We can only do our best to minimise the risk.

But we can and should work to minimise this problem.

A great deal has been done in the last few years to minimise these effects.

What can we do to minimise the amount of loss?

You must understand he did not try to minimise its importance.

I still hope we can do something at least to minimise the damage.
