Summary/Abstract: The 1970-2019 WMO disaster report numbers (2021) reported 71 cases for Turkey, 56 cases for Greece, 88 cases for Russia, 93 cases for Iran, 41 cases for Bulgaria and 848 cases for the USA. “Compound disaster”; sandstorm, precipitation, flood, landslide, water rise, extreme heat, drought and associated fires. These are discussed in the “integrated reason”. Awaking up local observations from ten years of sleep, susceptibility to dust and tornado complaints, planting tall and dusty trees, wind-flowing buildings and olive groves are now necessary for all of us. At this point, we tried to understand how media/media organizations capture and convey current climate details.
