Abstract:The events of 9/11 and Katrina focused national attention on issues surrounding disaster prevention and response, but as is evident the world continues to be inundated with catastrophic disasters whether man-made through war and terrorism or natural phenomenon such as tidal waves, earthquakes, volcanoes, fires, floods, tornadoes and hurricanes to mention some of the most obvious. Nor are these events new in the relatively short history of human life on planet Earth; events such as Pompeii, the Black Plague, outbreaks of pandemics such as Smallpox ad the flu, the San Francisco earthquake or Hurricane Andrew, the devastation of southern Florida or the current loss of over 100,000 people in Myanmar.
