The Environmental Disasters of War

War of the Environment War Iraq War is a war that creates many after effects. Land, air, water will definitely be the target. War inevitably affects the environment. The use of weapons of mass destruction is one of the reasons that war may lead to disastrous consequences. They contain many hazardous chemicals that are targeted to the environment and cause waste to be contained in the atmosphere. Due to the explosion many natural resources on the planet are destroyed, weapons of mass destruction will also damage the layout of the environment.

On various occasions in history, the Earth was forced to bear some of the most serious environmental hazards caused by human activities. Disasters include warfare, nuclear explosion, outflow of chemical substances, leakage of toxic gases, oil spills, etc. Every time these disasters occur, the environmental impact is very serious and can be felt for hundreds of years. In some cases, property and life are still damaged and can not be completely repaired or compensated. London, the center of the industrial revolution, is one of the countries that affects industrialized markets. Therefore, there is a large amount of energy use, especially the use of coal. This normally releases pollutants from the atmosphere and makes people get used to seeing fog and contaminated air. However, in 1952, this pollution became miserable. Its winter, the weather was very cold, and the residents burned more coal than usual to relieve the cold.

In the 1950s it was an era of relatively quiet natural disasters, but the beginning of the Cold War has influenced the purpose of disaster reduction. First, nuclear war and nuclear depression are the main focus. Secondly, there was the idea of ​​disaster prevention. As a result, state and municipalities have developed civil defense programs to prepare for possible nuclear attacks. The head of these programs has become the first recognized face of US emergency management. In the next decade, large-scale natural disasters require federal primary response and recovery action. In 1960, the Hebugen earthquake struck the rural area of ​​Montana, hurricane Donna hit the West Coast of Florida. The following year, Hurricane Kara destroyed Texas. President Kennedy established an emergency countermeasure office to deal with natural disasters in 1961 in order to change the fragmented federal disaster relief program.
