This is one thing that human beings have no control over. Mother Nature will win, every time. As a breed, human beings feel superior to every other living creature. We even think we can beat things we can’t even see, such as viruses. Maybe we can, maybe science will keep one step ahead of all the microbes which would like to wipe us off the face of the planet. But we still can do nothing about the weather. We can’t stop the earth reaching temperatures not conducive for human habitat. We think we will beat global warming, but can we, actually?
We’ll try, you’ve got admire the resilience of mankind. But will we win, that is the question?
In Eastern Australia we had floods on such a scale never before seen. People drowned. They were stuck in their attics where they’d climbed to try to flee the rising waters. They died there as they tried to escape onto steel roofs, but were unable to access the outside. Drowned like rats in a bucket.
The UK had the hottest summer days on record. Imagine temperatures of 40 plus cent in England!
So to answer the question of how to protect people before these phenomena happen. We can’t. It’s as simple as that. Even if we could warn people about expected extreme heat, or cold, or floods, cyclonic winds, hurricanes and biblical amounts of rain, it would make no difference. We should have listened to the scientists of fifty or sixty years ago when they were forecasting climate change. But we’ve left it too late.
