Wild Card's description
This could include events like Oil spills, major earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, nuclear events, forest fires or pandemics. These would have differing effects from serious flooding of coastal cities and seaboards due to earthquakes triggering tsunamis, maybe the grounding of aircraft due to volcanoes, and further marine and other wildlife may be destroyed by environmental disasters. Improved forecasting would help with this as well as developing advanced technologies to analyse data. Further developments could be made around industrial biotechnology solutions for waste and toxic material elimination.
