520 Natural disasters are having an increasing effect on the
lives of people in the United States and throughout the
world. Every decade, property damage caused by natural
disasters and hazards doubles or triples in the United
States. More than half of the U.S. population lives within
50 miles of a coast, and all Americans are at risk from
such hazards as fires, earthquakes, floods, and wind. The
year 2010 saw 950 natural catastrophes around the world--
the second highest annual total ever--with overall losses
estimated at $130 billion. The increasing impact of
natural disasters and hazards points to increasing
importance of resilience, the ability to prepare and plan
for, absorb, recover from, or more successfully adapt to
actual or potential adverse events, at the individual,
local, state, national, and global levels. <em>Assessing
National Resilience to Hazards and Disasters</em> reviews
the effects of Hurricane Katrina and other natural and
human-induced disasters on the Gulf Coast of Louisiana and
Mississippi and to learn more about the resilience of
those areas to future disasters. Topics explored in the
workshop range from insurance, building codes, and
critical infrastructure to private-sector issues, public
health, nongovernmental organizations and governance. This
workshop summary provides a rich foundation of information
to help increase the nation's resilience through
actionable recommendations and guidance on the best
approaches to reduce adverse impacts from hazards and
disasters.
