1250 words on difference between technological and man-made disaster.
write a clear and descriptive narrative that:
- Distinguishes between a ‘technological’ and a ‘man-made’ disaster and that examines the subtleties of both. There are clear differences between natural and technological disasters, but how do technological and man-made disasters differ, if at all? If one perhaps more dependent on happenstance and or error – is the other perhaps more deliberate and causal by man himself?
- Is there really a difference?
- Does the difference matter?
- Extending in this line of thought, do you believe that our first-responder community is as prepared for the eventuality of a ‘technological’ hazard in general, as they may be for the occurrence e of a ‘natural’ hazard?
- Are they as prepared for the potential eventuality of a ‘man-made’ hazard in specific, as they may be for ‘natural’ and ‘technological’ hazards?
- Finally, Examine the potential for a ‘man-made’ bio-terror attack. Do you believe we are prepared? Why or why not.
- Are there mitigating and exacerbating conditions that would impact a nefarious bio-pathogenic release?
- Are there protective action recommendations that might be enacted in response to a bio-terror attack? What are they? Which would you specifically recommend? Why?
Research and investigation beyond those materials indicated in the course-ware will be required.
- Your assignment must be properly formatted and cited using APA, 6th Edition format.
- Your assignment must be a minimum of 1,250 words, not counting cover page and reference page material. Your writing can be longer, but it cannot be under the minimum indicated word-count for credit.
- Do not simply list questions and respond – your work is intended to be a complete, integrative narrative that embodies an introduction a body within which you respond to the targeted questions and a summary and conclusion.

Man-made and Technological Disaster.
There are different types of disasters, for instance, man-made, natural, and technological disasters. The various types of disasters have different causal agents. For example, technological and man-made disasters are as a result of man. While natural disaster is caused by ‘Acts of God’. There are negative as well as positive effects of the disaster on human activities such as death. The paper will focus on the differences between man-made and technological disasters. It will also review how best to mitigate man-made disaster as well as technological disasters, thereby giving a recommendation of how best to overcome the disasters.
