Weather Patterns and Climate Change Every place‚ country‚ city‚ region has its own climate. Climate plays one of the important roles in people’s life.

World At Risk Global Hazards There are different types of hazard 1) A hazard is something that’s a potential threat to human life or property. 2) Natural hazards are cause by natural processes. 3) Natural hazards can be divided into two types: * Hydro-meteoroidal hazards (caused by climatic processes)- these include droughts‚ floods‚ tropical cyclones and storms. * Geophysical hazards (caused by land processes) – these include earthquakes‚ volcanic eruptions and landslides.
