Natural Catastrophes

Natural catastrophes are severe natural events that cause significant damage to environments, properties, and lives. Examples include earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, wildfires, and tsunamis. These events occur due to natural Earth processes like tectonic shifts or weather patterns. While they are inevitable in nature, their impacts can often be mitigated through preparedness, early warning systems, and infrastructure resilience. Understanding these phenomena helps communities better respond and adapt, reducing risks and enhancing safety during such disasters.
