Earthquake is the movement of the tectonic plates.
Flood is when the oceans overflow
When people are dieying without food
When people are dying without food and water
Tsunami is the movement of tectonic plates in the ocean floors
Flood is when the oceans overflow
When people are dieying without food
When people are dying without food and water
Tsunami is the movement of tectonic plates in the ocean floors

an earthquake-An earthquake (or quakes, tremors) is the shaking of the surface of the earth, caused by the sudden movement in the Tectonic Plates. They can be extremely violent or cannot be felt by anyone.
flood-A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land that is usually dry. The European Union (EU) Floods Directive defines a flood as a covering by water of land not normally covered by water. In the sense of "flowing water", the word may also be applied to the inflow of the tide.
drought-A drought is a period of below-average precipitation in a given region, resulting in prolonged shortages in the water supply, whether atmospheric, surface water or ground water. A drought can last for months or years, or may be declared after as few as 15 days.It can have a substantial impact on the ecosystem and agriculture of the affected region and harm to the local economy.Annual dry seasons in the tropics significantly increase the chances of a drought developing and subsequent bush fires. Periods of heat can significantly worsen drought conditions by hastening evaporation of water vapour.
famine-A famine is a widespread scarcity of food,caused by several factors including war, inflation, crop failure, population imbalance, or government policies. This phenomenon is usually accompanied or followed by regional malnutrition, starvation, epidemic, and increased mortality. Every inhabited continent in the world has experienced a period of famine throughout history. In the 19th and 20th century, it was generally Southeast and South Asia, as well as Eastern and Central Europe that suffered the most deaths from famine. The numbers dying from famine began to fall sharply from the 1970s.
Tsunami-tidal wave, also known as a seismic sea wave, is a series of waves in a water body caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, generally in an ocean or a large lake. Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (including detonations of underwater nuclear devices), landslides, glacier calvings, meteorite impacts and other disturbances above or below water all have the potential to generate a tsunami. Unlike normal ocean waves, which are generated by wind, or tides, which are generated by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun, a tsunami is generated by the displacement of water.
