Disaster and Natural Disasters Executive Summary Reginna suffered a tornado for the first time on June 30, 1912, but so far it is the most deadly tornado for all mankind in Canada. The size of the tornado is F4, wind speed is 333-418 km / h. It produced 18 kilometers south of Regina, proceeding north through the city and passing it in about 3 minutes. In this case, a total of 28 people were killed, more than 200 people were injured, more than 2,500 people were homeless, and a large currency loss of 1.2 million dollars occurred over time, which caused Regina to pay debts for reconstruction costs.
Natural disaster: Natural disasters are natural processes that can cause life, injury, other health effects, physical damage, loss of livelihoods and services, social and economic damage, or environmental damage or It is a phenomenon Earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, floods, snowstorms, tsunamis and hurricanes are all natural disasters. India is facing many disasters such as floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunami, droughts, landslides. Recent disasters in India include the floods in Uttarakhand State, the hurricane "vardah" in Chennai, the repeated earthquake in northern India, the Super Cyclone in Orissa State in 1999, the Phuket in Gujarat Province in 2001, and so on. In 2005, the earthquake, the 2004 tsunami, the Mumbai - Gujarat Province were flooded. In addition, India had to suffer from technical tragedy in the form of Bhopal's natural gas tragedy in 1984. India also faces plague in Gujarat

It can lead to financial, environmental or human loss. The damage that occurs will depend on the vulnerability to the hazard of the affected people. This is also called resilience. This understanding focuses on development. "When disasters encounter vulnerabilities, disasters can occur." Therefore, a natural disaster occurs
Most of what we call natural disasters (tornadoes, droughts, hurricanes) is actually natural, but human contribution may increase its potential and strength. But they are not disasters - it is dangerous. Even if a hurricane hits a land where no one lives, it is not a disaster but the weather. A disaster is a natural disaster that matches the population. Usually this intersection is far from natural. If Houston's community is found to be most vulnerable to hurricane Harvey, most damage is not only predictable but also predicted. In 2016, ProPublica announced a detailed article explaining that lack of plans could make urban residents very vulnerable to hurricanes. The city permitted the entire block to emerge in areas where the Army Corps of Engineers knew that it would flood during the heavy rain. The 1996 report urged Harris County with Houston to take measures to mitigate the risk. It will be ignored. Harvey is a strong weather phenomenon.
