Solution
- Environmental stress is the strain caused by disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, super cyclones, and floods.
- These events have a significant influence on the physical and mental health of many people, requiring a lengthy recovery period.
- For example, the 1999 Super Cyclone in Odisha, as well as tsunamis in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and India, caused considerable stress and disruption.
- Pollution, noise, and overcrowding are examples of second-order environmental stressors that are less severe but still have a negative impact on health.
