Question

An article on don't be scared, be prepared dealing with natural disasters

Answer 1

                                     Don't Be Scared, Be Prepared

 

Petra Nemcova has very wisely said, “We cannot stop natural disasters but we can arm ourselves with knowledge: so many lives wouldn't have to be lost if there was enough disaster preparedness.” It is quite true life is uncertain and unpredictable only for those who don’t prepare themselves for its uncertainties. Many people lose their life on account of some large scale natural disasters and catastrophes. This large scale loss of property and human life could be prevented if proper preventive measures are taken. Usually the human beings become aware and proactive only after the tragedy strikes its deadly blow!

Natural disasters such as floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and tornados can be tackled and handled quite safely if proper warning and safety measures are taken well in advance. It has been observed that these disasters wreaked quite a havoc when these disasters took the victims by surprise. Wherever there was a warning, and preparedness, there was less destruction and loss.

With all the technological advancement, it is possible now to predict natural disasters well in advance. The weather satellites orbiting the earth, the early warning systems installed at key locations are already doing wonders in keeping millions of people safe. The government and people along with the prediction mechanism further need to work more proactively to be prepared for natural disasters. It is not the infrastructure and means we lack, we lack proper attitude to the disaster.

Answer 2

Answer:

Natural calamities are something that no one has a control over, and it is something that scares most of us.

Due to the changes in climatic conditions caused by human interference, the unpredictability of natural disasters is something that wreaks havoc.

Changes like poor development, unplanned urbanizations etc. have brought about extreme weather conditions that we witness today.

The loss of property and life is immense in such cases, and the only way that one can cope with it is to be prepared.

We should focus on reducing global warming and work towards enhancing the warning systems.

Buildings that are constructed to withstand earthquakes are a smart step towards planning for natural disasters, apart from this, educating people about the protocols of evacuation, too can go a long way and help immensely.
