ACTIVITY 1.1
Give one natural phenomenon that can become a hazard
Tornado
Tornado is a narrow,
violently rotating
column of air that
extends from a
thunderstorm to the
ground.
Where Do Tornadoes Occur?
These violent storms occur around the world, but the
United States is a major hotspot with about a thousand
tornadoes every year.

How Does a Tornado Occur?

Tornadoes are formed when moist, warm air collides with
cool, dry air.
 Warning Signs Damage Dealt
of a Tornado by a Tornado
I. Existence of Rotating
Clouds

II. Occurence of Large Hail

The damage it causes are in
III. A Loud Rumbling Sound
the form of destruction of
or A Roaring Noise infrastructures, and the
possible loss of lives.
Who Would Be Affected?
Everyone nearby the area where a tornado strikes are all
affected and in grave danger.

How Does It Change People’s

Lives?
It affects them in a way that it interferes with their normal
day to day life as they’re forced to always be prepared as
the forming of a tornado can happen in an instant.
5 Most Powerful When Can a
Tornado Strikes Tornado Become
1) The Tri-State tornado (March a Hazard?
18,1925)
A tornado will be considered
2) Natchez Tornado (May 6,1840) as a hazard when it enters the
3) St Louis Tornado (May 27,1896) scale that people use to
measure the destructiveness
4) Tupelo Tornado (April 5, 1936) of a tornado relative to its
5) Daulatpur–Saturia Tornado speed.
(April 26, 1989)
ENHANCED FUJITA SCALE DAMAGE

EF-0 (65-86 MPH) LIGHT

EF-1 (86-110 MPH) MODERATE
EF-2 (111-135 MPH) CONSIDERABLE
EF-3 (136-165 MPH) SEVERE
EF-4 (166-200 MPH) DEVASTATING
EF-5 (200+ MPH) INCREDIBLE
Does Size Matter?
The size of a tornado matters for the most powerful
tornadoes that occurred on the Earth are all gigantic in
size.

Why Do People Live in Hazardous

Areas?
People choose to live in these areas due to various reasons.
One of which is that it is the only place they consider as
home.
What Should People Do to
Prevent Disasters?
People could prevent disaster from happening by being
prepared all the time.

What are the Significance of These Areas?

These areas are

important to know
because it provides
people awareness over
which areas are safe and
which areas to avoid.
 Recommended Areas for
Commercial/Residential Use

It is preferable to use the

areas with minimal risk of
landslide

These areas are certain to

be safe which is why it is
also sure to be great to
invest within these areas.

ACTIVITY 3.1
Human and economic impacts of recent disasters
2004 Indian Ocean When and Where
Earthquake and Did it Originate?
Tsunami
December 26, 2004 (7:59 AM)
- an undersea earthquake
with a magnitude of 9.1
struck off the coast of the
Indonesian island of
Sumatra.

- over the next 7 hours, the

quake triggered a massive
tsunami.
How Extensive was
the Area Affected? No Disaster Forecast
14 countries were affected, No disaster forecast was
The hardest-hit and most issued to the public as
severely affected countries there is no way to tell
were: when an earthquake
would occur.
• India • Sri Lanka
• Indonesia • Thailand
• Maldives
 167,540
Death Toll of the Disaster in Indonesia

Death Toll of the Disaster

The number of injured and missing people also
reached thousands. No currency known to man can
make up for all these losses and injuries.
What Could Have Prevented the Disaster?

The complete prevention of this

disaster is impossible but the
impacts to people could have been
lessened. If only the Indonesian
authorities were able to send an
alert internationally early on.
Damage Cost
in Indonesia is about A decade after the
disaster, Indonesian
0.6% economy have been
able to recover and
of its total GDP for the year the province of Aceh is
fully reconstructed.
2004
Rescue, Relief, and Rehabilitation

$15 Billion
is the total cost of the humanitarian relief
response across the countries of
India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Thailand.

The loss of lives is by far the worst effect

that cannot be recovered during aid and
assistance.
How Justified are Pre-
Disaster Measures and
Expenditures?

It is not justified for there are little

to no pre-disaster measures that
have been done in order to
possibly mitigate the hazardous
phenomena.
