1127 130 MILLION people in the Mediterranean at RISK⚠️Coast Lines WAY MORE VULNERABLE than estimated

The Mediterranean region is at high risk for tsunamis due to its geological activity, including earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The Hellenic Island Arc and the Strait of Messina are particularly dangerous areas, with a history of devastating tsunamis triggered by earthquakes along fault lines. These tsunamis pose a significant threat to the densely populated coastal regions, including popular tourist destinations.The Mediterranean region faces a significant tsunami risk from both earthquakes and volcanic activity. While early warning systems exist for undersea earthquakes, the proximity of fault lines to coastlines limits warning time. Volcanic activity, particularly from Stromboli and Etna, poses an additional threat, with potential for massive landslides triggering devastating tsunamis.
