Why do these natural disaster happens frequently now? Look at the recent damage by Tornado in USA. over 300 people became homeless and massive destruction too. Japan has collapsed after Tsunami and Earthquake.
Your thoughts please.

Is it really more frequent? I mean, I know its more frequent than what we have experienced in OUR lifetimes, but in the grand scheme of things, are these events more extreme now than they have been in the past? Loot at the 1908 Messina earthquake/tsunami for example. I guess no one knows exactly how many lives it took, but its estimated to be 100,000-200,000 people. If they really are more frequent.... perhaps the world is coming to an end!

I think you're just paying more attention, and we here about more disasters.

I know scientists have looked at core samples of ice from the arctic and found that we have been in a calm weather pattern for several thousand years and the norm is erratic swings in temps which would lead to more storms and such. plus the fact that the planet is way more populated than even 100 years ago and and our technology can track these storms data and death toll much more accurately and then send the information instantly across the world.
I asked my wife "if the worlds ending on Dec 21, 2012 should we through the end of the world party on the 20Th or the 21? cuz they dont say when on the 21st its gonna end".

I'd say it's likely that the apearence of "natural disasters happen(ing more) frequently" is due to two things working in conjuntion.
1. More people.
- That is, more people to be affected, to make observations, and to communicate those observations to each other.
2. Greater technology.
- Complex technology not only make it easier to communicate with each other, and observe what's going on, it also means there's a better chance of something getting damaged. Cinder block houses hold up better than modern easily duplicated factory houses and giant glass skyscrapers filled with servers and hundreds of computers.

How long has the white man been on this side of the planet? Roughly 400 years? I'd say thats a small reference window to assume a noticeable increase in frequency. Actually, I'd see it as just down right arrogant!

Because some of these "natural disasters" are man made. Climate control is real. The HAARP machine can do many things including start an earthquake. Of course now this tread gets relegated to the conspiracy section to be picked apart by Pris #1...

global warming which could be man made means more violent storms and natural disasters, but how would someone start an earthquake?
