Chloe Walker- Bali volcano eruption fears spark exodus of more than 35,000

On the Indonesian island of Bali, tremors have begun to shake the region. More than 35,000 fled in fear of the volcano erupting again. Cabinet member Luhut Binsar Panjaitan, stated that the surrounding districts "must be prepared for the worst". Those living in the danger zone now live in temporary shelters, aided with tents, blankets, and mattresses. Due to the countries location on the Ring of Fire, they are more vulnerable to seismic disturbance.

The article was created by Firdia Lisnawati. The article was created on September 24, 2017 at Bali, Indonesia. I had no previous knowledge about this article. I now have a better understanding about the Volcano activity in Bali. This article was an informative text written for those who were not aware of the events going on in Bali, Indonesia. This article is important because it keeps us aware of the global events going on outside of the United States. I can connect this article with previous events involving seisms activity or earthquakes, such as the recent earthquake in Mexico City.
