Abstract
Environment disaster linkages become more prominent where people are more dependent on natural resources. In several cases, environment becomes a cause, and disaster becomes the impact. Climate change impacts in terms of typhoon and catastrophic flooding are usual examples. On the other hand, in some cases, disaster becomes the cause, and environmental problems become the impacts. Disaster debris is a classic example of this, where the debris issues can be treated as an environmental problem, which is caused by a disaster.
