Question

Are floods preventable?

Answer 1

Although floods are a natural occurrence, nearly all of the most severe damage caused by flooding is preventable if intelligent land-use practices are followed.

In recent history, efforts to prevent damage from floods have focused on engineering-based approaches to flood control. I prefer to talk about a more holistic type of flood prevention which combines some engineering-based solutions with land-use patterns that minimize the negative effects of floods.
