5. What can be implied from the trend shown in the data shown below? Explain your
answer.
➢ As what I have observed from the trend shown in the data below, natural
disaster is getting stronger year by year. Even though it is changing year
by year, whether the least or greatest, the point is it is a serious large
number of disasters, fatality, economic damages and people who are
affected. It is so frightening that we have these kinds of events that would
greatly affect us.
