L'Aguila EQ 2009 & Haiti EQ 2010
L'Aguila 2009 vs Haiti 2010
Starting with Youtube spend some time watching some videos. Firstly just to get a feel for the two events.
The EFFECTS of these two EQ's are easy to compare. Facts and figures etc. As you watch note down any glaringly obvious statistics that are easily comparable.
You MUST be able to compare the post event management. Both Short and Long Term.
