My attitude towards the nature disasters

As far as I am concerned, there are two kinds of natural disasters. One cannot be controlled, such as volcano eruptions and the earthquakes that have happened in Wenchuang and Yushu in China recent years. Another can be controlled or be reduced through us people’s endeavors, for instance the Dongting Lake rodents and the red tide.

We all know that such disasters bring losses in almost every aspect. But we cannot try to transform them into a better condition blindly other wise we will receiver almost nothing or things even better.

First, on the one hand we should set up rigorous systems of monitoring, dispatching, and rescuing. Once disasters happened, all the related departments should take actions in order to reduce the losses to a greatest extent. On the other hand, we are supposed to carry our science and technology to a brand new and high level. We still remember that in 2008, when the miserable earthquake happened in Wenchuang, it was just because of our numbness and that we do not have precise apparatus that we could not save people from the ruins at once. And this event gave us a fatal lesson.

Secondly, as mentioned above, there are also disasters that we can control. When we handle this kind of hazards, we need to pay our attention to another aspect that we should protect the environment before it gets worse. Just like the old proverb suggested: Prevention is the best cure. We discharge lots of carbon dioxide which causes the global warming. Then the global warming contributes to the typhoon, the thaw of the icebergs in Poles, and the rapid spreading of diseases. Many people do not believe in the movie 2012. Yes, the scenery may not happen in 2012 as it is imaginative. But we are not certain whether it will happen in the following years after 2012! We have to know that “We do not inherited the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.”

Us people always play an important. We are not the ruler of the world, but we can change the world in a positive way. Let us get a move on to deal with the disasters and to make a better world!

My attitude towards natural disasters OR My attitude towards the nature of disasters

As far as I am concerned, there are two kinds of natural disasters. One cannot be controlled, such as the volcanic eruptions and earthquakes in Wenchuang and Yushu in recent years. Another can be controlled or reduced through our people’s efforts, like those seen during the Dongting Lake rodents and the red tide.

We all know that such disasters bring losses in many aspects. But we cannot try to transform them into a better condition blindly. Otherwise we receive almost nothing and cannot make things better.

First, for disasters we cannot prevent, we should set up rigorous systems of monitoring, dispatching, and rescuing. Once disasters happen, all the related departments should take actions in order to reduce losses. We are supposed to carry our science and technology to a new and higher level. We still remember that in 2008, when the miserable earthquake struck Wenchuang, it was only because of our slow reaction and lack of a precise apparatus that we could not save people from the ruins immediately. This event taught us a fatal lesson.

Secondly, for disasters that we can control, we need to pay attention to protecting the environment before it gets worse. Just like the old proverb suggests, prevention is the best cure. Releasing lots of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere causes global warming. Then the global warming contributes to the formation of typhoons, the thaw of the icebergs in Poles, and the rapid spread of diseases. Many people do not believe in the movie 2012 or related theories about the end of the world. And yes, the events seen in 2012 are very exaggerated and imagination. But the deterioration of our environment is a reality. People should know that “we do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.” (Try expanding on this quote. A general rule in writing an essay is never starting or leaving a paragraph with a quote. Maybe try ending it with something like, We have a responsibility to protect our environment for future generations.)

The role people play is always important to success. We are not the rulers of the world, but we can change the world in a positive way. Let's get a move on to dealing with these disasters and help make a better world!

(Make sure that each paragraph has a strong thesis.)
