Mitigation of Dangers from Natural and Anthropogenic Hazards : Prediction, Prevention, and Preparedness Paperback / softback
by Frederic R. Siegel
Part of the SpringerBriefs in Environmental Science series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book advances a three-step program for mitigation of natural and anthropogenic hazards, addressing mitigation economics and funding possibilities to meet the needs of at risk countries that lack the financial resources to invest in disaster reduction programs.
Within the context of mitigation, this book covers prediction-prevention-preparedness for global warming/climate change as existing and progressive processes that create or abet slow developing or rapidly occurring hazards that endanger society such as sea level rise, extreme weather events, threats to food/water security, and the spread of infectious diseases.
