Answer:

All kinds of human activities leave the indelible imprint on nature, whether we like it or not. Scientists focus extensively on estimating the level of human engagement to the occurrence of natural disasters. Some people still doubt that humanity is able to influence nature to that extent; however, pallid statistics claim the opposite.

Humans are able to affect nature, but only indirectly.

For example, we can knock down a forest, which makes the possibility of a landslide or flood more likely.

But the first thing that came to my mind is that we make disasters worse because our growing populations mean that higher populations and more property exist in locations. In other words, more people and more property are in areas.

For example, humans have been flocking to the coastal areas for years. And we see the effects of that.

In 1969, Hurricane Camille struck the US Gulf Coast, killing about 140 people in the area. Nearly 50 years later, around 1,800 people perished when Hurricane Katrina struck shore.

Part of the reason so many people does was that the number of people caught in the storm was higher. This meant that more lives were in danger.

So, population growth is one of the biggest factors to the destructive power of disasters.
