As we have just embarked upon a new century and millennium, natural hazard prevention is set to play a prominent role in global efforts to reduce human suffering and damage to natural and built environments.

Disaster reduction is both possible and feasible if the sciences and technologies related to natural hazards are properly applied. The extent to which society puts this knowledge to effective use depends firstly upon the political will of its leaders at all levels. Coping with hazards - whether natural or attributable to human activity - is one of the
greatest challenges of the applications of science and technology in the 21st Century.

While we cannot prevent an earthquake or a hurricane from occurring, or a volcano from erupting, we can apply the scientific knowledge and technical know-how that we already have to increase the earthquake- and wind resistance of houses and bridges, to issue early warnings on volcanoes and cyclones, and organize proper community response to such warnings.

Over the last three decades, scientific knowledge of the intensity and distribution in time and space of natural hazards and the technological means of confronting them has expanded greatly. Let's take a look at how.

Thank you for watching.
