| New Zealand sits on two tectonic plates, the Pacific and the Australian. These techtonic plates are constantly moving which results in a lot of geological activity. Some of this activity can result in natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions and earthquakes, but other geological activity can be beneficial for people living in New Zealand. For example, there are many hot springs, hot pools, and mud pools which are generated by New Zealand's own thermal energy source. |
