What are physical environmental hazards?

Physical environmental hazards are natural or man-made conditions that pose risks to health, safety, and well-being. Examples include extreme weather events (like hurricanes and floods), geological hazards (such as earthquakes and landslides), and exposure to harmful substances (like radiation or pollutants). These hazards can lead to injuries, property damage, and long-term health effects. Understanding and mitigating these risks is crucial for community safety and preparedness.
