In today's episode, Zack has 30 minutes to become an "expert" on... Earthquakes! Fun fact - Zack is taking Geography this semester, so he was already a bit of an exert on the subject before his 30 minutes study period! But he became even more of an expert for us and for that, we are grateful. So let's shake, rattle and roll our way to tectonic brilliance. Zack schools us on the three different types of tectonic plate movement and explains why the kind that the San Andreas fault is is the most dangerous and potentially devastating (of course). But knowledge is power. We learned about the richter scale and how wild its valuation is, and confirmed that we experienced a 7.1 back in July of 2019! Wow. Crazy times. This might not be the happiest episode ever, since earthquakes can be incredibly devastating, but it was interesting. Stay safe out there, kids. Protect your heads!
Highlights Include:
- Tsunamis
- The biggest earthquake ever
- Katie's tips on how to protect yourself during an earthquake
