With natural disasters of that envergure it takes a long time to account for all lives lost.

And I am certain that is far from over.

The Mexico earthquake had a tremendous impact on human life; many people died ... hundreds. ...By being crushed under falling floors, ceilings, concrete, ...destroyed houses and high rise buildings.

Hurricane winds rip the roofs apart of houses, the walls too
Without solid concrete houses with steel roofs you are @ the mercy of the strong natural elements.
Wood houses are the most vulnerable, from hurricanes and fires.
Concrete and brick houses are vulnerable to earthquakes.
Steel houses made from Kobe steel, skyscrapers build on solid foundations...fare better. It costs money to buy security. But then, skyscrapers are vulnerable to fire too, when using cheap materials that are easily inflammable...as we saw not long ago in the UK, and also in that unsafe warehouse in California where many young people died.
The codes in which our buildings are built, many are not respected.
It is catastrophic that we allow this. It is gross criminal negligence, it is totally irresponsible.

Maria was a different catastrophic event from nature unleashed fury.
...Like a nuclear disaster...almost.
Can they rebuild stronger and hurricane-proof in Purto Rico, for the next hurricane? They need a lot of money for that...who is going to provide?
No one, they can only relate on their own community with help from the world around.

How can we live in this world, on this planet, and allow this to happen?
In the year 2017, after all the lessons we learned from history; beats me!
What is wrong with people!?! Injustice, abuse, sex exploitation, slavery, money traps, tricheries, human degradation, disrespect of human life, rapes, are rampant everywhere, over there, here too in Hollywood.
When do people stop making the situation worst by ignoring and saying nothing and doing nothing, and not helping the already mother nature destructions.
It almost feels like humans have to follow natural destructions by corrupting themselves in the name of money, of jobs, of promotions, of stardom, of power trip, of showoff, of gigantic egos, of inhuman behavior!
How much sickness is it required in the world before a cure is found?
There is no cure for a disease that humans encourage; the disease is in humans themselves. The cure is up to them...the more they spread their disease by doing nothing the worst it gets. Nobody has the guts to stand for what's right; they all are living in fear of losing their paychecks. And that, is the real disease spreading like wildfires, like strong winds, like hurricane killers. Nobody cares about anything but money.
It don't matter what we put into the atmosphere, what we put in our ocean's, what we eat and consume. We are consuming/extinguishing our own selves.
Thanks for reading.
