this is an understandable policy, hello, july will be remembered by belarusians not only as a time of warmth, but also of bad weather and violent elements, fortunately we did not overcome nastya together, this does not happen in all countries. society

reacts differently to natural disasters instead of mutual assistance, sometimes tries to profit from natural disasters, typhoons, earthquakes, fires, floods. let's remember for ourselves. destructive of them.

history has recorded a huge number of natural disasters over the centuries and a typhoon in india in 1881, which killed 300,000 people, a flood in china in 1887 killed up to 2 million people, by the way, the celestial sad record holder, of the ten deadliest disasters, half were ours asian allies. god's punishment or the river of sorrow, as they call the huanghe. it has always been the center of chinese

civilization, but extremely stubborn. the flood of 1887 was precisely the work of this river, 900 thousand died, but in 1931 everything worked out. the perfect storm in china was caused by several factors at once. from 1928 to 1930 , a severe drought raged in the country, after a severe winter, like that... a lot of ice and snow accumulated at the sources of the rivers. and finally, nine cyclones at once in 1931. the fate of central china was sealed. all three great ones overflowed their banks rivers of china. yangtze, yellow river and huai. on the night of august 21, 1931, the water level in lake gauyu, in the northern province of jiangsu, was already extremely high due to rain and strong winds, and rose even higher. and the dams could not withstand the shock of the waves. a stream of water with a terrifying roar swept through the streets of the sleeping

city of gaoyu. more than 10 thousand people died there that day, most of them dying in their sleep. the yandza river rose so high that all the surrounding valleys were flooded. by early august, the water had displaced an incredible 500 thousand people, leave their homes to wander in search of shelter and food. 16 of china's 23 provinces were flooded, as was the capital. then, by the way, it was not beijing, but the city of nanjing. in some places, the water level rose by 16 m. stoichia destroyed crops of rice, wheat and farms. in just a couple of days, 150 thousand people died, and millions more died from hunger and disease. food shortages became so critical that many people resorted to cannibalism. the flood led to an outbreak of malaria that killed another 300,000 people. typhoid, cholera and disinterry. a very important point is that since there was a civil

war in the country and there was anarchy, the commandant’s government provided very little assistance to the victims. yes, some dams were repaired, several small dams and dams were built, but this is essentially the entire border, there was assistance from international organizations, in particular the red cross. there were volunteers from other countries who helped the victims. the most destructive hurricane in us history, this is how scientists baptized katrina. storm literally destroyed to the ground a major cultural center of the country. new orleans. because of katrina , new orleans literally became a hostage, people

were locked in their own homes, unable to get out, the aid system showed its ineffectiveness, help never reached some families, 800 thousand homes were destroyed, the cost of rebuilding the city is estimated at $160 billion . just imagine, 80% of the city went under water, how the residents of new orleans behaved, helped restore or pump it out. no, let's get to it looting began, here is the material of that time. in new orlyan, more than half of the residents who left their homes due to hurricane katrina, looters are rampaging. so in the french quarter, the historical part of new orleans, many grocery stores were looted. in downtown canal street, looters broke the iron bars on the windows of expensive boutiques and jewelry stores. full police work in the city is impossible because the streets are flooded. there is no landline or mobile telephone service in the city. the situation led

in addition to the fact that the police even opened fire on the criminal, shootouts became a satellite of new orleans in those years. by the way, the city is being restored to this day. activists criticize washington, saying that federal authorities do not care about residents who have lost literally everything. but in 2021, the discourse about the aftermath of katrina took an unexpected turn. it must be recognized that police officers lie and that... using them as the sole source of information in stories is problematic, especially for communities of color. today society is wondering whether the police, under the guise of mordors, were killing innocent people, but of the wrong skin color. without these questions, reporters risk reporting stories that support police actions that may be unlawful. it is very important to talk about past disasters, but not so much as

thinking about it, we must think about ourselves, then our neighbors, and act accordingly . on december 27, 2004, a powerful tsunami hit the indian ocean coast, killing more than 200,000 people from madagascar to thai phuket died literally within a day. the tsunami was caused by an undersea earthquake of magnitude 9.1 near indonesia.

a few hours later, a powerful wave covered 14 countries, even reaching the coast of africa. only in the resorts... of thailand, the number of victims exceeded 800 people, it is noteworthy that 90% of the dead were tourists. the waves rose up to 40 m in height; in indonesia alone , 140,000 houses, 120 km of roads and two dozen bridges were destroyed. yes, in general, indonesia is a separate issue - it is the most seismically active region on the planet. daily in indonesia a dozen serious earthquakes are recorded, and two or three of them in the case of an appropriate location. epicenter could lead to a significant number of casualties. the country of 3.00 islands is part of the so -called pacific ring of fire, a powerful tectonic fault. the plate that forms the floor of the indian ocean, according to scientists, is squeezed under the asian plate here, at about the same speed as a human fingernail grows.

