Do all earthquakes cause damage?
• There are more than 8,000 minor earthquakes every day on our planet.
• Less than 100 are strong enough for us to feel.

What causes earthquakes?
• The earth’s crust is made up of moving plates.
• When the plates meet at a fault and push against each other, it causes the plates to break or crack.
• The crack sends waves or vibrations around the earth known as an earthquake.
