I agree that we should be as prepared as possible for natural disasters, but I don't know the feasability of preparing for every possible scenario.
We'd have to prepare for flooding, earthquakes, and fires in California.
Drought and tornadoes in the Midwest.
Hurricanes and flooding in the Gulf Coast.
Ice and Cold in the Northeast.
Volcanoes and earthquakes in the Northwest and Alaska.
I don't think it would be possible to be so prepared for every disaster that there would be no catastrophe.
There will always be the risk of catastrophe as long as we inhabit areas prone to disaster and create those dangers ourselves through our use of our environment.
