Flood the natural disaster

[oktana]

I’m not sure if it can be fixed but the best that be done is to prepare for it. The places that get flooded are known for it, hence, the residents of such cities should always be prepared. I believe that the government should be able to warn residents while it is early while they implement drainage systems and creating structures that can resist flood. Natural disasters are really difficult to tackle, be it flood, tornadoes, wildfire, volcanic eruption, etc.

Floods are disasters caused by nature with negative consequences. It may also result in deaths, destruction of property, and other implications. It can spread illness caused by water such as cholera, malaria, and typhoid through mosquito bites, which can take time to recover from. So we need to notify people before the flood strikes, or better yet, build structures or areas where water will discharge. These advances can assist reduce the amount of water that enters the drainage ditches while also improving the condition of the water. Although certain floods are caused by humans, such as rainforest and a faulty sewage system, we are asked to take measures to reduce the effects of flooding on society.

Although floods are natural disasters, they are largely caused by our actions. Because it is increasing day by day due to climate change. Floods are usually caused by snowmelt due to excess rainfall due to river filling due to landslides or other causes of drainage obstruction such as dams. Due to global warming the temperature of the earth is increasing day by day and the polar ice caps are slowly melting which is causing floods. Different types of floods such as regional floods riverine floods estuarine floods and coastal area floods urban floods when analyzing the causes of these floods, it can be seen that they are caused by climate change. So we need to be environmentally conscious now and plant more trees and every country should take the necessary steps to reduce global warming.

The natural disaster might be difficult to be avoided but it is always better for a quick evaluation. Flood is also natural disaster that can be prevented or reduced in damages to the environment. Food is very important for life and continuity and we need to be wise and trying much to bring technology that would reduce the impact of food vectors because this is one of the main reasons why we do have food shortages. People could plants more but avestt little because of damages to plants.

This natural disaster is something that has become a yearly nightmare all around the world...
It displaces people... properties... businesses...lost of lives.etc
I think there should be an organization all around the world to tackle this to an extent..
What's your take on this?

The fact is that natural disasters never bring news of their arrival, but various institutions can predict the arrival of these disasters even though the accuracy level is below 50%, flood disasters can actually be prevented with many aspects that must be taken. One of the core elements of flood prevention is human resources. Why so ? humans become actors in flood disasters, humans who throw rubbish carelessly into rivers, humans who selfishly cut trees blindly. Of course, this can really minimize flood disasters if no one does this bad habit anymore. Infiltration wells to deal with flood disasters have recently become very trendy, after the Governor of DKI Jakarta (Indonesia) Anies Rasyid Baswedan succeeded in changing Jakarta, which was prone to flooding every rainy season, to zero cases of flooding in Jakarta. Of course, in this modern era, cities/villages which are prone to flood disasters, absorption wells are considered very effective in dealing with flood disasters. In essence, preventing flood disasters is changing the bad habits of the population. do not throw rubbish carelessly into rivers or small drains. ..

Thats really sad but we are helpless. We are so advance now then before but even having world advance technology, we still unable to stop such nature disesters and as a result, trillion of dollar worth property get damaged as well as many lives have been lost.  Btw many organizations are working to alert people Earlier, reduce losses and from dengerous. And yeah many organizations are available to help people who are become victim of such natural disasters. Even governments also help people with their best effort

[Albarq]

in reality we know that flood can cause significant
material losses and include affected people.

,with a huge loss such as a damaged ecosystem and to restore it takes a long time  and to
overcome it is  difficult because it repeats it self every year.

There are lot of agencies in control and manages the roles of floods. The national emergency management agency  known as (NEMA) is  a government institution that regulates the disasterous circumstances of floods.
There are also international flooding institutes which are EMO and the UNESCO flood management organizations, a program in response to floods occurances in an international relationship.

The rate concurring of floods this time around is a caused of lack of urban planning or ignorance of water threats. People don't make easy flows of water by the drainages anymore, they littered and blocked the water ways including fast approach of development in such that people now build structure towards water on forcefully chasing and redirecting the water to when the closer by damp has accumulated as much amount of water it can handle them the water overflows and finds its way to flow irresistibly nomatter what crosses its way to It makes the situation unbearable for those who dared it by occupying its axis.
So if we can keep our drainages clean and avoid the waterways and also create a more accomodating damp to consume more or the water during overflows then it would be marginal to be manageable. Hence the water disasterous pressures would wouldn't be so intensive but would be a calming situation.

Government have the capacity to stop this flood, that is affecting some countries every raining season to destroy people properties, farmers crops and other things just to cause hardship in the land but government is avoiding their responsibility not to budget some money that will reach the people  to tackle the situation.

Now that some countries has enter the raining season already and all those politicians that promised such people to end the flood disaster during campaigns rally will not be allow such society to come close their office because, they know what they are coming to do in their office and this is not what one person can do in a society to stop the flood disaster without the support of the government.

Flood have really damaged so many things and have also taken so many live, and I thank God that it did not com last year

[Gormicsta]

Flooding is for sure a natural disaster and as well as loss of life and damage to property
it also ruins peoples way of making a living particularly farming.

Its the flash floods after a long dry spell which can cause a lot of damage, the ground
can be baked hard before heavy rain and the water cannot soak but flow instead.

Climate change is the cause as we are told but as we have seen governments are slow to act.

Yes, they are too slow but they can also help by taking various initiatives to help minimize the impacts of flooding, in the immediate and distant futures. For example, they can improve flood predicting and alert systems, giving people enough time to escape if necessary. They may also put money in facilities, such as flood protection and channels for drainage, to keep towns safe from flooding. In the long run, governments can try to minimize emissions of carbon dioxide that contribute to climate change. They can also help farmers with things like agricultural insurance and disaster assistance. All of these methods can assist to strengthen local resistance to flooding and protect the livelihoods of individuals.

There are still many people in my country who do not dispose of unused household waste due to ignorance. Especially dumping in rivers or drains. As a result the drainage system becomes sub-optimal and the area becomes waterlogged during light rains. It is also a type of natural disaster which is man-made i.e. we create it. But from a larger perspective flood control is something that can only be solved if a country is aware of it. For example, if a country dams flowing rivers to solve its internal problems or for its benefit and opens them up every monsoon season to drain excess water, there is a strong possibility that other countries will be flooded every monsoon season. And if dams are constructed in seasons other than floods, it will lead to drought. So to save from natural calamities like floods we need positive intervention of all countries along with our own awareness so that a country does not face losses in natural calamities or can recover quickly even if it is drowned in losses.
