"The Pacific Ring of Fire"

The Pacific Ring of Fire is a shaped area in the Pacific Ocean (from South America and North America to Eastern Asia, Australia and New Zealand). Here we can find an enormous amount of active volcanoes. This area is near to several tectonic plates; that's why there its a constant seismic activity.

This place has a total of 452 volcanoes, some of the world’s most active ones . For example Kilauea, the most active volcano in the world.
Most of the volcanoes we can find here could cause a lot of trouble for most of the people living nearby, that's why there are several risk factors that they have to be ready for.

The Pacific Ring of Fire, in relation to the past, isn't the same nowadays . And, this is because of the tectonic plates movements that can cause new volcanoes.
