Directions. Suppose you are one of the leading researchers in your coastal

community. A land developer wants to build a mall that is 20 feet off the edge of the

coast. He presented that his mall will not be affected by coastal processes because

there were no records of any major damages done in your community. As a

researcher, what are the problems that the land developer might encounter if he

would continue to build his mall? Answer the question in the form of a letter.

Directions. Read and answer the following.

1. Have you ever experienced any form of hydrometeorological hazards such as

tropical cyclones, monsoons, floods and ipo-ipo? How did you feel? What did

you do during and after the situation?

2. If you have never experienced any form of hydrometeorological hazards, look

for someone who was able to witness and experience it first-hand. Ask them

their feelings and thoughts during and after the hazard event. Also, ask them

the things they did during and after the scenario.
