Next

 

Human has made much progress in the field of science and technology. Human has created wealth out of natural resources for his comfortable living. Man has cut forests recklessly to clear the land for cultivation and along with this ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION has taken place, which also affects his life.

Include industrial accidents, shootings, acts of terrorism, and incidents of mass violence. As with natural disasters, these types of traumatic events may also cause loss of life and property. They may also prompt evacuations from certain areas and overwhelm behavioral health resources in the affected communities.

A disaster is a serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society involving widespread human, material, economic or environmental loss and impacts, which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources.

A disaster event caused directly and principally by one or more identifiable deliberate or negligent human action.

Human made disaster can be intentional or unintentional. It results in huge loss of life and property. If further affects a person’s mental, physical and social well-being.

 

                                                                   

 

Human made disasters are usually the result of things going wrong in our complex technological society. They include: blackouts, hazardous material spills, air pollution, house fires, radiation leaks, food or water contamination, and industrial chemical releases etc.
