Good morning teacher and

classmates, today I will talk about


natural disasters.

What are natural disasters?


Natural disasters are natural
events that cause significant
human or matirial losses. They
are quérecteraiz by being
genereired by necher and by
having a serious impact on sosaí-
ris. Some natural disasters are
earthquakes, volquenic eroptions,
and tsunamis.

Another characteristic of natural


disasters is that human beings
cannot do anything to prevent
them, nor can they influence to
reduce their intensity. The only
measures that societies can take
against these disasters is
monitoring and prevention.
Natural disasters usually cause
great material and economic
losses, and many times they also
cost the lives of many people.

Natural disasters are caused by


the irruption of an extreme natural
phenomenon that negatively
affects the population of a certain
place. Earthquakes, for example,
are produced by a sudden
movement of the earth's crust and
are usually very difficult to
anticipate and predict. For this
reason, they often surprise the
population, which sometimes does
not have time to take the
necessary precautionary
measures to protect themselves.
Other phenomena such as
hurricanes or volcanic eruptions
usually give more time in
advance, and with proper
monitoring of their evolution they
can be predicted several days in
advance.
