Scientists warn of an impending Cascadia Megaquake—a massive mega-seaquake brewing beneath the Pacific Northwest that could devastate the entire West Coast of America. This future megaquake could reach a magnitude of 9.0 or higher, triggering immense tsunamis and widespread destruction across coastal cities like Seattle, Portland, and San Francisco. The Cascadia Subduction Zone lies silent now, but pressure is building, creating the potential for one of the most powerful earthquakes in history. In this documentary, we’ll dive into the science of subduction zones, the potential impacts on millions of lives, and why experts believe this disaster is a matter of “when,” not “if.” Learn what’s being done to prepare and how a quake of this scale could reshape America’s west coast forever.
