1.	What are some of the disasters (natural/man-made and industrial) your locality has witnessed in the last ten years? What were the impact of these disasters on man and nature?
Answer» My locality has witnessed two major disasters. Bothe of them are man-made. One is water pollution. The local farmers, in their eagerness to get bumper harvests, used a lot of chemical fertilizers and later insecticides on a large scale. Total result is that the water in the area is polluted. The fish in the stream and ponds nearby have died. Another disaster is the mindless cutting down of trees and building concrete jungles everywhere. With high- rise buildings around you, you feel choked. There is no place for the children to run about and play. Every available piece of land is used for various types of construction. In the summer season the place becomes very hot. All the birds that nestled on the trees around have left the place, which looks barren.
