Natural Disasters (Tsunamis)
All the spheres in the system interconnect and overlap. None of the spheres work individually. The hydrosphere and atmosphere connect, through evaporation from the hydrosphere providing the medium for the formation of rain and clouds in the atmosphere. The geosphere and hydrosphere through water providing the moisture and medium for the erosion and weathering of rocks which are on the geosphere. In return, the geosphere provides a platform for bodies of water and ice melts to flow back into the oceans. The atmosphere provides the geosphere with thermal energy which is needed for the rocks erosion and breakdown. In return, the geosphere reflects the sun back into the atmosphere. Biosphere receives sunlight energy, gases, and heat from the atmosphere. Also receives H2O from the hydrosphere and living medium from the geosphere.
Having an understanding of environmental science can aid in handling natural disasters because you have a better understanding of how each of the spheres work individually to form the planet we live in today enabling us to sustain life. Also, we can detect when a natural disaster might break out and we can also tell when it will have an outbreak in the future.
Some efforts we can make to create a sustainable future is keeping the planet greener because as time goes by we just seem to trash it even more. Also, pollution can be dealt with as well to better the future of our spheres.
