The Ring of Fire is waking up. And the Philippines, with the weakest structural steel standard in the region, is most at risk.
"The Ring of Fire is not a headline, or not a place to visit (if you’re sane), it’s also not an enemy.
It’s just the edge of everything: the edge of the plates, of history, of certainty. What’s happening now isn’t new; it’s just a little louder.
And maybe, that’s the message: that in an age of digital noise and climate despair, there is still one force that humbles us all completely: the Earth herself.
She has no politics, no ego, no hesitation, and no guilt.
Just pressure, then release.
The Ring of Fire is alive, and lately?
She’s wide awake." -Michele Gargiulo
