Hazards / Risks: Environment & Health

Risks categorised under Environment and Health range greatly. Many of them are perhaps something you might associate with a disaster film such as Earthquakes, Volcanos and even a Pandemic, but this area does also include themes such as Animal disease that are likely to be more familiar with. The important thing is that although we can sometimes find it difficult to relate to these (not withstanding a Pandemic), these risks do have an important part to play in our risk landscape as we move forward in time.
