In no particular order...

  1. Thermonuclear activity on the center of the earth.
  2. Moving of earth's plate.
  3. Human exploration gone wrong.
  4. Plague.

same answer more explained.

natural disasters come from 2 main sources.

The sun, and the earths core.

The Earths core heat the earth and allows the tectonic plates to move, it is the colliding up these plates that cause earthquakes and tsunamis, and it is the heat and pressure applied to gaps in these plates that causes volcanic eruption.

BUT what we call disaster are really just signs that the earth is alive.

The sun, creates weather by heating up sections of the earth. It causes water to evaporate to create rain and creates wind the pressure systems. Heat from the sun creates high pressure and high pressure flows to low pressure and it is that flow that we call wind. Tornadoes and hurricanes (cyclones) are cause when two directions of wind flow next to each other causing a spiral, the strength of the wind and the amount of water in the air can cause anything from a small "willy willy" to a full blow cyclone the causes severe waves, wind and rain.

Of course this is a very simplified version of the answer, the full facts are far more complicated.

Is a meteor a natural disaster?

A meteor itself is not classified as a natural disaster; it is a space rock that enters Earth's atmosphere. However, if a meteor were to collide with Earth and cause significant damage, it could result in a natural disaster. The impact could lead to widespread destruction, fires, or even tsunamis, depending on the size and location of the impact. Thus, while a meteor is not inherently a natural disaster, it has the potential to trigger one.


Could volcanoes start a natural disaster?

Is dust storm a natural disaster?

A dust storm can be a natural disaster. It could also be just an annoyance. The midwestern dust storms of the 1930s were a natural disaster, but the root cause was human. Dust storms in the high plains, the Sahara, and many other places are simply natural events.


The size of what natural disaster is not necessarily an indication of its intensity?

The size of a natural disaster, such as an earthquake or hurricane, does not always reflect its intensity. For example, a smaller earthquake with high intensity can cause more damage than a larger earthquake with lower intensity. Therefore, it is important to consider factors beyond just the size when assessing the impact of a natural disaster.
