Natural disasters are caused by three main types of events: movements of the earth like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions; weather events such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and drought; and floods, mudslides, and landslides. Floods can occur due to blocked drainage, decreased river capacity from sediment, diminished water absorption from deforestation, and melting ice caps from global warming. Mudslides and landslides are typically triggered by heavy rain, earthquakes, deforestation on slopes, and sometimes develop after other natural disasters that saturate steep slopes with water.

*movement of earth earthquake, volcanic eruptions and tsunami *weather related hurricane, tornadoes and extreme weather (drought ) *floods, mudslide, landslide Floods *blockage of drainage or sewage system *effluent that shallow the riverbed decrease of water capacity *deforestation in mountain area diminishing the ability to seize waters *global warming that caused the solid ice in north and south pole to liquify Mudslide, Landslide *landslide are caused by heavy downpour or earthquake *it is also caused by artificial factors , such as unrestricted deforestation in slope areas *mudslides develop when water rapidly accumulates in the ground and usually starts on steep slopes that can as well be triggered by other natural disaster.
