Science Holiday Homework-Natural Disasters
The document summarizes three natural disasters: the 2018 Kerala floods in India, the 2019-2020 Australian bushfires, and the 2020 Taal Volcano eruption in the Philippines. The Kerala floods were caused by heavy rainfall and resulted in over 480 deaths. The Australian bushfires started in late 2019 and burned over 18 million hectares, killing 34 people directly and over 400 from smoke inhalation. The Taal Volcano erupted in January 2020 in the Philippines, forcing over 200,000 people to evacuate and raising health concerns from volcanic ash.
