@nowthis: Why was the 7.8-magnitude earthquake in Turkey and Syria so deadly? In the wake of an earthquake that killed more than 50,000 people, architect Cameron Sinclair breaks down how ‘bad buildings’ factored into the staggering death toll. Sinclair, the founder of Worldchanging Institute, recently released a ten-point plan for resilient reconstruction in Turkey and Syria. #turkeyearthquake #syriaearthquake #architecture #rebuilding #news #earthquake #syria #turkey

I’ve been in a dozen 6+ magnitude earthquakes since moving to japan. And the WORST that happens is that I wake up from deep sleep. Bad buildings kill.

it’s crazy that a lot of people still think this is because of earthquake, construction of these buildings is still barely talked enough about

Those greedy developers need to be fined and made to build again properly. They will never cut corners again

No commercial building is made to be 100% earthquake proof. Its supposed to last long enough for a full evac

The problem also is that the stores & oven bakeries added to the 1st floor of these buildings removed all the support columns, so they all collapsed

When you have a corrupt populist who is inching his way to dictatorship, this always happens. Like Putin the little people are disposable to him.
