And which year has the least?

The year we had the largest number of affected people was 2014 with 39.9 million people
affected while 2007 has the least number of people affected with 4.2 million individuals affected.

5. What can be implied from the trend shown in the data shown below? Explain your answer.

It can imply that the number of disasters occurred in a year isn’t proportionate to the damages it
incur. The disaster response of the authorities, the preparedness of the citizens, as well as the magnitude
of the disaster are huge factors in the statistics shown in the image; therefore, the data will fluctuate
whenever there’s a change in any of those three whether it be positive or a negative. However, it will
steadily increase as the population increases; the bigger the population, the longer and harder it is to
educate and help them; and the bigger the population, the bigger the resources lost, either to the disaster
or by helping those affected by it.
