The balance
of nature is often disturbed by catastrophes partly due to natural
forces and often due to man modifying the environment by emitting
chemical substances in the atmosphere or engaging in war. Man has thus
broken his pact with nature, an essential paradigm to bestow a livable
planet to our children.

to such catastrophes beg for the necessity of immediate crisis
management. This includes the psychiatric aspect, in so far as
environmental changes are almost always follow by modifications of the
human psyche at times serious even dangerous.
