Hurricane Katrina was a terrible natural disaster that destroyed many homes, towns and even left others fatally injured. An effective research question would be “How many people were effected?” “How did. residents overcome this tragedy?” There really is no way to prevent a natural disaster, but there are ways to be prepared such as reviewing the forecast, knowing if you need to evacuate, having food and water incase stores are closed, getting sandbags for flooding, etc. Local government did not protect, but during Katrina MRE’s (Meals Ready to Eat” were dropped in numerous areas to attend to the survivors. Hurricane Katrina effected the economy because many stores and local businesses were wiped away if not flooded. This meant that consumers could not purchase from company’s because they simply were not able to. Causes of severe weather such as hurricanes usually occur when the air is warm and the water is cold causing a collision.
I was on the coast of MS when Katrina occurred and I wanted to help inform based on my knowledge and experience.
I hope this helped !
