Question
Explain that why is it said like that?
Effective disaster management makes us well prepared for future.
Solution
We know that disasters are sudden and unplanned and thus can't be avoided in most cases. But if effective disaster management is employed and exercised, then we would certainly achieve the abilities to face the adverse effects of disasters. Hence, through effective disaster management, we actually make ourselves prepared for future. Through effective disaster management,
- we can supply essential commodities to the people after or before disaster
- we can arrange rescue for the affected
- we can rehabilitate and rebuild the affected area in short span of time
- we can minimise losses of life and property
- we can build tools to assess the damaged caused
