England's Unknown Attributes

             England is seen as the counter-part or great-grandfather to the USA. It only makes sense to be

curious about our founding fathers' native land. It's wide range of landscapes, from rolling hill to it's

densely populated metropolitan cities, it makes this country very attractive to many people. However, 

there are some natural events such as hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes, tornados and even 

avalanches that may have travelers thinking twice. 

               Now we should define the clear distinction between hazards, disasters, and 

catastrophes. Hazards can be defined as a natural process or event that has the potential threat to 

human life and property. Disasters are explained as a hazardous event that occurs over a limited time 

span within a defined area. The ordeal in Flint, Mighican can be described as a disaster because it's 

very hazardous to have lead in public water but, it was only retained to that area. Next, a catastrophe 

is defined as a massive disaster that requires significant expenditure of money and a long time (years) 

for recovery. As given in the powerpoint the best example would be Hurricane Katrina. Till next 

time.
