There's been a lot of natural disasters lately.

Here's one in India -- nine tourists were killed and several were injured after a massive rockslide hit a bridge in Himachal Pradesh’s Sangla Valley yesterday, July 25th, 2021.

Yeah. I was here in'91 for the Oakland Hills fire. Always a possibility it might happen again. More so this year. 🙏

Where storms are concerned, I agree with you. As for earthquakes, most[0] aren't man-induced, so I mostly disagree with you.

 

 

[0] I know of some man induced earthquakes caused by natural gas extraction in the Dutch province Groningen.

Now the Gulfstream might collapse (or not )

Of course Climate change being mooted, but nothing mentioned about the fact that most floods are caused by building houses on flood plains and deforestation.

Effects of drought and climate change...

I saw this recently while on a trip in California's Central Valley.

In blistering drought, California farmers rip up precious almond trees

Greece and Turkey getting hammered now.

 

Much of Russia is a giant field of Hogweed now. They virtually destroyed a vast area of their agricultural lands.
