We should be alarmed by earthquakes due to their potential to cause significant destruction, loss of life, and long-term economic impacts. Earthquakes can strike without warning, leading to collapsed buildings, infrastructure damage, and disruption of essential services. Additionally, regions near fault lines may experience frequent seismic activity, making preparedness and awareness crucial for minimizing risks. Understanding and respecting the dangers of earthquakes can help communities better prepare and respond effectively.
An intensity 4 earthquake on the Mercalli Intensity Scale is described as "light." At this level, people may feel the shaking indoors, but most will not be alarmed. Some objects may be knocked over, and hanging items might sway, but there is generally little to no damage to buildings. It is noticeable but often not strong enough to cause significant concern.
