In January 2010, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake hit the island of Haiti. According to the United States Geological Survey (2011), “316,000 people were killed, 300,000 injured, 1.3 million displaced, 97,294 houses destroyed and 188,383 damaged in the Port-au-Prince area and in much of southern Haiti.” *in voiceover*

Natural disasters are UNPREDICTABLE.

The damage is UNPREDICTABLE.

Following these slides, I would like a few pictures of the damage caused by the 2010 Haiti Earthquake. About 3 to 5 pictures would suffice. Each one popping up onto the screen for 5 seconds and then fading out for the next to appear.

Why not make a difference before the storm? *include clipart picture of a storm cloud, tornado, etc*

Out with Tents. In with SICPs!! *include a picture of a tent crossed out and a picture of an SICP taking its place*
