The 20th century progress turned sad consequences for the Earth. Technogenic catastrophes, contamination of soil and air, uncontrolled mining of minerals and raw materials - all this gave birth to ghost cities in Russia. Among the scientists there is even a hypothesis that the Earth self-cleaning, arranging destructive earthquakes and floods Neftegorsk is once a booming city of oilmen on Sakhalin Island. It was wiped off the face of the earth by a devastating earthquake on May 28, 1995. The strength of the tremors was 9 points. Under the ruins of their homes, 2,040 people were killed. Now, on the site of the once prosperous city of oil workers, there are ruins, over which rises a gloomy memorial
