The pacific ring of fire

The pacific ring of fire is well-known for being an area on the pacific ocean, which lengthens New Zealand, Australia, South America, North America and Eastern Asia. The area is popular for having 75% percent of the world's volcanoes, approximately 452, either active or inactive ones. This phenomenon may be justified by the big amounts of tectonic plates around it, what leads to changes, just as earthquakes, caused by the crush of the many tectonic plates. So, it's very risky for people living in the surroundings, only taking on account that 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur there, apart from the volcanoes eruptions.
