Communities, local authorities and government working together is crucial if we are to tackle the climate emergency, the Environment Agency said today, as it launched its annual Action Plan to help protect England from flooding and coastal erosion.
England currently remains on course for 59 per cent more winter rainfall and once-a-century sea level events every year by 2100 and major adaptation will be required to meet the changing climate picture.
The Environment Agency has just released the FCERM (Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management) Strategy Action Plan that will help to better protect over hundreds of thousands more homes and businesses in the years ahead.
