Scientifically, are there any explanations regarding the drastic increase of natural disasters in the past couple years?

There have countless number of Hurricances in the United states for the past couple years and the numbers seem to be increasing every year.

Tsunamis and Earthquakes have also been improved drastically in the 2 years. In the last 2 years, there have been numerous earthquakes with the magnitude of 6.0 and above.

I don’t think this observation is true, at least wrt to earthquakes. They happen to let out more dangerous fury (like a pressure cooker), and from a purely scientific perspective (wrong time though, to say this) is probable good for the earth because earthquakes make the earth less unstable.

Hence earthquakes have been happening all the time and will continue to do so. What is different these days is

1. We get to hear more about them because of advances in communication
2. There are lot more deaths and destruction because of modern buildings - apartments, bridges, roads, etc. Earthquakes don’t kill; deaths occur because of building collapses. This is the reason that fewer animals die than humans.

We still don’t know why the indus valley civilization died. Floods that would put the recent hurricanes to shame
