There are many correct answers to this question, for there are many reasons why natural disasters occur. One reason is the way the Earth moves. There is no way to control how Earth moves. It is vital for Earth to move to ensure life on Earth can be sustained. However, the cost of this movement is that Earth may react violently to the movements taking place.

Other causes of natural disasters are air pressure and ocean currents. Along with the air pressure and ocean currents, the changes in the sea and ocean levels can cause natural disasters. Drought is another cause of them.

There are different reasons why natural disasters may take place. There are some that may happen because of the natural movement of the earth. For example, there are times when the earth has to move. This can cause earthquakes when the earth is trying to adjust.

There are also times when the movement of the earth can make it more common for hurricanes and typhoons to strike. There are also some natural disasters that are heightened by the weather. For example, it can be common for people who are living near the sea to experience more typhoons because of the amount of water that may condense to the sky.

Natural disasters are caused by unusual activity within the earth and other scientific reasons. Some of these include air pressure, ocean currents, soil erosion, seismic activity, and tectonic movements. The root causes of the majority of natural disasters that appear on earth can be connected to the imbalance created in our environment. This irregularity may either be in the form of air pollution, water pollution, and noise pollution, and a combination of two or all of the above equals a natural disaster.

Natural disasters like earthquakes and floods had occurred in the years before when humans were far away from development. Different types of natural disasters have different causes. The seismic activity produced by earthquakes has been the root cause of volcanoes erupting and typhoons. The activity of the moon controls how high the ocean waves crest, while the changing currents result in fluctuation of water temperature. These changes may lead to a possible food shortage and the killing of aquatic life.

There are different possible reasons why natural disasters may occur. The first reason is the movement of the earth may cause natural disasters, and these movements cannot be controlled. The earth has to move so that it will continue to sustain life, but in the process, it may react violently. Air pressure and ocean currents are also other causes of natural disasters.

As we all know, there are some changes that are occurring with the sea and ocean levels of the earth. Drought will also have a big impact on the earth, especially if there are some places that will start to become barren and will not have the ability to bear fruit anymore.
