Also when it floods, what can people do? Try to drink up all the water? No one can possibly drink up all the water because there is just too much of it. What about the bushfires? Who can control them? You may think that firefighters always put the fires out but there are always fires left. Only a few weeks ago a terrible fire started in Victoria and more than 209 people died. That is why I think most natural diasters do have a place in life. Crystal Mai        //=====

<span style="display: block; color: rgb(134, 19, 29); font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;">I think it does have a natural order of life. Some people make these diasters(which is quite horrible, of course.)like asonist. Sometimes volcanoes or earthquakes happen and those could be natural disasters and no one can stop them. You can't just stop them just saying "hello bushfire, i command you to stop!" //**__Grace__**// =====

<span style="color: rgb(203, 82, 82); font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;">Natural disasters is part of the way the world works, it is inevitable. Bushfires have existed for as long as trees. Some bushfires can be beneficial for the environment, and like Toby stated, it is natures way of regenerating. Another example is that volcanoes have built many of the islands we live on today. Also, when volcanoes erupt, some healthy gases for example, carbon dioxide and hydrogen are released. When oxygen mixes with hydrogen, it creates water vapour that begins the water cycle. Whether it's earthquakes, floods and windstorms, even though they may cause a large scale of destruction, disasters do have a natural order in life. However, this only applies for NATURAL disasters. Disasters such as the recent Victorian bushfire, which was deliberately lit are not part of the natural order in life. They are simply acts of cruelty. There are also beneficial bushfires which have been used by Indigenous people in Australia for many years, in a process called 'backburning' which helps promote tree growth.**LEON**

On the other hand some are __//**not**//__ a place in the order in life because they can be stopped.

My opinion is, you should not try to stop some thing that there is no chance of stopping. __//Laura//__ <span style="font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">__**//<span style="color: rgb(113, 255, 0); font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; background-color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"> Most natural disasters do have a place in the natural world including tsunamies, bushfires, cyclones, volcanos erupting and tornados. But, sometimes these disasters are caused by humans, like some arsonists lighted some of the bushfires in Victoria. To rap this up, most disasters are an order of life, but, some can also be caused by humans. Mark //**__ Most disasters have been caused by nature and have been quite terrifying at the time they occur, but sometimes it benefits nature such as when a huge bush fire occurs, many native australian plants and trees release their seeds and the rest dies. The seeds grow in nutrient-rich ash and this is the cycle of aussie nature.__//Vivienne//__ Very few of the bushfires were caused by arson. Nearly all of the bushfires were caused by nature and then could have been re-lit by the arsonists. Hundreds of years ago ( like in 1500's) and there were no matches all of the bushfires were natural. I agree with Joyce. In the volcano eruption in Pompeii, who was in the wrong place? The volcano or the village?? That is it, the village!!! Get it now?-Toby <span style="color: rgb(156, 0, 255); font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;"> //Many disasters are natural and part of the natural order of life. But some fires which are deliberately lit (by arsons) should be stopped immediately. But other disasters such as tsunamis, cyclones and tornados should be left and not destroyed. Most disasters are an order of life but the ones which are deliberately made should not be left. Catherine Yu//
 * Disasters do massive destruction, destroying buildings and injuring creatures. Fires help the eucalypt or eucalyptus tree reproduce as the leaves have oil and the seeds need to burn off the tree before growing. Tsunamis, meteorites, earthquakes, floods or typhoons can wipe out areas of overpopulation. Volcanoes reshape and create land, for example, Hawaii, the volcanic islands. Volcanoes made the land of Hawaii, and it is visited now. However, I do not think supervolcanoes (1 in America) are part of the natural order. Tim** <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">

i think that most natural disasters are part of the natural order of live because sometimes nature is regenerating itself. Disasters happen for a reason such as Cyclone Tracey happened probably because it would bring rain or wind and moisturise the trees so they grow bigger and then they could absorb more carbon dioxyde.

Australia is a country where refugees come, and the amount of people are getting larger and larger. We don't want to start a system like the Chinese did that you can only have one baby - Australia is a free country. Bush fires definitely regenerate the bush, but since Australia is so hot, fires can spread rapidly and it is no good to light one, even if they, as I said before, regenerate the bush. Even if there were some good parts in bush fires, many innocent people were killed and it was a shame that it had to happen to Victoria     <span style="color: rgb(131, 43, 212);">. <span style="font-size: 120%; color: rgb(83, 233, 231); font-family: Georgia,serif;">–Shenoa I believe that most natural disasters have a place in the natural order of life. A few bushfires, unfortunately, are the result of human error or the work of arsonists, and therefore do not have a place in the natural order of life. For example, for a huge bushfire you need bad weather i.e. a strong wind and a few other things. But you also need fuel for the fire to feed on. In Victoria all these requirements were met. This does not mean that all disasters can be stopped. Like Mark said on the other page, a tsunami caused by a volcanic eruption out at sea can't be stopped. The majority of natural disasters that are truly terrifying have a place in the natural order of life and are unstoppable. To cut a long story short, most natural disasters have a place in the natural order of life but some disasters are, however infinitesimal the number, the result of arson. -Abhishek

I do agree that some disasters are caused naturally and also are used naturally. Although they are useful they also do a lot of damage to land, animals and humans. Well these are all natural disasters but things like wars and terrorist attacks are still disasters. Disasters are a 'natural' part of life cause they will always happen, but that doesn't mean that they are good. -William.

