Mega-Tsunami Threats to US Coastlines
Three US regions—Alaska, Hawaii, and the West Coast—face significant mega-tsunami risks from landslides, volcanic collapses, and earthquakes, as demonstrated by historical events like Alaska's 1958 Lituya Bay mega-tsunami and the 1700 Cascadia mega-tsunami.

Messina Strait Bridge Design Raises Earthquake Safety Concerns
The proposed Messina Strait Bridge may be structurally inadequate for major earthquakes due to design underestimation of ground acceleration, contrasting with more stringent standards used for critical global infrastructure, especially considering active faults in the area.
