Re: UK Flooding
I agree with Tweetie (I also worked on a Y2K project team)

Reality is, the climate changes, it changed before man, it'll change after man, perhaps if we spent less time as a species bickering about who did what, and actually adapted our practises around Nature, we might get on better.

Meandering rivers are an option, as are leaky dams, temp water run off areas etc.

Whilst some people are stuck with living underwater, many more aren't, I do despair when you get morons going on about their 'wonderful river view' then crying when their property goes submarine, why would anyone (who has a choice) willingly set up house in an area known for flooding , and since the year 2000 it's happened enough times in the usual places for people to be in the know.