I think that disasters have a place in the natural order because this will always happen in the future. This even happened when the Aboriginals were here before the British. Unfortunately, people do light fires, for this reason, it can be deadly. When I mean by deadly, I mean animals, trees and humans can be killed. Sometimes backburning, a controlled fire lit deliberately by firefighters can be helpful. I think that they should do more backburning during winter when there is Cold Southerly Winds, because this enables the fire from spreading quickly. Unlike when in summer and there are Hot Northerly Winds, this makes the fire rush in a second. So I think that disasters is part of the cycle and at some times it can be good but at other times, it can be bad. Patrick //

I completely agree with Patrick. Disasters do have a place in the natural order of life but only if they are not deliberately started by humans and they have been happening ever since the earth was in the solar system. Fires help trees let out seed pods into the ground so we get more young trees and less old trees so that we get more oxygen. **Tara** <span style="color: rgb(0, 16, 255);"> <span style="color: rgb(0, 16, 255);">I think that disasters //do// have a place in the natural order of life because it causes trouble. Not only trouble, big trouble. It can kill people, take them away from their family, friends and their loved ones. Sometimes people make small fires to burn leaves to //sto////p// big fires from appearing. They are just preventing fires fromm happening but sometimes REAL disasters do happen, eg. fires, floods, tsunamis, and cyclones. Those are just a few of all disasters that ruin peoples lives. ~ Alvie

SO WE NEED NATURAL DISASTERS. BUT IT IS JUST WHEN THEY END IN TRAGEDY EVERYBODY SUDDENLY THINKS THAT THEY ARE BAD. BUT IN SOME CASES THEY ARE GOOD. OUR WORLD WOULDN'T BE THE SAME WITHOUT NATURAL DISASTERS. EMILY I think that disasters do have a place in the natural order of life because you can't stop some disasters, but some are on purpose. Without some natural disaters, our world would never be the same. We sometimes need some fires to spread the seeds of some plants and also leave room for more trees to grow. So I think that disasters DO have a place in the natural order of life. Nathan

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> Natural disasters do have a place in the natural order of life. You can’t stop natural disasters from happening. However, they provide benefits to the environment. Bushfires help plants reproduce, tsunamis help make the soil more fertile and volcanic eruptions are very important in providing fertilizer to the land and sea. Bushfires caused by arsonists shouldn’t be called a natural disaster because they are NOT natural, they are deliberately caused by humans. <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Horace

l think that disasters have a natural place in the world. this is because if a bushfire happened, and no one had lit it, it could of started by 2 sticks rubbing together. you can't just go off and stop the natural disasters happening from the world. Sometimes, natural disasters could help the enviroment. But in another way, it could destroy wild life or nature. Say something like the Victirian Bushfires. Some of them WERE lit on purpose, but some WERE NOT. Everything that happenes in the world shouldn't be called a deliberate inccident. Raylia

Many disaters can happen naturally but some are caused by people. Natural disasters are good and bad. Some cant be hlped and turn into tradgedies like cyclones,eartquake,tsunamies.You cantry to predict weather but you can't change it.People l ike arsonists can be stopped causing havoc to others.

<span style="font-size: 60%; color: rgb(247, 254, 230); font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">I think disasters do have a place in the natural order of life. Some disasters are cyclones, earthquakes, tsunamies, bushfires, erupting volcanoes and typhoons. Natural disasters do have a place in life. You can predict them sometimes from the weather patterns but you can't stop them. Disasters are sometimes good and sometimes bad. For example, a bushfire could kill lots of people and animals. However, if there is too much growth of one type of plant then the bushfire will burn some of that plant and will grow some other plants. All the fuel is burnt so there won't be another bushfire in a while. It's like natures way of cleaning up and regenerating. There can be man- made disasters as well. Man-made disasters are bad because people have done it purposely and cause great destruction. Alexander Lin i agree with everyone who says that bushfires are natures way of regenerating-huw(again)

I<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> think NATURAL disasters do have a place in the order of life. Otherwise how will trees grow. they might also kill plants that are a pest and that are overgrowing. You can't all stop natural disasters but you can stop manmade ones. Manmades disasters dont have an order in life and just cause havoc ======

=
<span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">I agree with everyone that says that natural disasters have a place in life because, no one in the world not even the smartest person in the world can stop it. Even though people can evacuate and escape because of some weather predictions, the disaster will happen anyway. We only think they're one of the worse things that can happen to you because we also create manmade disasters and that makes us all pesimistic but if there were no unnatural disasters, we wouldn't be as anxious and more peopple will accept it as a place in the order of life. If this was true, natural diasters will be the WORST thing that can happen to you. ======
