Dehydration, drought, deforestation, rising ocean and sea water levels due to the melting of glaciers, increased evaporation due to warming, and severe hurricanes resulting from the temperature- pressure difference resulting from the circulation of evaporated water masses in the atmosphere are among the disasters caused by global warming. While the devastations experienced after disasters resulting from global warming reach a level that a single country cannot combat, it creates a need for international cooperation. Thousand of people are displaced in the crisis environment that occurs after disasters, and this displacement brings environmental security threats. In the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in the USA in 2005, which is the subject of the study, the impact area of the disaster was wide as a result of the Bush Government and FEMA’s failure to make pre-disaster preparations at an optimal level and the dams and breakwaters built during the preliminary preparation process for the possible disaster failed. It has been revealed through information obtained from the US press that the disaster was described as man-made. Qualitative research techniques were used in the study and a literature review was conducted.}, number={27}, publisher={Karadeniz Teknik Üniversitesi}
