The occurrence of natural hazard has risen substantially over the past 20 years. “According to the figures released today by CRED [the center for research on epidemiology of disasters] in Geneva, 3,852 disasters killed more than 780,000 people over the past 10 years, affected more than 2 billion others and cost a minimum of US$960 billion.”
(Fraster,2010) How astonishing it is. On the causes of natural disasters, people have never stopped researching from science or theological areas. There are quite range of evidences to prove that the causes of natural disasters by natural regularity, but there are also valid reasons for it was God’s commands. In the field of theological, many religionists think that natural disasters are the punishments of God. However, most of modern people believe all of the natural hazards are nature laws. In this blog, it will specifically at the consequences of natural disasters on people’s psychic and the natural regularity.
wow...Good blog and topic..:)
ReplyDeleteRecently, many country had earthquake in this year. Start from Haiti, china, Indonesia, japan and lastly korea...
Our nature is getting sick but people can not fix. maybe people can just delay the time of disasters.
Every people should know causes of disaster and try to save the nature (earth).
Give warming to all people by advertisements through a variety of media...
It could be the good way for saving and protecting the nature or earth.
You have used a great use of facts to back up your claims which is really good. ALso your reference list was helpful. It is really interesting to see that all these earthquakes are happeneing now days and apparently earthquakes can be a sign of the earth ending. All these natural disaters cannot be good for our earth and all these disaters are apparently going to happen close to the time of the world ending. I really want to watch the movie 2012 cuz I think that explains alot about things like this also. Great topic and very informative. And in the end though who really knows when the earth will finnaly come to an end?
ReplyDeleteNatural disasters are a seveare problem in todays world, they can wreck havvoc on towns, and destroy entire cities (like what recently happened in Haiti). This blog was interesting to read, and the facts that you have are highly interesting and a good way to back up what you are saying. I espically enjoied this section on earthquakes, it seemed very informitave, and an interesting read.
ReplyDeleteNatural disasters seem to be unrelenting, at some place in the world there always seems to be either an earthquake/volcano erruption/hurricane/tornado, the list is unending, and many many people do believe this to be a sign from the heavens. I myself take the more practicle view, and believe they are caused by change (for example the icecaps melting causing floods), and believe them to be almost a chain reaction from our activity on the planet.
