Presentation transcript:

It killed 1/3 of Haiti’s population. This effected 3 million people. It didn’t just destroy buildings and humans it also destroyed nutrition and other serious things. This lead to... No Food No Clean Water Lack of medical aids It didn’t just effect the people of Haiti it also effected other countries. By sending food and aid to them they are loosing some of there own aid and loosing money by sending things like aid.

The earthquake struck 15km (10 miles) South –West of Port-au-Prince followed by to aftershocks US, UK and Venezuela among others did a lot to help the terrible earthquake Although many other richer did send food it wasn’t enough so people had to stand in long ques to get food and water. It happened on the 12 January 2010 It was Haiti’s worst earthquake in 2 centeries (2000 years)

The natural cause for an earthquake is the re-adjustment of layers according to 'The Plate Tectonic theory'. It's also caused by depletion of under-ground water resources because such excess depletion will lead to form a gap in the position of water. To replace the gap, the Earth needs to needs to get some thing from the crust Temuziun Victory.
