Answer:
Honk Kong
Explanation:
On July 1 1997 the United Kingdom officially returned Hong Kong and the area surrounding it to its traditional owner, China. Hong Kong has been part of China for a very long time, but during the imperialism, the European imperialist, including the British Empire, came in East Asia and started to take control over strategically important locations, and Hong Kong was one of those places. The British were not that interested about occupying the interior of China, but instead they were focused on the good ports, as they were the ones that generated the most profit. Hong Kong was one of those ports, but unlike the other ports that China got back into its territory, Hong Kong remained to be under the governing of the UK. With lot of tensions between the two sides, as well as the increasing international pressure, the UK finally decided to return Hong Kong and the surrounding area back to China in 1997.
Answer:
im very confused hold on lemme figure this out really quick
Explanation:
Answer:
By correct territorial planning including natural hazards prevention and international accords regarding mitigation and adaptation to climate change.
Explanation:
Natural hazards cant be controlled, we cannot know for sure when an earthquake will occur and an eruption cannot be stopped, but there are still things societies can do to prepare and increase the resilience towards this kind of riks.
Trough territorial planning (if done correctly) societies can prepare well, for example, a city located at a high-risk zone of volcano eruption can set an alarm system to alert citizens to when it would be safe to leave the area. A seismic center can be installed to study the tectonic activity and establish high-risk zones.
Regarding climate change, there needs to be an integration of the different countries to the international accords toward climate change so that natural hazards can be mitigated no only locally but globally.
If done correctly estates can receive the impact of a natural hazard and still function correctly. Making high amounts of preparations and funding natural risk mitigation is justified if we look back at past catastrophes such as Katrina Hurricane or Haiti Earthquake and quantify the damage done.
