Summary
This lesson plan covers disaster readiness and risk reduction. It discusses various types of hazards, including natural and man-made disasters, and the impacts and classification of these. The Philippines is highlighted as a region at risk due to natural disasters, such as typhoons and earthquakes, and the importance of preparedness and coping mechanisms is emphasized.

DISASTER READINESS AND RISK REDUCTION SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Subject Description This course focuses on the application of scientific knowledge and the solution of practical problems in a physical environment. It is designed to bridge the gap between theoretical science and daily living. SHS-STEM Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction Grade Components Written Works 25% Performance Tasks 50% Quarterly Assessment 25% 100% We accept the grades we think we deserve. SHS-STEM Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction Why is DRRR an important course? SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Recall a disastrous event in the Philippines and share your experience/s during these times. SHS-STEM Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction Why is Philippines considered as one of the most disastrous countries in the world? Having more than 20 tropical cyclones in a year, earthquakes everyday, and more than 20 active volcanoes found all over the country. SHS-STEM Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, AND SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Differentiate disaster from hazards. Disaster Hazard SHS-STEM Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction Hazard A DANGEROUS phenomenon, substance, human activity or condition that MAY CAUSE loss of life, injury or other health impacts, property damage, loss of livelihoods and services, social and economic disruption, or environmental damage. SHS-STEM Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction Group Activity Classify the phenomena in a table. You can classify them in any way you want but you have to describe the basis of your classification. Choose a volunteer to share with the class the classification that you made. A. Ground shaking B. Tornado C. Landslide D.Flood E. Indoor fire F. Lava flow G. Industrial pollution H. Typhoon I. Forest fire J. Liquefaction K. Storm surge L. Tsunami M.Extreme rainfall SHS-STEM Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction Classification of Hazards: A. Natural Hazards – a natural phenomenon is caused by natural forces SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, It can be: A. Rapid onset B. earthquakes, typhoon, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, fires, tornado, flash floods Progressive/slow onset droughts that lead to famine, epidemics, insect infestations SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Geological hazard (ge- earth) Includes internal earth processes such as earthquakes, volcanic activity and emissions, related geophysical processes mass movements, landslides, rockslides, surface collapses, and debris or mudflows. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS Hydrometeorological hazard (“hydor” - water) (“meteoros” - sky) includes tropical cyclones (also known as typhoons and hurricanes), thunderstorms, hailstorms, tornados, blizzards, heavy snowfall, avalanches, coastal storm surges, floods including flash floods, drought, heatwaves and cold spells. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Tsunamis are difficult to categorize; although they are triggered by undersea earthquakes and other geological events, they are essentially an oceanic process that is manifested as a coastal water- related hazard. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Biological hazard (bios- life) disease producing agents (pathogens) that can be transmitted to individuals through various routes of exposure (modes of transmission) include outbreaks of epidemic diseases, plant or animal contagion, insect or other animal plagues and infestations. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Biological hazard Bubonic Plague The bubonic plague came to the country in 1899, 1905, and as late as 1912. Is is caused by the bacteria Yersinia pestis, a zoonotic bacteria usually found in small mammals and their fleas It was spread by rats and the fleas on them. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Biological hazard Cholera is an acute diarrheal illness caused by infection of the intestine with Vibrio cholerae bacteria. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS Biological hazard Flu The 1918 flu pandemic killed 50 million people worldwide and it is estimated that 500 million people were infected. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS Classification of Hazard: B. Man-made - are those in which major direct causes are identifiable intentional or non-intentional human actions. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Subdivided into three categories: 1. Technological/industrial disasters - Unregulated industrialization and inadequate safety standards increase the risk for industrial disasters. EXAMPLE: leaks of hazardous materials; accidental explosions; bridge or road collapses, or vehicle collisions; Power cuts SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Fire in slippers factory 72 people who died, 69 were burned beyond recognition Oil spill in Guimaras in 2006 SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Subdivided into three categories: 2. Terrorism/Violence - the threat of terrorism has also increased due to the spread of technologies involving nuclear, biological, and chemical agents used to develop weapons of mass destruction. EXAMPLE : bombs or explosions; release of chemical materials; release of biological agents; release of radioactive agents; multiple or massive shootings; mutinies SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Cotabato bombing SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 3. Complex humanitarian emergencies - the term complex emergency is usually used to describe the humanitarian emergency resulting from an international or civil war. EXAMPLE: conflicts or wars and Genocide the deliberate killing of a large group of people, especially those of a particular ethnic group or nation war on drugs SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, When does a hazard become a disaster? What is the difference between a hazard and a disaster? A naturally occurring process or event “The realisation of hazard, although which has the potential to cause loss of there is no universally agreed definition life or property. of the scale on which loss has to occur Without people it is just a natural event. in order to qualify as a disaster”(Smith 1996) HAZARD DISASTER Dregg’s model Disaster A serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society involving widespread human, material, economic, or environmental losses and impacts which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources (FAO, 2008) SHS-STEM Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Arrange the given jumbled letters to identify the correct terminology. The definition will help you to derive the correct answer. 1. A sudden calamitous event, bringing great damage, loss, destruction, and devastation. RTAIESSD SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 2. A path along the Pacific Ocean characterized by active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes. GRNI FO IEFR SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 3. An event causing great and often sudden damage or distress. TALAYMIC SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 4. Shaking of earth caused by waves moving on and below the earth's surface. AQRHTEKEAU SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 5. When lava and gas are discharged from a volcanic vent. ICNLOVAC IPREOUTN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 6. Largest and deepest of Earth's oceanic divisions. CFCPIAI NEAOC SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 7. Type of tropical cyclone, or severe tropical storm. OOYNHPT SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 8. A natural event such as a flood, earthquake, or hurricane that causes great damage or loss of life LTARUNA HZADARS SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, 9. A sudden or great misfortune or failure. ETUTODSRCIN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, are those in which major direct causes are identifiable intentional or non-intentional human actions. NMA EDMA RESTSAID SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING, Identifying Impacts of Hazards A: Family inside the house near the river (flood) B: Farmers in a rice field (earthquake) C: Friends in a beach resort (tornado) D: Fishermen out on the sea (tsunami) E: Passengers in a jeep along a road with moderate traffic (typhoon) SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,ENGINEERING,
