Ranging from the man-made to the acts of God, there seem to have been an unusually high amount of environmental disasters. From devastating earthquakes in Haiti, Chile, and China (which 5 letter country is next?) to the oil leak crisis persisting in the Gulf of Mexico, these catastrophes remind us of how fragile the ecosystems in which we live really are. These wake up calls have been exceptionally loud, and hopefully they get the right people's attention.

Tennessee again. Ouch.
Unpronounceable volcano in Iceland.

Mass destruction.
An infographic on the scope of the oil spill. This could quickly turn into the worst environmental disaster in US history. It's 2010 people! Why is this happening?!
