- Hello and welcome back to our channel. In this video, we're going to talk about the damages that earthquakes can cause. Earthquakes can cause a wide range of damages, including property damage, infrastructure damage, loss of life, tsunamis, and economic impacts. The shaking and ground movements caused by earthquakes can severely damage buildings, roads, bridges, and other structures, making them unusable or causing them to collapse. Essential infrastructure such as power lines, gas pipelines, and water mainscan also be damaged, leading to disruptions in basic services. Earthquakes can also result in loss of life, with people being injured or killed by falling debris, collapsing buildings, or other hazards. Tsunamis can also caused by earthquakes under the ocean, which can strike coastal areas with little or no warning. Finally, the damages caused by earthquakes can have significant economic impacts, with the cost of repairing or rebuilding infrastructure and structures being enormous, and the loss of life and property having long-lasting effects on affected communities.
