​NATURAL DISASTER

​A natural disaster is a major catastrophic event caused by natural processes of the Earth. Some examples of natural disasters are floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, and other geological processes. Another cause of extreme natural events is climate change. This is a very serious problem nowadays. The records for average annual temperatures are broken over and over. It is clear that the situation is grave, not only for scientists and politicians, but also for industries and business. Climate change may also have consequences on the laws and rules in society. For example, governments can create laws to regulate pollution and carbon emissions. They can also create laws to make sure the citizens are safe in case of any natural disaster. We have to do something, before it’s too late.
