natural disaster speech in english

Good morning everyone present here. I am going to express my views on 'Natural Disasters'. 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 tornadoes 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 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 need of the hour is Government and people along with the prediction mechanism further must work more proactively to be prepared for natural disasters. It is not the infrastructure and means we lack; we lack proper attitude to the disasters. So, we must set our attitude right.
Hope it helps you
