numbers drasticaly. there has been more volcanic eruptians, earthquakes, more intense thunderstorms, and tsunamis. also, the climate is shifting. i believe global warming is a rising factor that is being ignored. something needs to be done before it is too late. governemtnis more worried about money then it is man kind. what are your views?
i understand that its nautral and will occur no matter what, but its the intensity and how we speed the proccess up that worries me. sea level is rising, this is another problem occuring due to the melting glaciers.

Yesterday, I saw many signs & boxes about donating food & school supplies to places, like Africa & Honduras. But do other countries do that for us when our country is struggling? I understand that those are poor countries, but I’m just curious.

People cared more about the tsunami in Asia than they cared abut Hurricanes Katrina & Rita. Why is that?
Yeah. That’s what I’m saying. People here in the US didn’t care about the disasters of their own country.

I am traveling to San Salvador this week and heard that their school buildings were destroyed by hurricanes a few years back. Do you know if the schools have been rebuild yet, or are the kids still in trailers. I would like to bring some donations with me for the primary school kids and teacher and want to be sure I bring something they need.

I was planning on taking down some playground toys (soccer balls, jump ropes, etc.) and maybe some books and/or school supplies that might be useful.

Thanks in advance for any first-hand information.

The excuses are as bad as Bushes reasons to go to war in Iraq. First it’s the Hurricanes in the Gulf, the war, supply and demand, King Faad has a run in his nylons and now it’s going up due to the tensions in Iran. Yada Yada Yada! It is all fraud and greed. They are stepping on their own toes because we have our own oil, we also have alternative energy technology. Now all we have to do is get rid of OIL PRESIDENT.

someone please

The Picture you see is a planet called planet x this planet should strike earth atmosphere completely giving our planet major natural disaster the no humankind never seen before if you reading this you be the next generation of human racist… the year is 2007 people are still wondering if this planet is real or not but I think it is.. Basically this planet should come across earth the year 2012 December 21.The story goes that the ancient Sumerians believ in 12 planets in our solar system… there calendar ends at the year 2012 scientist are wondering if this planet is real or not .In 2003 there was rumor the a scientist fund this planet an report to the media but there was no knowledge proof of is existedings .. in 2005 they give a specific they when this planet well come across but they never release to the public… The natural disaster are major tornados, earthquakes, tsunamis , wirldpools, hurricanes all global wide there no escape.

I mean do the hurricanes just say okay, it’s June I’m gonna start now, and when November comes, it says I’m gonna stop now. How do we know the exact month that a hurricane could pop up and how do we know the exact month that it stops? Who’s to say we couldn’t have a hurricane in December?

I live in South Florida, and I know that the hurricane has been predicted to go west of florida, but we all know that hurricanes can make drastic turns. What do you think will happen?

Is it lower demand because of the seasons? Is it because of no hurricanes that affected the supply chain to cause a surplus of petroleum.

Because that time is almost here. Earthquakes, famines, floods, hurricanes, fires, tornados, and much more. If your house is not in
order, you had better get right. What do you think ? Best answer
wins.

if hurricanes were in short supply and it needed to look like a natural disaster?…something really big that would cause a lot of deaths and panic the population…
maybe even something that put the regime in charge of medicine, food, water, utilities, industry, travel, trade, communications, media, fuel……..and such
and would cause an immediate need for a civilian army.
or even a one world government

A) Tornados
B) Earthquakes
C) Hurricanes
D) Floods
E) Tsunamis

Criteria: Most pollutants from destroyed buildings, automobiles, and land-use structures, size of disaster, volume of disaster types, in a single calendar year.
4 strikeouts so far, the answer is included in the choices.

The pollution from what is destroyed, not the cause of the disaster.

Do you think that its weird that i want hurricane Dean to hit miami? My reasons are that hopefully it will delay the start of school. And it gives people an opportunity to repair aging homes and buildings. I also like preparing for the hurricane by going out and buying supplies I know that houses in miami wont fall apart because most are up to code and we dont do that plywood stuff that is done upstate we build with concrete and cement……do any of you "yahoo answer’s" get excitment out of hurricanes..?
Hurricane andrew destroyed whatever falling apart homes and poorly built houses…the last hurricane New orleans got was 50 years earlier…no offense but here miami alot of people take precautions and there are shelters in every corner…in even hurricane andrew there was not many fatalities..
thank u angelluv my heart dropped when he said that it would not hit…hehe at least there is hope…no school!lol
