Giant Robots the solution to our problems?

It's dawned on me that there are certain problems human beings face
right now that are beyond our current ability to handle properly. The
wildfires in California are one example. I'm not sure how long it
will
be, but in the future one can imagine a more robotic solution to the
problem.
(Other solutions include letting people have access to their own fire
hydrants
and not have to rely only on professional firefighters, and many more
water reservoirs in storage in these areas prone to fires).
Tornadoes also seem like an example where one day in the future, some
kind of
gigantic robot may be able to do something to hinder their effects. I
am only daydreaming and imagining, but it seems that if people can
build skyscrapers, and harness algae for all
kinds of fuel sources (http://www.algaefuelmaking.com), the two skills
could be put
together so do some pretty wild stuff. How big would a robotic plane-
like device have
to be to disarm a tornado by counteracting it in some way?
About the algae references, if you watch enough YouTube videos on
algae fuels, you
can see that the fuel/energy problems are already solved, they just
need to be implemented.
Huge robots could actually automate the making of this kind of fuel,
as well as support "themselves" from it.
