Katrina was a Hurricane (a natural disaster), not a man-made disaster. Although there were man-made levies & dikes that broke or were topped by water, it was nature that caused it. Man's efforts (or failures) to prevent or reduce the impact of a Hurricane's damage are not the cause of the Hurricane.
