How can people stop the effects of a natural disaster?
Again this is with not only to the careless people but also the smart ones that know what to do if one strikes.
this chart of things will tell you how to escape/recover from a natural disaster. Global warming is caused by the green house gases we produce that kills our atmosphere making the average global temperature increasing which is why the ice caps are melting. this is increasing water levels and now is creating more hurricanes and more floods around the world.
People can prevent a natural disaster for instance a fire: 1. flush out a fire(campfire) before you leave (can cause a forest fire). or a can stop smog if we stopped driving cars so much or any transportation devices.

Heavy Precipitation
Rain, snow and all other precipitation seems light soft and usually means that the seasons have changed for different types of precipitation for instance, usually in winter you get snow or freezing rain, in spring you usually get rain and little snow, in the summer you get tons of rain, drizzle and hail for the fall there are the same things as summer but snow is added to the list. in winter has the worst heavy snowfall that can be turned to a snow squall or can be turned into a blizzard. in the summer, you'd probably get heavy rain fall which could trigger a flood or sever amounts of hail from a sever storm. the types of precipitation are rain, snow, sleet, freezing rain, dry snow, hail etc.

Other types of tornados
Tornadoes are the deadliest natural disaster on land and is the only natural disaster that has three types (the same as floods)
these types of tornadoes are still as dangerous as the original funnel cloud tornadoes:
these types of tornadoes are still as dangerous as the original funnel cloud tornadoes:
- Dust devils: in desert areas, funnel clouds form on the sand and can still hurl someone up in the air
2. Waterspouts: an unleash of power within these funnel clouds that form over lakes or rivers and is usually mistaken for an ordinary tornado
and lastly believe it or not there are such things as 3. firenadoes: a funnel cloud that has formed over a fire or a gas station which makes this tornado "Fiery"
Cold waves and Heat waves
cold waves, a wave of cold air settles for about 1 or more days that the temperature has fallen to below -30 Celsius in which is also known as wind chill watch by environment Canada. Heat waves are the opposite, instead of going below -30 degrees, it goes above 30 degrees Celsius although it seems nice to have a heat wave but it is not because this is also related to a drought

volcanoes and tectonic shift
volcanoes, the mountains that spew liquid/ molten rock called lava or magma. The ring of fire is the most famous ring for volcanoes due to its size and accompanied by so much volcanoes and mountains.
tectonic plates move from the convection from the earth's mantle which moves/pushes the tectonic plates ( the crust). There are three types of plate movements:
1. converging plates moving together
2. diverging plates moving away
and
3. Transform slide past each other
Other effects is earthquakes, tsunamis and creates other fault lines.

Floods and it's opposite
Floods, a puddle large enough and as deep enough to be what ever height. Hurricanes, dams and monsoons can created small, medium sized or GIGANTIC puddles that can be made quickly or periods and periods over time. puddles can create famine and damaging effects to plants, and animals that either drown or die from either being planted to the ground or an animal that cannot swim. floods are the equally a part of natural disasters by the damaging deaths to the worlds population.
Droughts and dust bowls are the opposites of the flood instead of getting lots and lots of water you'd get very little rain for many years or months

Biological Hazards
This type of natural disaster is nothing what is like the other types of natural disaster for this because it's living.
Micro-organisms, living organisms, viruses and toxins are all types of biological hazards. Humans are creating biological hazards of when they test animals for products and all the time something goes wrong.
insects, rodents and also unwanted pests carriers hazards for both humans and other animals.
Airborne and from direct impact (bites and infections from cuts) are the two ways that biological hazards move and spread to living thing to living thing. causes diseases, cancers, infections and also mutations and mutated genes.

Epidemics
The natural and also the manufactured natural disaster. the spread of diseases and is the invisible without the microscope. epidemics are invisible to the naked eye and you can't hear them, feel them or taste them. Colds, flu's, aids and other fatal and non fatal sicknesses are all epidemics. There are cures for all known sicknesses except for any sexual interaction or some cancer.
Earthquakes And Other Effects
Earthquakes are the trembling terror when it comes to natural disasters. Earthquakes are created when the contnental boundrys rub or depart from each other causing the earth's crust to crumble. The epicenter of the earthquake is the middle and is the point where it does the most damage. The Richter Scale is a scale that records an earthquake by its movement and the more it moves the larger and more damage it will cause.
The Tsunami is an effect by an earthquake and is a series of multiple waves the come to the land and drags what ever from the land back to the sea.

Hurricanes
Hurricanes, a deadly whorl pool in the sky. the center (* "Eye"*) is clear and can stretch from3 kilometres (1.9 mi) to 370 kilometres (230 mi) in diameter and is another dangerous natural disaster like the tornado. A hurricane forms from great body's of water then starts as a storm depression as it starts to swirl around and creates a hurricane. Other names of hurricanes are also known as typhoon, cyclone, tropical storm and tropical depression. as it proceeds, an hurricane can create other natural disasters like floods, storm surges and also gale force winds.
Hurricanes are recorded on a scale called the Beaufort Scale.
people try to prevent hurricane by seeking a multi story building ( like a hotel) by barrackading the door and windows and help store food for when the storm passes by.
example hurricane Katrina (2005) started at category 1 and then became a category 3 ( Also was the united states most costliest hurricane which had damaged over $81, 000, 000.

Tornadoes And A Bit About Black Friday
Tornadoes is the deadliest natural disaster for mother nature to unleash because in one path it could do not so-much damage, increased damage or sever damage. Black Friday happened on Friday July 31st in the city of Edmonton (Canada) was one of the most destructive tornadoes in Canada. this tornado was known for killing 27 people, injuring over 300 people and left 300 people homeless. This tornado was recorded on the Fujita Scale. Out of 1-5 this tornado was a four and just barley made it to a five (originally the Fujita scale also had a 6
ranking and it was called "The Finger Of God" for its trembling chaos until 2007 where it was changed from having 6 category to 5.

the future of natural diasters
The future of natural disasters would be more fierce and have a great impact not only us but also the environment. Most epidemics are increasing by the new types of diseases or new infections. Although, today we now have the technology to stop flu's, colds and even some cancers!
other common natural disasters like floods or fires could be easily be resolved by (forest fire) washing out the campfire before you leave or else would be easily be resolved, or by barricading a wall with sands to prevent a flood or go to a high place ( like a tsunami).
this future can be prevented by being Eco-friendly and help stop global warming (http://edwinglobalissues.blogspot.com/).

How much damage can a natural disaster have an effect on the enviroment?
the impact on the environment is crucial to the human population. the heavier (stronger) the natural disaster, the more impact is effected to the environment. For example : 1. a tornado in the plains that destroys everything in its path or 2. a huge forest fire in the rainforests or 3. a flash flood in a desert filled with non amphibian creatures that can't swim or fly. The blame for creating natural disasters (even though it is created by nature) but we are the people that are doing nothing and being careless. people say that they do help but all they do is support someone else to SUPPORT THEM!!

well from the pictures below you could obviously see how much damage these guys can do:
