What are the effects of natural disasters on the environment?
Can you tell me about the effects of natural disasters on the environment?
Sure. Natural disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, droughts, and wildfires can have a significant impact on the environment. They can cause land, water, and air pollution, destroy habitats, and reduce biodiversity. The effects can be short-term, such as immediate destruction, or long-term, such as changes in climate patterns or soil and water quality.
