Philippines was world's most disaster-hit country in 2011

MANILA, Philippines - The number of documented natural disasters in the Philippines surged 50 percent last year, making it the world's most disaster-hit country in 2011, according to the Citizens' Disaster Response Center (CDRC).

In a report, the non-government CDRC said natural disasters last year cost the Philippines P26 billion, displacing a record 15.3 million people - a huge jump from the 6.75 million people in 2010.

Carlos Padolina, CDRC deputy executive director, said the records of the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED) showed that 33 of the 302 natural disasters worldwide occurred in the Philippines.

If human-induced disasters, such as armed conflict and fire were included, the total number of disaster would climb to 431, or more than 50 percent the 202 disasters in 2010.

CDRC said 2011 was the first time in six years that disaster frequency surged, reversing a downtrend through 2005.

It said the 15.3 million people displaced by disasters last year exceeded the previous record of 14.5 million in 2006.

CDRC said tropical cyclones explained the jump in the number of displaced people. It cited typhoon Reming in 2006 and tropical storm Ondoy in 2009.

The Philippines' 1,400 casualties from disasters, particularly tropical storm Sendong, was second only to Japan's 1,924.

Famine in East Africa

noreply@blogger.com (joel) — Fri, 12 Oct 2012 08:43:00 -0700

With East Africa facing its worst drought in 60 years, affecting more than 11 million people, the United Nations has declared a famine in the region for the first time in a generation. Overcrowded refugee camps in Kenya and Ethiopia are receiving some 3,000 new refugees every day, as families flee from famine-stricken and war-torn areas. The meager food and water that used to support millions in the Horn of Africa is disappearing rapidly, and families strong enough to flee for survival must travel up to a hundred miles, often on foot, hoping to make it to a refugee center, seeking food and aid. Many do not survive the trip. Officials warn that 800,000 children could die of malnutrition across the East African nations of Somalia, Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Kenya. Aid agencies are frustrated by many crippling situations: the slow response of Western governments, local governments and terrorist groups blocking access, terrorist and bandit attacks, and anti-terrorism laws that restrict who the aid groups can deal with -- not to mention the massive scale of the current crisis. Below are a few images from the past several weeks in East Africa. One immediate way to help is to text "FOOD" to UNICEF (864233) to donate $10, enough to feed a child for 10 days, more ways to help

Destruction Comes to Aleppo

noreply@blogger.com (joel) — Fri, 12 Oct 2012 07:23:00 -0700

Warfare and chaos have come to the ancient streets of Aleppo, Syria's largest city. Rebel groups battling Syrian government forces moved into the metropolis in recent weeks, in an effort to liberate it from the control of Syrian president, Bashar al-Assad. Fierce street battles and air attacks followed, leaving behind a shattered city, strewn with charred rubble and bodies in many places. An estimated 30,000 Syrians have already been killed in the past 18 months of civil war, and as many as 700,000 will have fled the country by the end of 2012, according to the United Nations.

10 million Muslims are suffering in the Horn of Africa amidst the worst drought seen in 60 years. Poverty has become extreme: children are dying of starvation, pregnancies are resulting in miscarriages and farmers' livelihoods are being destroyed.Many mothers along with their children say they have walked for a month on bare and bloodied feet to refugee camps in Kenya. Journeys of more than 300 miles are common. In their search for food and water, they have slept for weeks on burning sand under open skies.Water is now so scarce that the governor of the Middle Shabelle region, Abdullahi Moalim Hussain, recently said: 'Water is so expensive in the area that people are being buried without being washed, which is compulsory in Islam.'

The global food crisis is endangering the lives of nearly one billion hungry people around the world. They are threatened by starvation — a slow and painful death. As worldwide food prices soar, the hope of getting even a meal a day is fading fast. That's why your gift today is so critical.Because of government grants, your gift will be multiplied 6 times to help feed hungry children and families, and provide seeds, tools, and more so they can grow their own food in the future. You will literally help us save lives by making it possible for hungry children to receive life-giving food.In times of crisis it is the poorest populations — especially children — who suffer most. The current food crisis has already pushed another 40 million people deeper into poverty. And tragically, more than 13,000 hungry children die every day. Please give generously to help us continue providing food and other care to those in greatest need.Help those affected by the global food crisis..

Millions of children in Africa are malnourished and at risk of starvation. Your gift today will multiply 7x to provide lifesaving food, clean water, agricultural support, and other essential care to hungry children and families across Africa. Please help save a life today.Imagine being the parent of a hungry child, desperately searching for help while your baby weakens, unable to provide the food and care he or she desperately needs. The numbers of severely malnourished children continue to increase in Africa. Can you help before it's too late? A reliable source of nutritious food can cut a community's child death rate in half. Sadly, rising food and fuel prices have caused some regular food delivery channels to dry up, and many parents can no longer afford to feed their children. Millions now endure life-threatening hunger night and day.Thanks to government grants, your gift today will multiply 7 times to help children and families throughout Africa, where the need is especially urgent in places like Kenya, Sudan, Uganda, and Zimbabwe. Please pray for the hungry children in Africa, and send a life-saving gift today.
