Why Doesn't Our Government Do Anything about Floods and Fires and Drought

I don't get it ... we have floods and fires and droughts and we have inquiries about them, but nothing happens.  


 


Couldn't we move the water around to help with fires and droughts?  Couldn't we store some of the water from rain and flood to assist in droughts and fires?  Couldn't we put systems in place to be prepared for natural catastrophes?  Couldn't we do more to prepare for fires BEFORE they happen?  Couldn't we make dams bigger, or make more dams, or store the water to prevent flooding?  


 


Why do we just let disasters happen again and again and again?

My house in Darwin was one storey, with a concrete slab on the base and another concrete slab as part of the roof.  Solid as a rock, but lots of glass.  Built after cyclone Tracy.
