A zoom on Floods

1. THE FLOODS.

2. First possibility of flood:
• It is when there is too much
water in a stream, so there is
a a flood. It is caused by
snow melt and the rain.

3. Second possibility:
• Accumulation of water is
caused by important
precipitation which can't
be evacuated.

4. third possibility:
• Rise of ground-water sheets.

5. Fourth possibility:
• Cyclones, tsunamis,
hurricanes, storms and sea
level rises up.

6. • The floods are natural disasters which can be mortal. The floods
after the tsunami on 24th december in 2014 killed more than 220
000 people. the cyclone Nargis drowned more than 140 000
people according to the UN. every year dozens of thousand
people are killed by the floods.

7. Property damage:
A lot of property damage are provoked by the floods:
They destroy homes, cars, roads, buildings and
materials and pipes of drinking water.

8. Climate change.
The consequences of climate change are more
precipitations, the glaciers melt, the sea level rises
up, there are more cyclones and storms.
If we want to stop this, we need to take decisions
for the fight against global warming.

9. The action for the
prevention.
-We'd better limit constructions in flood-risk areas.
- we could build dams.
- We could use more weather forecasts.
- We'd better inform and evacuate the population.
