Check understanding
- Explain how bushfire risk is managed (e.g. hazard reduction burns, cultural burning, fire danger ratings and bushfire plans) and the consequences of a major bushfire
- Describe how a community manages flood or cyclone risk (e.g. levees, flood maps, cyclone-rated buildings after Cyclone Tracy in 1974)
- Explain how farmers and communities manage drought (e.g. water storage and restrictions) and its consequences
“Can your child explain how Australians prepare for and manage bushfires, floods or droughts — like fire danger ratings, levees and water restrictions?”
