Traducere The first earthquake happened in the middle of the night on 20th
May 2012. I was asleep when suddenly my bed started shaking
violently my family and Iran quickly down the stairs into the street
There was a second earthquake nine days later. The two earthquakes
s killed seven people injured another 50 and badly damaged most of
the buildings in our town. After the earthquake we lived and slept in
the streets for several days I know that my country is in a seismic area,
but some scientists think that one of the causes of the earthquake
might be fracking the process of drilling down into the earth to find
10 gas Iffracking continues there might be more earthquakes.

Avalanches are quite common in the Swiss-Austrian Alps but what
happened in 1950-51 is called The Winter of Terror. My grandfather
remembers that in three months about 650 avalanches killed more
15 than 265 people and damaged thousands of buildings. Heavy
snowfalls loud noises vibrations and increases in temperature can
cause avalanches. If dimate change causes temperatures to rise.
there will be more avalanches and there will be more deaths and
destruction. (Anton from Innsbruck, Austria)
