Natural Disester
Introduction
Natural disasters are extreme, sudden events caused by environmental factors. They can happen at any time, often with little or no warning and they can cause serious injury to people and property. Earthquakes, tornadoes, wind storms, floods, tsunamis, wild fires, hurricanes, and heat waves often strike with little or no warning. People who are prepared for such an event have a better chance of survival. Preparation ensures that if disaster occurs people are ready to get through it safely and make an efficient response. Preparedness means figuring out what you'll do when a disaster occurs, planning for problems that may occur during the disaster, and practicing the plan.
A natural disaster is the effect of a natural hazard (e.g., flood, tornado, hurricane, volcanic eruption, earthquake, or landslide). It leads to financial, environmental or human losses.
A natural disaster is an event caused by natural forces of nature that often has a significant effect on human populations. Typically the human populations either are displaced (left homeless) or killed.
Natural disasters are cataclysmic events that can have a direct or indirect impact on the public's health and well-being, according to the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Natural disasters can include weather phenomena as well as landslides and avalanches, which occur as a result of erosion or severe weather patterns.
Tsunami in Japan
A GREAT 8.9 magnitude earthquake has hit the northeastern coast of Japan, quickly followed by a 13-foot tsunami that has devastated the Miyagi shoreline. This major earthquake marks as the largest to hit in Japan's history, and is being added to an Earthquake in Japan 2011 list that already includes the 7.2 quake that hit earlier in the week. Once reported an 8.4 by the Japanese Meteorological Agency, the magnitude of the quake was upgraded to an 8.9 by the The U.S. Geological Survey.
