N T U R L A A D I S RS T S E A Types of Natural Disasters Most people think that there are only 3 different types of natural disasters: tornadoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes.

You will be required to learn about 8 out of 13 of these disasters. They are tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, landslides, fires, and droughts. You will discover what makes each of these disasters occur and what type of destruction they leave. Click Here to Continue
