I LOVE Chile. It's easily my favourite SA country - everywhere south of Santiago is stunning, the people are great (particularly the honeys), and the seafood is world beating.
However. Nature is nature, tectonics are tectonics, and rearrangement of continents has been happening for ever, and will continue. New amazing stuff will appear. We may or may not be here to see it - as always.
I appreciate your horror at the destruction of beautiful stuff - but that's how the Earth works. Always has, always will. New beautiful stuff is coming. That's how the old beautiful stuff got there in the first place.
Good luck to the people of Chile - I ****in' love it and I will be back.
