Natural disasters cost 380 billion dollars to the world economy in 2011
A figure that breaks the record. Natural disasters cost 380 billion dollars to the world economy in 2011, announced on the 5th of March the special representative of the UN Secretary General for natural disasters prevention. The Japanese earthquake, of its own, and the tsunami and the nuclear incident that followed, provoked damages evaluated at 2010 billion dollars by the UN. 

This total amount is the "minimum" evaluated and overtakes the 2005 last record of 75%, the year when the hurricane Katrina laid waste to the United States, specified the UN representative, Margareta Wahlström.
