Abstract

Natural disasters are events that occur as a result of environmental risk. Natural disasters may have significant consequences for millions of people and families affected once a year. Natural catastrophes are destructive, affecting a great number of people each year. This abstract explored the effects of such disasters, including humanitarian, facility, wellness, economic, social, and environmental aspects. Furthermore, the amplification of natural disasters by climate change adds another degree of complication. To address these problems, a comprehensive, coordinated strategy including governments, non-governmental organizations, and the international community is required, with a focus on preparedness, early warning systems, and sustainable development practices for effective mitigation and response. To predict natural disasters, several AI and machine learning technologies were created. In this chapter, the authors will discuss the complications of natural disasters and how to predict them using the latest technology.
