Tungurahua volcano is getting ready by Natalia Holvova

Ecuadorian active volcano Tungurahua is about to erupt! 10 villages from the western slopes were already evacuated and their dwellers are waiting for the process and effect of the forthcoming explosion. The area that is likely to be touched by lava and ash is full of growing crops that Ecuadorians take care of. The great power of volcano is unpredictable, ruinous and disruptive. There in no weapon that can reverse the natural forces. We are fighting in the wars and killing each other in the wave of iniquities but when the nature decides to take an action and use the power hidden inside of the planet, we are helpless. These are the moments when we do realize our finiteness and vulnerability. We have to face the fact we are so small and so slack. Even we can not change the weather or avert the menace of volcano eruption, we can still do something, we can still save as many as possible by guaranteeing and actual implementation of safety measures. Evacuating, financial and housing support can smooth unpleasant life situations for inhabitants of the befallen or defected areas. Solidarity and subsidiarity are human attributes that prove our pertinence to each other and in cases of unexpected situations such as volcano eruptions we help each other as much as we can to save people under the harrow. We do help each other because we do not know when we personally will need help from strangers. The evacuation in Ecuador is only the first precaution step. After Tungurahua shows its virtue, the evacuation will not be enough. This is a challenge for all of us! No matter how far Ecuador is because people of western slopes are in danger!
