The environment plays a crucial role in sustaining life, providing essential resources such as air, water, and food. However, natural and human-induced disasters like floods, earthquakes, droughts, and industrial accidents threaten the balance of ecosystems and human societies. This makes Disaster Risk Management (DRM) essential in preserving both environmental health and human well-being. DRM refers to the systematic process of using administrative decisions, organization, operational skills, and capacities to implement policies, strategies, and coping capacities to lessen the impacts of natural hazards and environmental degradation. A sustainable approach to DRM integrates environmental management, recognizing that healthy ecosystems reduce disaster risks. For example, forests can prevent landslides, wetlands can absorb floodwaters, and coral reefs can protect coastal areas from storm surges. Environmental degradation, such as deforestation, soil erosion, and pollution, can significantly increase disaster vulnerability. Therefore, incorporating environmental considerations into DRM ensures more effective and long-lasting solutions. Practices like ecosystem-based adaptation, reforestation, and sustainable land management not only minimize disaster risks but also enhance biodiversity and climate resilience. In conclusion, a strong link exists between environment and DRM. Protecting the environment is not just a conservation goal but a critical strategy for reducing disaster risks and ensuring sustainable development.
