First, to improve adaptability, we should strengthen forecasting

Experts believe that there is no need to be too alarmed about extreme weather, but it is necessary to attach great importance to it and deal with it scientifically. Zhou Bing reminded that at present, China has entered the stage of frequent occurrence of extreme weather, but many people know little about all kinds of extreme weather, especially the huge disastrous consequences that extreme weather may cause. When a disaster strikes, you may be in a hurry because of insufficient preparation, thus aggravating the harm of the disaster. "Climate change has already happened and will continue for a certain period of time. Adaptation is a more urgent and realistic need, and we must enhance our ability to adapt to the climate. "

Zhou Bing believes that to improve adaptability, it is necessary to strengthen forecasting and related basic research, which is the premise of disaster prevention. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the construction of emergency mechanisms for extreme weather, and to provide emergency and disaster relief at any time when disasters come. In addition, the propaganda of extreme weather and its harmfulness should be strengthened. Only by popularizing this knowledge can the whole society keep a high degree of vigilance against disaster weather and avoid the situation that some people are unwilling to leave their homes when disasters such as flash floods come.

Second, take reasonable countermeasures

Man and nature live in harmony. The atmosphere is an important part of the natural environment and a necessary condition for human survival. Strengthening the monitoring and analysis of atmospheric evolution, scientific understanding, following laws, forecasting and forecasting, and taking reasonable countermeasures to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages are important ways to realize the harmonious life between man and nature.
