Oh, please. Most of the currently inhabited land surface of Earth does not experience any of the things you mention. But the media don't want us to be bored, so they don't run stories about how nicely habitable most of the Earth is. They only run stories about the small portion of Earth's land surface that experiences disasters. To extrapolate that to the entire planet, as you are doing, is ridiculous.
