CHINA QUAKE

Chineses State has reported that 300 people died and over 8,000 were found injured in the earth quake that hit east China about one week ago. The people who lived in this area were mostly Tibetean natives that made a living by the rich resources surrounding there land. Officials say that the airport roads were blocked by debris so troops were having to rescue people from the rubble by hand. Officicals also said that they only expect the death tolls to rise as soon as they get the proper equipment to search for the bodies that lay underneath the rubble. I'm guessing with this many already found dead and injured that the abillity for these native people to produce a table lifestyle will make things much harder than they already are as many of those, who are capable of working these lands are wither dead, hurt or homeless. The town was hit by a very large 7.1 earth quake. One thing that does interest me is the true damage it caused compared to the quake in Haiti which was approximatley the same size. The only difference is that Haiti was over populized for the circumfrance that the quake actually impacted. It seems like these villagers were also in a very small zone for high powerful the quake is especially since the towns population reaches 80,000. I'm also curious to see if the U.S. or U.N. will be contributing to any of these relief efforts.You would think that we eventually would be you never know, we are known to spend our money on blowing people up rather than saving them. I leave this blog with a question for you to answer. We have continually been seeing poiwerful storms and natural disasters that used to not show up as often. Do you think that the unpredictable natural occurences we have been witnessing is due to any for of global warming or is this just a natural cycle and people are just freaking out?
