Episode Synopsis "Episode 5 - When it's flooded, don't forget us! "

After what has been quite a while since my last podcast episode, I wanted to talk about some important current events and look at why disaster preparedness is crucial to planning, in the light of the recent flooding events across Queensland and New South Wales.  This episode is a discussion on some of the key considerations in flood planning, disaster response and weighing up some of the benefits and challenges of planning being a political process.  Find out more about weather event categorisation here: http://www.bom.gov.au/water/designRainfalls/rainfallEvents/why100years.shtml
