Mexico suffered an 8.1/8.2 magnitude earthquake and 5 subsequent aftershocks of about 4.9 . A tsunami warning has been issued. Fire next?

Hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, potential tsunami. Avalanches, mudslides, sinkholes, gas pipe explosions. Are they coming next after the fire(s)?  Is Mother Nature really ticked off at us for destroying her home?

    If I believed in God, I would say that, with all the natural disasters that have cropped up lately, he is very angry with us.

    Perhaps Mother Nature is the angry one. You know what they say about "a woman scorned". "HELL HATH NO FURY LIKE A WOMAN SCORED. Which gives me an idea for another question. An Answermugger posited that it is earth's rebuke to us of what humans have been doing  ever since they appeared here. A smackdown/slap upside the face! I dunno. Something's gone amiss and very badly too. Thank you for your reply Spunky! :)

    If Mother Nature is rebuking us, she's doing one heck of a job.
