The correct answer is: The necessity to organize safety management for disasters and integrate it into emergency management

The events of September 11, 2001, and subsequent anthrax attacks were devastating and highlighted the importance of having a well-organized safety management system in place for disasters. Option A is incorrect because it is not related to emergency management, and option C is incorrect because local festivals would not address the issue of disaster management. Option D is also incorrect because if anything, the events of 9/11 showed the need for increased government spending on emergency preparedness. Therefore, option B is the most relevant and accurate choice.
