To a certain point I agree. However I think there should be a cut off. If the total number of days exceeds a certain amount then I think whatever climate related issue caused it is safely a disaster and at that point the people involved might be better off focusing resources on that.

For example if a hurricane blows through and levels the school. I doubt it makes sense to focus on FIRST when everyone's education is laying in the rubble.
