Answer:

Natural disasters are large-scale geological or meteorological events that have the potential to cause loss of life or property. These types of disasters include:

Tornadoes and Severe Storms

Hurricanes and Tropical Storms

Floods

Wildfires

Earthquakes

Drought

Drought: Droughts happen when there is not enough rain for a long period of time. It's not like a dry spell - there is so little precipitation (rain, snow, sleet or any kind of moisture) that a whole region starts to dry out. Sometimes a drought takes decades to develop fully and they are very difficult to predict.

Prevention: Avoiding Overuse

Being mindful of the amount of water you use each day can be a powerful way to prevent droughts. Turning off the faucet while you brush your teeth, watering your garden early in the morning so less water evaporates, and installing low-flow plumbing fixtures all are good ways to prevent wasted water.

Hope it helps you!
