Overview

Considered to be a more comprehensive version of Richard's former infotainment show Full Force Nature, Anatomy of a Disaster features different stories of tragedy, survival, and heroism based on the GRB Entertainment-produced documentary series Earth's Fury (also known as Anatomy of Disaster).[1] Each of the 13 episodes provides an account of various natural disasters such as volcanic eruption, flood, hurricane, earthquake, and climate change, among others, in both local and international contexts.[2]

The local component of the show interviews environmental experts and eyewitness accounts.

The pilot episode on volcanic eruption described the Mount Pinatubo eruption, the second-largest volcanic eruption of the 20th century.

The show claims that readiness is a key element for survival, and provides viewers with information and strategies on how to respond to and prepare for future disasters.
