Question 8

Suggest two impacts of Typhoon Haiyan on Tacloban. Use evidence from Figure 3a in your answer.

Figure 3a: A photograph showing a coastal residential area of Tacloban in the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan. A large cargo ship has been washed far inland, completely crushing several small houses beneath its hull. Surrounding wooden dwellings are entirely flattened into piles of timber and corrugated iron debris. Electricity poles are snapped and leaning at acute angles with tangled power lines draped over the wreckage. In the foreground, local residents are seen scavenging through the debris under a grey sky.