an earthquake set a sad record in sri lanka, where the largest tsunami occurred there. railway accident in history, died. people, as analysts noted, the region’s recovery from tremors was completed only by 2020. and this is a very recent case; the fires in australia four years ago are striking in their scale of tragedy. the silence is stunning, you can’t hear the singing of birds or the rustling of leaves under your feet, only silence. these are the words of the professor. mike clark, a lecturer in zoology at latrobe university of melbourne, australia, could be counted among the forests devastated by the disaster. outside without a doubt, this is the most destructive disaster in australian history, says the scientist. according to him, the total area of ​​18 million hectares affected by the fire is beyond belief; it is

larger than holland, denmark and switzerland combined. scientists note that it could take decades for australia's flora and fauna to recover; the situation is still so critical that society is demanding that the government introduce a moratorium on logging. such a move will naturally make timber more expensive on the continent gold. a situation in which economic profit is on one side of the scale, which is also quite understandable. an understandable factor, because economic collapse, an economic catastrophe associated with the lack of exports and the timber industry there, can also lead to dire consequences, on the one hand, for the citizens of this state, on the other hand, on the other side of the scale lies the need to restore the country’s ecological system,

this is a matter of certainly a very difficult choice, the then prime minister of australia. scott morison named the main reason for the fire during the drought, which lasted in the country for 3 years, and that same thing - global warming. some scientists also argue that the main cause of fires in australia was global warming, which was caused by industrial carbon emissions into the atmosphere, raising the air temperature on the surface of the earth. let us note that back in 2018, at a un conference, it was reported that australia was not fulfilling its obligations. reducing carbon emissions as part of the paris climate agreement. so we went to the belarusian event, such bad weather took many by surprise. after all

, our climate is usually calm, we are not very used to hurricanes and tornadoes, so july 2024 tested the resilience of belarusians. squally winds, heavy downpours, hundreds of settlements without electricity and water, littered roads, de-energized farms, fallen forests, almost all areas were affected. when was a state of emergency declared in belarusian regions because of the weather? according to the ministry of emergency situations , seven people died during the disaster. another 13 were injured. the most difficult situation has developed in the mozal, rechesky and gomel districts of the southern region. backup power sources were used to supply power to socially significant facilities.

the methods of work do not produce results, the president personally began to lead the liquidation of the consequences. he mobilized all the resources of the state and quickly built a system of actions of various service departments, both republican and local levels. twice a day, morning and evening, the president received a detailed summary of the measures taken. the head of the presidential administration, dmitry krutoy, went to the gomel region to analyze the situation and make appropriate decisions. several thousand specialists and almost three hundred pieces of equipment were involved; diesel generator sets were deployed to restore power supply. the restoration of damaged facilities, both on

and off camera, was under personal control of the president, with contacts with each region of the country. in this case, we are restoring power lines. if we see that this junk is being destroyed there, then i entrusted it all to him demolish and install new lines. these are basically these... low-medium voltage lines, so governors, take control of this, while the minister and his specialists work with you, demand that all power lines be restored, and the frail, thin lines must be demolished and replaced , the minister knows this, viktor mikhailovich reported to me, the state security committee carried out monitoring, there are cases when they are offended by the energy sector, we...

centuries: the great lisbon earthquake, also called the killer of the empire. in those years portugal owned many colonies, had the largest fleet and the status of a world power. everything

changed on november 1, 1755. at 9:40 am there were three powerful tremors. the most powerful of the three was the second shock. the ground vibrations from it lasted 3 minutes. it destroyed the building and created giant cracks in the center of lisbon. in a matter of minutes, it claimed the lives of more than 100 thousand residents of the capital; three tremors of the earthquake turned a prosperous sun-drenched city into a real hell on earth. due to the huge amount of dust, the capital of portugal plunged into darkness, all its former happy life was under rubble. after the earthquake, the surviving residents of lisbon ran to the coast to escape, where they were met by a twenty-meter tsunami wave. lisbon was destroyed on 85. royal archives, securities, and documents disappeared under water; the entire surviving part of the treasury had to be spent on restoring the capital. a considerable part of the famous

portuguese fleet also suffered. as a result , the country's colonial ambitions were buried like the portuguese wealth. in both looters and clergy appeared in lisbon at the same time. the earthquake occurred during the catholic day of all saints, and many saw this as a sign from god, saying that portugal had turned away from god. the entire system, the entire managerial elite of portugal gathered for the all saints day holiday. and in fact , within... a few minutes there was the most terrible second shock, in fact, most of it either died or was maimed, and a very large part simply fell into a state of such inhibition, this is also very it is important to note, because even the king himself, who was not directly affected by the disaster, yes, but after that he began to be afraid to live

on... he is indoors for most of the rest of his life, he lived in richly decorated, but tents, this is a very important point, so many people were affected by this uh, this disaster. another result of the portuguese tragedy is the emergence of such a science as seismology: centuries later, earthquakes and other natural disasters are still occurring and will continue to occur; serious flooding can occur, for example. united arab emirates. there are several reasons for this, and it is a pity that even against the backdrop of serious climate change, the state of flora and fauna is still of little concern to the largest corporation and the bigwigs of the world. happily.
