I. Read the text and then answer the two questions below.

An environmental emergency is a sudden onset disaster or accident resulting

from natural, technological or human-induced factors, or a combination of
these, that cause or threaten to cause severe environmental damage as well as
loss of human lives and property. This term is coming into increasingly common usage as the link
between disasters and the environment becomes better understood. It relates to the interface
between disasters, human life and health, and the environment.

In general, environmental emergencies distinguish between three scenarios: (1) classic

environmental emergency (also referred to as technological or industrial accidents); (2) sudden on-
set natural disaster with major negative impacts on human life and welfare and on the environment;
and (3) complex emergencies with major environmental impacts (more commonly known as conflict
or war).

Environmental emergencies in the narrow sense are technological or industrial accidents and
usually involve some type of hazardous material and can occur at any location where these
materials are produced, used or transported. Common locations include pesticide storage sites,
hospitals, railway marshalling yards, and numerous different industrial manufacturing sites.
