Australia needs a system of pumps and pipelines to channel this water around. It's dry as hell here in the south. Where are the clever engineers?

When $ becomes the object of worship then punishment is sure to come down, our fisheries sell to overseas markets, and we are sold catfish fillets from farms from Asia, not just seafood it's across the board, face the consequences!!!

It's estimated that 25% of the steel bridges in the US could fail in 25 years, that's around 10% or 50, 000 of all the bridges, can you believe it? Hope they won’t. But search: Anything that has collapsed or crumbled in the US like "bridges such as I-35W", "roads”, "buildings”, "pedestrian overpasses”, you will see some of them just collapsed themselves without even being flooded or anything. Indeed, this is our wake up call. It's a shame a lot of those that collapsed on themselves didn't last 50 years (some of which less than 10 years) in the US, and the US has been experiencing the number of railroad fatalities and injuries (those onboard the train) at least 10 times higher than China on an annual basis. Just unbelievable. And the US has far less basic infrastructure than China (e.g. bridges, tunnels, dams, buildings, ports, subways, high speed rail, 5/5.5g network, electricity network, etc. ), which makes it even far more ironic. Just an example, a very QUICK AND SIMPLE EXAMPLE

Wonder if this area will get a survival package like other areas did for the cyclone 🌀.

Studying BOMs online site..pathetic fail..it would be easy for them to do better...mainly because they couldnt be any worse.

Just asking but if you knew heavy rain was coming and floods likely why didnt you move you stock to higher ground earlier. Ive known this weather event was coming for around a week now, cant say you didnt know.

There is going to have to be, huge dams and pipelines built, the southern states need more water
