Australian Floods

The Australian city Brisbane has been suffering from one of the worst floods it has had in years, with water levels reaching peak levels.12 people have died with dozens still missing. 20-30, 000 people has been to have been affected by the flooding. With water levels reported as 4.5m last Thursday.

This natural disaster has caused chaos and distraught to Brisbane. However the only the key to overcoming this disaster is for the community to work together, which is what citizenship really is. More natural disasters are occurring and I feel there are more to come. But what's amazed me is how people have worked together to overcome these disasters such as: the Haiti earth quake and the mining incident, it shows that mankind still has some humanity.

This news flash is a little old because I wrote it last week and have only just typed it up. Sorry.
