Vanuatu and the 4 Spheres
Vanuatu is very prone to earthquakes with several per year, most of them can be 6.0 magnitude or higher. Seven earthquakes were recorded in 2011, all at around 6.0 magnitude. It also has many active volcanoes, above sea level and below. In November 2008, there was a volcano eruption below sea level at 6.4 magnitude, thankfully with no casualties. Many upland watersheds are being deforested and degrated, and fresh water is becoming scarce. Proper waste disposal is also affecting their water and air, polluting it.
