Disasterology : dispatches from the frontlines of the climate crisis / Dr. Samantha Montano. by Montano, Samantha. Park Row Books, 2021. Call #: 363.73874 M765d Subjects Climatic changes.   Natural disasters.   Emergency management.   Preparedness. ISBN:  9780778311034 (hc) Description:  380 p. ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (p. [319]-361) and index. Summary:  "In Disasterology, Dr. Montano, a disaster researcher, brings readers with her on an eye-opening journey through some of our worst disasters, helping readers make sense of what really happened from a emergency management perspective. She explains why we aren't doing enough to prevent or prepare for disasters, the critical role of media, and how our approach to recovery was not designed to serve marginalized communities. Now that climate change is contributing to the disruption of ecosystems and worsening disasters, Dr. Montano offers a preview of what will happen to our communities if we don't take aggressive, immediate action. In a section devoted to the COVID-19 pandemic, what is thus far our generation's most deadly disaster, she casts light on the many decisions made behind closed doors that failed to protect the public."--Publisher.
