A prime reason for the absence of proactive approaches in disaster/hazard management is the uncertainty or ambiguity present in the links between the environment and the hazards. This is the first book to focus on explicit linkages between the changing environment and disasters and suggests better approaches towards disaster management. A ready-reference for field practitioners it combines academic research and field practices and covers areas such as: elements of environmental entry (water-related disasters, desertification and land degradation, typhoon risk management, catastrophic flood and forest management, and coastal issues); impacts of environment and disaster (livelihoods impacts, human health: post-disaster waste management); and strategies, planning and the way forward (climate change adaptation as a planning tool, urban planning and land use planning, mangrove management as a coastal planning tool, and environment disaster education and risk communication). 410 0$aCommunity, environment and disaster risk management ;$vv. 9. 606 $aNature$xEnvironmental Conservation & Protection$2bisacsh 606 $aNature$xNatural Disasters$2bisacsh 606 $aNature$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aThe environment$2bicssc 606 $aNatural disasters$2bicssc 606 $aEnvironmental disasters$xForecasting 606 $aEnvironmental disasters$xPrevention 606 $aEmergency management 615 7$aNature$xEnvironmental Conservation & Protection. 615 7$aNature$xNatural Disasters. 615 7$aNature$xGeneral. 615 7$aThe environment. 615 7$aNatural disasters. 615 0$aEnvironmental disasters$xForecasting. 615 0$aEnvironmental disasters$xPrevention. 615 0$aEmergency management. 676 $a363.347 701 $aShaw$b Rajib$01474599 701 $aTran$b Phong$01651195 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811432903321 996 $aEnvironment disaster linkages$94001007 997 $aUNINA
