The drought is wrecking Australia's environment by killing our animals because they have nothing to drink and die off thirst, no water left in the creeks or dams, and the local aboriginies wnt have animals to kill so therfore everyone is bad off when there is a drought in there country ,town , or city.
Consider the meaning of the phrase "natural disaster". The second half the phrase - disaster - insinuates that it must cause considerable damage or else be undesirable to humans. Drought fits that description very well. It is capable of devastating crops and causing famines. The first half of the word - natural - tells us that it must not be caused by humans, but must be a result of the Earth's natural cycles. Although humans may have a slight effect on droughts, their effect is negligible, and droughts are a part of the natural cycles of the Earth. Therefore, droughts are certainly a natural disaster.
-requires alot of space to build dams -dams have chances of breaking, which can cause severe effects on environment, economy, humans -takes a while to build dams -droughts and natural disasters can effect power plants thats about it
conserves natural resources
it destroys our natural mountains. And it also is ugly.
Droughts are an unusual occurrence of low precipitation due to natural weather pattern cycles. Aridity is an area where low precipitation naturally occurs (see also, "rain shadow effect")
Tornadoes can affect a small portion of the natural environment, such as by clearing an area of trees, but overall they have little effect because they are so localized.
the newcastle earth quake wiped out thousands of lives
it adds valuable nutrients but can isolate areas and slow down succession
An ecologist is likely to research both the effect of natural disasters on the environment and the effect of species loss on the environment, as both topics directly pertain to ecological interactions and ecosystem health. However, the effect of species loss on the environment is particularly central to ecology, focusing on biodiversity and its impact on ecosystem functions. The effectiveness of current environmental law, while important, is more aligned with fields like environmental policy or law rather than ecology itself.
Natural resource accounting is an systematic process of analysing and formulating the natural resource depletion. In other words it is an accounting for natural resources similar to profit and loss i.e. harmful effect to the environment and natural resources versus the steps taken or benefits prevented from the human efforts to the environment. Hence, human uses the natural resources and that is why is accountable for the sustainable development of the environment.
The natural greenhouse effect (helped by carbon dioxide) keeps the earth warm. This is not harmful.The enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect (from too much carbon dioxide) is causing global warming. This is harmful as it is causing climate change, meaning stronger storms, droughts and flooding.
The expansion of urban areas leading to deforestation and habitat destruction for wildlife is a significant effect of modernization on the surrounding natural environment. This process often results in the loss of biodiversity and disruption of ecosystems.
