Answer:

Check Explanation(Last paragraph).

Explanation:

For the record, Civil Engineers that are workers of government are known as city Engineers. The Government are usually governments presiding over cities. These city Governments will give the civil engineers work to execute for instance building bridges, road and many more.

One of their other roles that is city Engineers is that of what is given in the question that is they build plans to avoid environmental hazards("contingency planning for another major flood'').

So, to answer the question, my response to the council will be;

'' please, let us prepare better for future disasters. Let us learn from this flood disaster. There can be another disaster that will be worse than this so we need to prepare, anything can happen be it tsunami or tectonic shift''.

Acceptance of selve decreases and acceptance of selves increases in older adults?
Crank

Answer:

Acceptance of <em>ideal and future</em> selves decreases and acceptance of <em>past </em>selves increases in older adults?

Explanation:

In the earlier stages of adulthood people are more focused on their <u>ideal and future selves</u>. They put a lot of effort to create certain life for themselves in the future. For example, have a stable well paying job, a big house and a family. They accept the vision of ideal selves and work towards making it real.

Meanwhile, with the process of aging and entering later stages of adulthood, people realize their life may not have unfolded as they intended. They realize that the larger half of life is already completed and tend to accept their <u>past selves</u>. An individual with a healthy mindset would look back and appreciate the journey he or she went through and even see that it turned out to be better than was planned.
