Explain the effects of earthquake and volcanic eruption on a selected Caribbean country

An earthquake and a volcanic eruption on Grenada will have devastating effects.

Explanation:

The Caribbean countries (in this case we'll speak about Grenada) that have active volcanoes tend to be small islands. This makes them ultra vulnerable if a natural disaster or combination of multiple natural disasters strikes. The reason as to why they are in such bad position if this occurs is because everything will be stranded on a very small area, with the full effect of the disaster being felt, no one will be able to get to a safe place, and it is hard for help to come from other countries.

A stronger volcanic eruption combined with an earthquake has the capability of destroying the majority or all of the infrastructure in this country. But it is not that that will be the most tragic, it will be that all of the population will be stranded and in danger to get injured or end up dead which can go so far that the country may even seize to exist.

I think that it would still just be an island. A peninsula is a landform surrounded by water that extends outward from the land. Imagine a green rectangle sticking out from the green oval you pictured. That rectangle would represent the peninsula. Therefore, dividing the island in half would not create any peninsulas. Hope this helps :)

Por favor ayúdenme a contestar estas pregunta cada una de 80 palabras por lo menos ¿Crees estar inserto en un mundo globalizado?
diamong [38]

Answer:

1- Efectivamente, hoy en día nos encontramos viviendo en un mundo globalizado, ya que se trata de un sistema mundial interconectado, donde todas las sociedades y gobiernos tienen una comunicación fluida y constante entre sí en forma rápida y dinámica. Esto se ha logrado a través del desarrollo de los medios de comunicación, que permiten la conectividad a gran escala.

2- Un aspecto positivo de la globalización en mi vida personal es que el desarrollo de las comunicaciones y las tecnologías me permite poder comunicarme con personas de mi familia que viven en otro país a decenas de miles de kilómetros de distancia, con solo apretar un botón y esperar tan sólo unos pocos segundos. Es decir, la globalización acorta las distancias y reduce los tiempos, uniendo más a las personas y, por ende, a los pueblos y países.

3- Un efecto negativo de la globalización es que todos los eventos políticos y sociales que ocurren en un país tienen repercusión en los demás países. Por ejemplo, una ley en los Estados Unidos puede influir en el desarrollo del comercio en Latinoamérica, influyendo negativamente en las economías de países con menor desarrollo, pudiendo causar problemas económicos a estos.
