Natural Disasters

Natural disasters refer to catastrophic events that occur due to natural processes of the Earth, resulting in significant damage to the environment, property, and loss of life. These events can include earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, droughts, wildfires, and landslides. Natural disasters are typically characterized by their sudden onset and the widespread impact they can have on human communities and ecosystems. The severity of these events can be influenced by various factors, including geographic location, climate conditions, and human preparedness and response. As a result, natural disasters often lead to emergency situations requiring coordinated efforts for rescue, recovery, and rebuilding, highlighting the need for effective disaster management and mitigation strategies.
