a. Which regions are high-risk (darkest shade) in terms of: 1) earthquakes? 2) landslides? 3) volcanic eruptions? 4) tsunamis? b. Are there regions where all the four risks are highly present? List them down. c. If you will choose a province to live, where will it be? Why?
Answer (1)
a. High-risk areas (darkest shade):1. Earthquakes – Near West Valley Fault and parts of Northern Luzon2. Landslides – Mountainous areas like Baguio and Sierra Madre3. Volcanic eruptions – Bicol (Mayon), CALABARZON (Taal), and parts of Mindanao4. Tsunamis – Coastal areas in Eastern Luzon, Eastern Visayas, and Mindanaob. Regions with all four risks:* Bicol Region* Eastern Visayas* Cordillera Region* Southern Mindanaoc. Where to live and why:I would live in a safer province like Nueva Ecija because it has less risk of volcanoes and tsunamis and still has good facilities.
