Taiwan Hit by Strongest Earthquake in 25 Years

Taiwan Hit by Strongest Earthquake in 25 Years
The entire island of Taiwan was hit by a strong earthquake with magnitude 7.7 on April 3. According to the Taiwanese Central Weather Administration, the epicentre of the quake was in waters off the eastern coastline of Taiwan. It collapsed buildings in a southern city and created a tsunami that washed ashore on southern Japanese islands. Train service was also suspended across the island of 23 million people. However, things quickly returned to normal in the capital city of Taipei. This was reportedly the strongest earthquake after tremors with magnitude 7.6 struck the island in 1999, killing 2,400 people and destroying 5,000 buildings.

    Too much disaster the global community is facing because of climate change and this needs to be addressed with fierce urgency for humanity to survive. Still the governing bodies of every nation choose to ignore this catastrophic and imminent disaster and while spending billions for military hardware to kill each other and hasten the extinction of man as is seen in Ukraine and Palestine. I pray that reason replaces the greed and idiocy and peace prevails.
