FLOOD!

Today we watched a report about the great Mississippi Flood of 1993, which can be found here on YouTube. 

Answer the following questions about the topic:

1. In what ways are floods natural occurrences?

2. What human activities might cause or increase the risk of flooding?

3. If flood plains are such dangerous places to live, why do people settle on these locations? Why might people who have lived through a severe flood choose to resettle in the same location?
