How do global infrastructure investment needs compare to Greece's, and what are the main contributing factors driving this worldwide demand?

Globally, non-energy infrastructure investment needs are estimated at $11.5 trillion (€13.3 trillion) by 2035. This reflects the need for annual investments of almost 3.5% of global GDP in social, transport, and digital infrastructure resilient to urbanization, climate change, supply chain disruptions, and AI-driven digitalization. Many developed nations face challenges from aging mid-20th-century infrastructure.

What factors contribute to the heightened risk of flash flooding and landslides in the affected areas?

The saturated ground, combined with predicted rainfall rates up to 3 inches per hour, significantly increases the risk of flash floods, landslides, and rock slides. This is especially concerning during the evening commute when the heaviest rain is expected. Both New Jersey and New York City are taking proactive measures to mitigate potential damage and ensure public safety.

How did the tsunami's crossing of the International Date Line affect the timeline of events and the perception of the disaster?

The tsunami's eastward propagation across the International Date Line resulted in a time discrepancy; waves reaching Hawaii on Tuesday evening originated from an earthquake on Wednesday morning in Russia. This highlights the global interconnectedness of such events and the rapid dissemination of warnings across international borders. The varied impact, from minor waves in Japan to larger ones in Hawaii, underscores the influence of geographic factors and local conditions on tsunami severity.
