What continent has the most natural disasters per area per population?

It really depends on what natural disasters you mean. Like tornadoes are probably the most seen natural disaster in Tornado Alley (or whatever it's called) and hurricanes are probably the most seen natural disaster in Hawaii or the Caribbeans.


What do most natural disasters have in common?

Most natural disasters are caused by shifts in the Earth's crust or atmosphere, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, and wildfires. These events can result in widespread destruction and loss of life, as well as economic and environmental impacts. Emergency preparedness and response efforts are vital in minimizing the impact of these disasters.


How do you conclude a speech on natural disasters?

A natural disaster is a consequence when a natural hazard affects humans and/or the built environment. Human vulnerability, and lack of appropriate emergency management, leads to financial, environmental, or human impact. The resulting loss depends on the capacity of the population to support or resist the disaster: their resilience. This understanding is concentrated in the formulation: "disasters occur when hazards meet vulnerability". A natural hazard will hence never result in a natural disaster in areas without vulnerability. Various phenomena like earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions, floods and cyclones are all natural hazards that kill thousands of people and destroy billions of dollars of habitat and property each year. However, natural hazards can strike in unpopulated areas and never develop into disasters. However, the rapid growth of the world's population and its increased concentration often in hazardous environments has escalated both the frequency and severity of natural disasters. With the tropical climate and unstable land forms, coupled with deforestation, unplanned growth proliferation, non-engineered constructions which make the disaster-prone areas more vulnerable, tardy communication, poor or no budgetary allocation for disaster prevention, developing countries suffer more or less chronically by natural disasters. Asia tops the list of casualties due to natural disasters
