“The Alarming Rise of the Catastrophes”🌊🌪️

•🌋All about the Increase of the Natural Calamities:

One of the major notable meteorological related problems is the rapid incline of the occurrences of disturbingly more than one natural disasters.

Because of global warming, climate change, our carelessness & other causes, these disasters have increased fivefold, economic losses surged over US$202 million per day over the past 50 years, & human displacements have accelerated to unprecedented heights by a factor of 5, causing an average of one new displacement every 1.5 seconds over the last 10 years. The gradual decline of meteorological state of our planet ultimately results in –

·Strengthened winter storms, high-risk severe weather events, heat domes, desertification, acidification & increase of salinity in water bodies,

·More frequency of natural calamities like cyclones, tsunamis, hurricanes and tornadoes,

·Intensified earthquakes, floods, droughts, irregular rainfall, river & soil erosions and submerging of lands,

·Loss of habitat for humans & other living organisms, imbalance & destructions of ecology & biodiversity, etc.

•🌀Possible Solutions for Reducing the Natural Disasters:

·Urgent action to circumscribe global warming to 1.5°C to avoid the worst climate impacts,

·Comprehensive approach concentrating on reducing carbon dioxide, greenhouse/CFC and other harmful gases, restoring ecosystems, and utilizing advanced technological solutions,

·Afforestation, planned reforestation, prohibition of unplanned deforestation, mangrove & coastal protection,

·To strictly stop and severely punish cutting down hills and filling up the rivers & other water bodies,

·Proper implementation of reduce-reuse-recycle method, regenerative agriculture and ecosystem restoration, transition from non-renewable to renewable energy, electrifying transport and industry, introducing AI in forecasting and geoengineering research,

·Arrangements of methane emission control, cloud seeding, fog dispersal, hail suppression, urban greening & amended and updated lawful enforcements regarding the conservation and reinstatement of our environment by the legal authorities,

·Proper uses of AI & social media for mass awareness; smart, strategic, organized and better ways for garbage disposal, constructions of houses, buildings, industries & other infrastructures,

·More strengthened community preparedness & resilience, nature based solutions, enhanced early warning systems for urgent evacuations and emergency preemptive actions; ultimately promoting less vulnerability, more sustainability and resulting in decline of the natural catastrophes.
