(1983) in distinguishing public (or what we might call societal) hazards from private (individual) ones. | As noted above, the simple division of hazards is between those which are natural and those which are technological or human-induced. | The further subdivision of natural hazards is self-explanatory as is that of individual technological hazards. |
