Earthquakes - the decade's deadliest killer
Earthquakes killed more people in the last 10 years than any other natural hazard, said new figures released by the Belgium-based Centre for Research on Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED) a few weeks after the recent quake in Haiti, in which more than 112 000 people are known to have died so far.
Almost 60% of the people killed by natural disasters between 2000 and 2009 perished in earthquakes, followed by 22% in storms, and 11 percent as a result of extreme temperatures.
