EARTHQUAKE AND TECHNICAL

A video was posted under this title. I don't prepare text for video conversations in advance. For this reason, this article will not be the same as the one described in the video under the same title, but it will overlap in basic points.

Human is in nature. It is a weak creature. It has neither fangs nor the strength to deal with wild animals, nor can it run as fast as they do. Man first needed the technique to protect himself against nature. The first technical means can be considered an extension of the body. For example, the sledgehammer followed by the hammer is another type of punch. 

Man is the only creature that can constantly improve his technique, so he can protect nature. goes from the stage of self-defense against the stage of changing nature. Although self-defense has never been finished, it has lagged behind, especially after the industrial revolution.

Using human technique, against the forces of nature it can defend itself and reduce or even completely eliminate their harmful effects.

For example, lightning is lethal. You can't prevent it from falling, but you can make its effect harmless by using a lightning rod. 

Similar determination earthquake

Earthquake can be evaluated in the category of nature severity. You cannot prevent it, nor do you know exactly when it will happen. In recent years, approximate estimates can be made about the location of severe earthquakes. For example, it was predicted that there would be an earthquake with a magnitude of 7 in Maraş, but it was not possible to prevent it.

Man, just like his history, as in his early stages, he can defend himself against the violence of nature using technique. Even a severe earthquake can be neutralized when new construction techniques are found and applied. Japan is the best example of this. Even earthquakes with a magnitude of 7-8 do not cause destruction or loss of life. 

Man should live in harmony with nature. , is called. What should be understood from this determination is not attention to conformity to nature. Just as war and migration are permanent components of human history, a similar determination can be made for the control and direction of nature. The important thing here is not to obey nature, but to take nature seriously. 

Taking into account the laws of nature and how the violence of nature is to learn and implement how it will be made harmless. Man does not surrender to the violence of nature, but has to learn about it and take precautions accordingly. 

Wherever you go in the world The nature you will see is not natural nature, but nature, which is a human product. It can be said that there is no place where a person does not influence or change by using different techniques. This replacement is not necessarily good. For example, air pollution is one of the results of rapid industrialization and unplanned urbanization, or it is a human product. Likewise, preventing floods by opening irrigation channels is human work. 

Continuously developed technique provides great opportunities for human beings. becomes guiding in the face of nature, which it used to be passive. It may not prevent some of the violence of nature such as earthquakes, but it can reduce or even eliminate its harmful effects.
