4 Read the extract opposite from a news report. Then discuss the questions that follow.

Almost 80 per cent of the poorest people in the

world live in areas that are affected by frequent

natural disasters. People living in these areas

may have no access to fresh water or to land

that is suitable for farming. This results in a very

poor diet.

With climate change, the situation may get

worse. Natural disasters seem to be happening

more often and this will have an even greater

impact on the people and their land.

The WFO (World Food Programme) is an aid

organisation that tries to reduce the impact of

these natural disasters on people in the region.

It works with the governments and communities

of disaster areas to make sure that food and fresh

water can get through to all the regions affected

by the disaster, even the most remote areas.

The organisation is also helping countries to

!nd ways to warn people about disasters.

By doing this, it hopes that the people will be

ready for a disaster and know what to do when

one is forecast. This will hopefully lead to more

people surviving as they have time to move to

safer areas.
