GEOHAZARDS
• are geological phenomena that pose danger to people’s lives, properties, infrastructure and communities. These include landslides, flooding and land subsidence. However, in some cases, geohazards can also be induced by human activities.
• Geohazards cannot be totally prevented but their impact on people and the environment
may be lessened or mitigated. (www.denr.gov.ph)

Causes of Hazards
• Natural Hazards• Man-made Hazards• Deadly force or retribution

Risk Assessment
Scientific process of estimating the harm or danger a particular hazard can have on human health or environment
Identify it!Probability?
Consequence?
![Page 15: Hazard reportgs](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062313/55840a1fd8b42af00a8b53da/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Development of Plans
• How to assess unknown hazards
• What do you already know about these drums?
![Page 16: Hazard reportgs](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062313/55840a1fd8b42af00a8b53da/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Risk Management
Making decisions to reduce the risk of a potential hazard.
Analyze: Is it worth it?
How much reduction?
