What is It
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
3 NegOr_Q4_PEH12_Modulea4b_V2
Outdoor recreational activities have so much to offer to people. These
includes fun and pleasure, general wellness of an individual, and sometimes
environmental hazard.
According to the School Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Manual
Booklet 1 of DepEd, “hazard is a dangerous phenomenon, condition, substance, or
human activity that may cause loss of life, injury or other health impacts, property
damage, social and economic disruption, loss of livelihoods and services, or
environmental damage”.
Mishaps are avoidable. The most effective way to prevent them is to
adequately prepare for the trip that includes knowing the environmental hazard you
may encounter during the outdoor recreational activity.
In https://www.suu.edu/ n.d., “any outdoor activity has inherent risks. When planning
a project in the outdoors it is important to account for the risk, accept the ones you
cannot change, and mitigating the risk you can”. When assessing the potential
environmental hazards you need to look at three factors.
1. Location and terrain
The terrain is defined as the specific physical
features of an area of land. The location and the terrain
contribute to the hazardous conditions when staying and
walking into the site. Some environmental hazards that
depend upon your location and terrain are uneven
surfaces, wet grass, and mud, holes in the ground can

cause trips or falls, rocky trails, exposed ledges, darkness
and poison ivy.
2. Season/Climate
Keep an eye on the current and predicted weather
conditions. Know the signs for approaching storms or
changing weather conditions. Some areas are
susceptible to certain types of severe weather. Weather
hazards includes lightning
and thunderstorms,
flooding and flash
flooding,strong winds and
tornadoes, freezing rain
and hail, and being
Overexpose to sun.
