Earth Changes: Critical Global Events 2010-2011

Overview of significant Earth Changes & Events:
February, 2010-March, 2011

Looking back over the past year, it is interesting to note some of the major Earth changing events that have affected life on Earth. These events include not only natural disasters, but a few of those that mankind has perpetrated upon the planet. The combination of earthquakes, tsunamis and Nuclear crisis from the Sendai, Japan earthquake remains a story that's still unfolding, as of this writing. In the words of one nuclear expert, "No amount of radiation is safe!"

• Kyushu, Japan, Shinmoedake Volcano erupts March 13th, 2011.

• Sendai, Japan, 9.0M (USGS revised upward from 8.9M) Earthquakes, Tsunamis, and Nuclear Crisis, beginning March 11th, 2011.

• Arkansas, United States, 800 Earthquakes generated from alledged Fracking. (See blog regarding this.), September 2010-March, 2011.

• Christchurch, New Zealand, 6.3M Earthquake, February 27th, 2011.

• Kyushu, Japan, Shinmoedake Volcano erupts January 31st, 2011.

• Sumatra, Indonesia, 7.7M Earthquake, October 25th, 2010.

• Christchurch, New Zealand, 7.0M Earthquake, September 4th, 2010.

• Gulf of Mexico, Deepwater Horizon, Largest marine oil spill in history along with use of toxic chemicals: ie. Corexit, April 20th, 2010.

• Eyjafjalla Glacier, Iceland, Volcano erupts, April 15th, 2010.

• Qinghai, China, 6.9M Earthquake, April 14th, 2010.

• Baja California, Mexico, 7.2M Earthquake, April 4th, 2010.

• Off Southern tip of Taiwan, 6.4M Earthquake, March 3rd, 2010.

• Bio-Bio, Chile, 8.8M Earthquake February 27th, 2010.

One day, perhaps in the not too distant future, we may hopefully see a more enlightened Homo sapiens living in harmony with not only the planet, but with other people as well.

Earth Changes

Earthquakes seem to be making the news rather frequently these days. On March 4, 2010, a strong earthquake hit Taiwan (6.4M), injuring approximately sixty-four people, disrupting communications, and triggering a fire. It is alledged to be the biggest earthquake to hit this region in more that a century, and unrelated to the Chilean earthquake 6 days earlier.

On February 27, 2010, an impressively strong earthquake (8.8M) hit Chile and generated several tsunamis, causing mild to moderate damage in that country. A short while before, on January 12th, Haiti was rocked by a (7.0M) earthquake, while the Sumatran earthquake (9.1M) of 2004 generated a massive Indian Ocean tsunami killing thousands of people. Everyday there are earthquakes of various size and magnitude that occur in different areas around the globe.

Unfortunately, many people don't even give a second thought to earthquakes, or the earth changes that occur as a result of them, unless they are directly affected by one. The problem with a compalcent attitude, is that people believe that tomorrow is just going to be another another day, and life will continue as it is.

This, however, is an erroneous assumption, since our planet is in a constant state of movement and change. The environment, continents, oceans, air, plant and animal life changes from moment to moment, depending upon what is going on in our biosphere. If Homo sapiens is going to continue its life on earth, then it needs to wake-up and become conscious as to what is occurring within its realm of being.

Richard Gross, a geophysicist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, said, “The length of the day should have gotten shorter by 1.26 microseconds (millionths of a second),” he went on to say in an e-mail reply to questions. “The axis about which the Earth’s mass is balanced should have moved by 2.7 milliarcseconds (about 8 centimeters or 3 inches).” He added, “The Sumatran earthquake shortened the day by 6.8 microseconds and shifted the axis by about 2.3 milliarcseconds."

Although this may not seem like a great deal of earth change, we must remember that even the tinest shift in the earth can result in significant changes in the planet's environment as we move forward in time, and with more significant earthquakes, the amount of change in axis and length of day may be compounded.

Earth is a delicately balanced bio-sphere, and even the slightest imbalance can cause unknown consequences and effects in the weather, seasons, et cetera. It is time for people to wake-up to this fact and realize there is much they can do, to reduce the damage that Homo sapiens is doing to the planet.
