LET US REMEMBER
I have learned the different geological hazards: landslides and sinkholes.
A landslide is defined as the movement of a mass of rock, debris, or earth down a slope.
While a sinkhole is is a depression in the ground that has no natural external surface
drainage.
I have learned to analyze the causes of geological hazards (landslide and sinkhole). A
landslide usually happens if caused by disturbances in the natural stability of a slope.
They can accompany heavy rains or follow droughts, earthquakes, or volcanic eruptions.
A sinkhole occurs if the land surface above collapses or sinks into the cavities or when
surface material is carried downward into the voids. Drought, along with resulting high
groundwater withdrawals, can make conditions favorable for sinkholes to form.
I have learned to recognize signs of impending geological hazards (landslide and
sinkhole). The warning signs of an impending landslide include:
• Newly cracked pavement, foundation, support walls, sidewalks
• Tilted or cracked chimney
• Doors or windows that stick or jam for the first time
• Outside walls, walkways, or stairs start pulling away from the house • Soil moves away
from the foundation
• Plumbing or gas lines develop leaks
• Bulging ground at base of slope
• Leaning fence posts or retaining walls
• Springs, seeps, or saturated soil in areas that have been typically dry • Cracks in the
ground
• Tilted tress or utility poles

While for an impending sinkhole, the signs to recognize include :

• Fresh cracks in the foundations of houses and buildings
• Cracks in interior walls
• Cracks in the ground outsides
• Doors or windows become difficult to open or close
• Rapid appearance of a hole in the ground
• Muddy or cloudy well water
• Depressions in the ground
• Trees or fence posts that tilt or fall
• Previously buried items becoming exposed as the ground sinks
• Vegetation that wilts as essential water is drawn away by the sinkhole
• Formation of small ponds as rainfall accumulates in new areas
• Circular pattern of ground crack

LANDSLIDE MODEL

MATERIALS:

PROCEDURES:

• First, I used papers below the sand so that the sand would be firm and strong.

 Second, I poured the sand on top of the newspaper to make a slope land.
  Third, I put the house on the sand to make my model semi-realistic. Chos .

 Finally, I poured the water to simulate heavy rain.

FINAL OUTPUT:
SINKHOLE MODEL
MATERIALS:

PROCEDURES:

 First, I poured the sand on the container.

 Second, I put the cut jar at the center of the sand to represent the sinkhole.
  Finally, I poured the remaining sand on the side of the sinkhole to complete the
model.

Activity 8. Fast Talk!
1. Hazard Mapping is important because it provide important information to help people
understand the risks of natural hazards and to help mitigate disasters. Hazard maps
indicate the extent of expected risk areas, and can be combined with disaster management
information such as evacuation sites, evacuation routes, and so forth.
2. Knowing the signs of possible hyrometeorological hazards is beneficial because
monitoring and forecasting of the occurrence, intensity, and evolution of
hydrometeorological extreme events have been critical components for a variety of
humanitarian and government agencies in their efforts to prepare, mitigate, and manage
responses to disaster, aiming at saving lives and limiting damage.
3. The use of different monitoring tools provide us to reduce the risk and cost of downtime.
A central enterprise monitoring tool can predict problems throughout the infrastructure,
and teams can work to address those issues before downtime occurs. In addition, when the
mean time to repair problems is reduced, the associated costs also go down.

Short Essay:
1. Explain the importance of preparing emergency and evacuation plans during
fires.
- A fire emergency evacuation plan details how you and your staff, throughout the
building, can exit in a safe and appropriate manner. This plan also documents the
arrangements for calling the fire brigade and where emergency equipment and first aid
supplies are stored. It ensures the necessary measures are in place to protect a building's
occupants. Effective planning will also make sure vulnerable building occupants -- such as
those with mobility impairments - have a safe means of evacuation in the event of an
emergency situation.

Guide Questions:
1. Based on the picture, was our country shows preparedness during the typhoon Ondoy?
Why? – no, even the people weren’t prepared at that time. Based on the picture, the bridge
collapsed and the people and vehicles are involved. This also mean that the materials used
in the bridge are not durable enough to hold the people and the vehicles from the typhoon.
2. Why there are several casualties during the typhoon Ondoy? – because the people
weren’t prepared enough to know how dangerous a typhoon could bring.
3. What are the initiatives done by the government after the incident of typhoon Ondoy? –
there are relief goods given by the government and some medical help to those people who
are injured in the typhoon.
4. How important is disaster risk reduction management during this time?- DRRM helps to
reduce the damge caused by disasters that will come and avoid the potential loses and
some appropriate assistance to the victims.
5. Do you think, each of us would embrace knowledge and skills about DRR and DRRM?
Why? – yes, all of us needs more information and knowledge about DRR and DRRM so that
we are prepared for every disaster that will happen in the near future.

Based on the given definitions, kindly select two terms that you need to expound based on
your understanding. Maximum of 100 words each for the elaboration of thoughts.

1. Contingency plan
- It is defined as a plan of action intended to assist an organization in responding to an
event that may or may not occur, contingency plan are often known as “Plan B” plans since
they can be used as a backup if things doesn’t go as expected. Assume a group of employees
from a corporation is travelling together on the plane that crashes, killing everyone on
board. The goal of any contingency plan is to allow an organization to resume normal
operations as soon as possible after an unexpected event. The contingency plan safeguards
resources, reduces customer inconvenience, and identifies key personnel, assigning specific
responsibilities in the context of recovery.

2. Risk Communication
- it refers to the real-time exchange of information, advice and opinions between experts
and people facing threats for their health, economic or social well-being. The ultimate goal
of risk communication is an important tool for disseminating information and gaining
comprehension of a risk management decision. This comprehension and information
should enable stakeholders to reach an informed decision about how the decision will
affect their interest and values. It is also an essential component of risk management in
public health.
