Hayden Notes

During term 2 we had to make a powerpoint on natural disasters I chose Earthquakes here it is.The most dangerous place to live where tsunamis occur is japan they have had a number of earthquakes and tsunamis.  In 1855 in Wellington there was a earthquake with a magnitude of 8.2.  Samoa had a big tsunami in 2011 killing hundreds of people and smashing everything in its way. Heaps of people lost their houses, lives, cars and loved ones even cities. Tsunamis are often generated by volcanic eruptions under the sea they can also be generated by earthquakes.
