Tonight, TV programme Petrolio (Rai Uno, 11:30 pm), conducted by Duilio Giammaria, will investigate the responsibilities of mankind and provide a preview of next week’s programme that will focus on seismology with Chilean experts in schools [see news The Earthquake Machine].
Did the earthquake that hit L’Aquila seven years ago and was just a few kilometres away from Amatrice not teach us anything? Couldn’t we have avoided such vast damage? How can we be safe in our houses?
Chile is the country that has been hit by the most powerful recorded earthquake. The earthquake that struck Amatrice on August 24 is a daily occurrence in Chile, but causes no damage. Chilean Architect Alejandro Aravena, Director of the Biennale Architetura, explains how to construct housing to live safely on “Petrolio.”
