Difference between natural disaster and anthropogenic disaster
Answers
Answer:
Disasters are undesirable and often sudden events causing human, material, economic and/or environmental losses, which exceed the coping capability of the affected community or society. They are caused either by natural forces/processes (known as ‘natural disasters’) or by human actions, negligence, or errors (known as ‘anthropogenic disasters’’). Natural disasters are generally classified into three major groups (i) ‘geophysical disasters’ (e.g., earthquake, volcanic eruption, rockfall, landslide, avalanche, and subsidence); (ii) ‘hydro-meteorological disasters’ (e.g., flood, drought, storm, extreme temperature, wildfire, and wet mass movement); and (iii) ‘biological disasters’ (e.g., epidemic, insect infestation, and animal stampede). Similarly, anthropogenic disasters are broadly classified into two major groups (i) ‘technological disasters’ (e.g., disasters due to engineering failures, transport disasters, and environmental disasters); and (ii) ‘sociological disasters’
