Disaster 4: Droughts

       Welcome, today I will be explaining ways on how to survive a drought. Droughts can occur anywhere,
varying from region to region. Droughts are dangerous to a certain degree and if one is not prepared to face
one it can be even more devastating to that individual.


WHAT IS A DROUGHT?

A drought is when a region has a shortage of water and most activities involving water cannot be done. A
drought usually hurts a farm owner more then a normal citizen as the wont have sufficient  water to let the
animals drink or to water plants.

How should I prepare?


The only real way to be prepared for a drought is to buy rain barrels or just by getting any canister that can
hold water and try to divert rainfall to collect water prior to a drought. It is a good idea having spare water for
any emergency that might come up. You can also use the land to your advantage and try to tap into an 
underground water or maybe even dig a well so that you can have fresh water.

What should be done once a drought occurs?


  Many things should be done and depending on your moral values, a drought can become an easy way of becoming rich. Once a drought occurs there will be less water for all even animals, so a quick way of making money and saving the herd (rationing water) of animals you have you can sell some of your animals, make money and best of all save water, a key element. By having saved water for months before the drought can be the way you become rich. During the drought people will run out of water quickly and will be supplied with  less and less water till its all gone, by having water you can make a monopoly over the water business and sell it what ever price is convenient for you as it will be in very high demand. Once you become rich you will be able to buy any luxurious drink you want and hopefully you will outlive the drought, now that you are rich.
