Humanitarian catastrophes (including resource wars and conflicts), natural, climate and industrial (except nuclear or oil forum fossil and nuclear energy). Pollution of the sea and oceans.

To see the terrifying videos, I had the impression that the height greatly exceeded 10m, it is confirmed.
It's titanic near a 10-story building !!
The bottom of estuaries can amplify tsunamis by a factor of 2 to 3 !!

It is as much as the tsunami at the end of 2004 in Indonesia with a maximum of 30m !!

They were showing this morning on TV a young Japanese man who said that it was his third tsunami in his life, who had fled to the heights of the earthquake at full speed and had saved his life but not that of his family !!

By the sea in France, if an earthquake, do the same !!!!

In my opinion, you have to build very high refuges by the sea every 200m !!
The Japanese had made dikes (6 to 10m) but not these solid refuges everywhere from 30 to 40m, probably less expensive.


In France we underestimate the risk, for nuclear power plants and the population, 10 to 100 times lower, but real.

Like TEPCO, Areva, EDF and the government would also be totally responsible!


The "experience feedback" method used of waiting for the accident to occur is absurd, even criminal, instead of looking at the geological traces !!.

For those who remember these terrible images and who have spent a long time in a loop:

It was above all the enormous inertia which was destructive amha.

I am far from being sure that when we see the boats tumble and pass over the wall to then be decapitated while passing under the bridge, that at this place the wave would have reached more than ten meters ... Given the height of the cars below, this is not the case.

By cons it depends on the configuration of the rest of the coast may before his arrival, in some places yes maybe, but not everywhere. Anyway whatever. The destruction is unfortunately there!

Hat the Japanese, hard in misfortune, especially if we compare to Haiti.

Furthermore, given the scale of this tsunami, how did they manage to have only 20000 dead and not 5 to 10 times more as at the end of 2004, in Indonesia.
They were well prepared even if they could not avoid to protect themselves from everything.

The Fudai village of 3000 inhabitants saved by their 16m high wall against the 20m high tsunami, a crazy expense in memory of the tsunamis of 1896 and 1933 a little lower !!

52 year old photos taken on the coast of the prefecture of Miyé. These dikes were built from the 50s, wherever possible. There are 14 kilometers.

The height of 10/12 meters is very insufficient knowing that we have measured waves 65 meters high, but we can estimate that these dikes have already saved millions of people. More shelters should be set up with quick and easy access for the elderly. 2/3 of the victims of the March 11 tsunami were elderly.

According to Haroun Tazieff, tsunami waves have exceeded 150 meters in height on the south coast of Alaska. At the Musée de la Mer in Biarritz there is a room on tsunamis and there are mentioned waves over 60 meters.
