DISASTER MANAGEMENT
Disaster
management is the discipline of dealing with and avoiding both natural disaster and man-made
disaster. Natural disaster usually caused by natural phenomena meanwhile
man-made disaster usually caused by man activities. Beside of that disaster
management has cycle with purpose to avoid a disaster, reduce its impact or
recover from its losses.
Natural
disasters consist earthquakes, tsunamis, cyclones, floods, landslides and drought.
The earthquakes is the result of a sudden release of energy in the earth’s
crust that creates seismic waves. Beside of that, earthquakes occur in seabed
can cause tsunamis. The mean of tsunamis is long-wave length and long-period
sea waves produced by the sudden or abrupt movement of large volumes of water.
As
we know, the cyclones same with tornado which it has spiraling winds that
rotate with very fast. While floods occur when the water of rivers, lakes or
streams over flow their banks and pour onto the surrounding land. The one of cause
floods is trash, because of that to overcome it, we must take care our environment
with throw trash in garbage. The landslides usually occurs in steep slope. The
drought like dry season but it occur in long time.
Disaster
management cycle is activities to overcome and prepare ourself to confront
disaster. Disaster management may use in prevention disaster( Natural disaster
and Man-made disaster). There are four phases of disaster management cycle ,
such as Preparedness, Response, Recovery and Mitigation. Preparedness is
activities prior to a disaster, examples warning systems and emergency
exercises. Response is activities during a disaster, examples public warning
systems and emergency operations. Recovery is acrivities following a disaster,
examples temporary housing, long-term medical care and counseling. Mitigation
is activities that reduce the effect of disaster, examples building codes,
zoning and vulnerability.
As
note. These are some of the general measures to be kept in mind during
disaster, such as shout for help or people around might come for help, keep all
emergency and important number with you and most important always keep first-aid kit in the
house,public/private vehicle and work place.
