What would be the best way
to reduce hurricane damage? Should we change
building codes to require houses to be stronger and
raised over likely flooding, develop natural or
technological barriers to prevent flooding, and/or stop
providing government-subsidized insurance for people who
choose to build in flood zones? For any technological
solution you propose, discuss the impact of that
technology on different groups within society. Who
benefits and who loses out? If you prefer
non-technological solutions, explain why technology is
not the best way to solve the problem. You must
support your argument with specific evidence from events
that have already happened.
