  Storm becomes category 3 hurricane
  Katrina classifies as a category 3 hurricane and doubles in size. President George W Bush declares a state of emergency in parts of Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi. A hurricane-hunter aircraft flies into Katrina to measure wind speed, barometric pressure, ocean surface temperature and other data. The circulation covers the entire Gulf of Mexico, according to Meteorologist Chris Landsea, who is aboard the flight into Katrina.

  Major flooding in New Orleans
  Katrina makes landfall, with its strongest winds weakening slightly. New Orleans floods, as a section of the 17th Street Canal levee fails. The city loses clean water and electricity, and communication is cut off. More than 1,500 people die in Louisiana, including about 30 residents of St Ritas Nursing Home, and more than 200 die in Mississippi. At the time, New Orleans’s levee system is not built to withstand worst case scenarios. 'We were just caught by a storm whose intensity exceeded the protection that we had in place,' Lt Gen Carl Strock, chief of engineers of the US Army Corps of Engineers, later tells National Geographic.

  THE EXPLOSION IN CHERNOBYL
  

• 15 слайд

  It is considered to be the worst nuclear plant disaster in history. Due to this explosion there was a highly radioactive fallout into the atmosphere which covered thousands of square kilometers of land.  The most contaminated zones included Ukraine, Russia and Belarus and affected directly about 2 600 000 inhabitants.

  Some of them died in the first ten years, some were evacuated out of the place. After the accident in Chernobyl, soil and forest areas were polluted with radioactive elements. Besides that, the health of the population was seriously damaged which resulted in increase of infantile mortality, cancer or thyroid and in increase of the amount of children born with leukemia, malformations, tumors and other affections.

  KATMANDU, Nepal (AP) — An avalanche and blizzard in Nepal's mountainous north have killed 12 people, including foreign trekkers, officials said Wednesday as weather conditions improved.
  An avalanche on Wednesday buried four Canadians and one Indian trekker in Phu, said Devendra Lamichane, chief administrator of Manang district. The snow buried the trekkers' bodies and digging them out would take days, he said.
  Three villagers were killed Monday in the same district, about 160 kilometers (100 miles) northwest of the capital, Katmandu, and their bodies were recovered on Wednesday.

  Природные катастрофы
  Такие природные катастрофы, как наводнение, пожар, торнадо, землетрясение, цунами все чаще встречаются на нашей планете. Вкратце, природная катастрофа – это результат стихийного бедствия, которое оказывает негативное влияние на человека. Эти геологические процессы могут привести к серьезным последствиям, например, смерти, материальному ущербу, экономическим проблемам. Некоторые районы в большей степени подвержены стихийным бедствиям. Например, почти вся береговая линия Новой Зеландии подвержена цунами, в то время как Дальний Восток подвержен наводнениям. Зная о возможных опасностях, люди должны быть готовы защитить себя, свои семьи и общины. Два важных шага, которые нужно предпринять, это составить чрезвычайный план и собрать набор первой помощи. Тем не менее, все известные стихийные бедствия носят уникальный характер, поэтому их следует рассматривать по отдельности. К некоторым распространенным стихийным бедствиям относятся землетрясение, наводнение, засуха, жара, ураганы, извержения вулкана, град, торнадо, цунами, оползни, пожары, снежная буря. Я хотел бы рассказать вам немного подробнее о наводнениях, ураганах и землетрясениях. Наводнение – это затопление территории земли водой. В тяжелых случаях оно приводит к гибели людей и животных. Зачастую пропадает урожай, что приводит к голоду. Ураган – тяжелый тропический циклон или шторм, который часто встречается в определенных частях Атлантического и Тихого океанов. Его разрушительная сила может приводить к изменениям в погоде и экономике. Также, он может привести к проливным дождям, грозам, наводнению или даже к торнадо. Землетрясение является результатом внезапного столкновения тектонических плит Земли. Такое столкновение приводит к массовым колебаниям земли, иногда со смертельным исходом. Однако, зная конкретные угрозы и меры, которые нужно предпринять, можно спасти жизнь многим людям.
