My second suggestion is don’t build too close to the coast in cyclone prone areas. Building codes are irrelevant if your house is flooded to 20 feet or so as happened in New Orleans when Katrina hit.
My third suggestion is to monitor the weather more closely so that people can be given plenty of warning.
My fourth suggestion is that richer countries stop adding to the existing problems of climate change by failing to reduce their emissions of CO2 and other GHGs.
