why cant we harvest this water and keep it, after a few months u will hear of drought again and the same people will be cursing.

These things are happening because there is no vegetation to hold the soil intact due to deforestation.

On another level, the rains are so severe because of climate change that has resulted from many human activities, including deforestation.

u right human activity that include building homes on dry river courses...open and vacant spaces do not necessarily mean a lack of 'ownership' - nature owns it n no one can stop it.
