Prevent is better than secure.

This expression should be understood by all the parties because by prevention we can control any problem from happening or maybe just occurs in little case and this method also can save more people or creatures from died compared to the secure method. How we want to prevent or control this kind of natural disaster from happen or how we can control the sum of people who die when that disaster is coming? Today, there are many ways to help prevent and control floods. First of all, we should constructed flood-control dams throughout history across rivers. Other than that, we must built dikes and levees alongside rivers to keep them from overflowing during periods of high water and used canals to help drain off extra water. Otherwise, streams and rivers can be diverted to avoid highly populated areas and prevention of soil erosion also can helps in control flooding, which is by plant lots of trees. Experts are also warning people not to build their homes or others infrastructures in high flood risk areas. Installing a flash flood warning system in the community is also one of importance one. This is important to make sure we are in ready mode to face the flash flood disaster. During the flash flood, there are some safety measures to save our life and property. First of all, we must pack our valuable items, such as personal documents, any important certificates and others in a sealed bag. After that, we should turn off the main switch that controls the electricity system of our house and make a food planning to make sure our food are enough when this disaster is happen. If we get the warning of flash flood, take help of the emergency services immediately and while waiting for emergency services, we can take shelter on a higher ground. When flash flood is happen, it will create a panicky situation, and if the safety measures are followed, our life and property maybe can be saved. The only requirement is our alertness, more we are alert, the less damage we will have to deal with it. All of that suggestion can prevent and control this natural disaster if all the parties play their roles seriously. As a conclusion, we already know that people cannot control the nature, so, priority should be given to supporting research with practical applications since research is needed to understand the physical and biological factors that contribute to disasters. Since major impact of the natural disasters like flash flood is on poor farmers with limited means in developing countries, community wide awareness and education programs on natural disasters should be a priority. In addition, programs for improving prediction methods and dissemination of warnings should be expanded and efforts are also needed to determine the impact of disasters on natural resources. In the past, these disasters have caused millions of dollars worth in damage for over the world. So, to survive, we must prepare ourselves with the supplies and knowledge necessary for survival in the future.
