Japanese Earthquake : Update Jehovah's Witnesses Official Media Web Site: March 16, 2011‏

The severity of a disaster does not always relate to the power of the natural forces involved. The concentration of humans in the affected area is often of greater consequence. According to a report published by the World Bank, in more than 160 countries, over a quarter of the population live in areas of high mortality risk from natural disasters. “As you put more and more people in [harm’s] way, you make a disaster out of something that before was just a natural event,” says scientist Klaus Jacob of Columbia University in the United States. http://www.watchtower.org/e/200709/article_02.htm
