'Europe is warming faster than the world average, and this will result in a wetter north and a desert-like Mediterranean region. '
This was the opinion of climate experts yesterday. The teams from the European Environment Agency, the World Health Organisation and the European Commission concluded that although we will get more rain it will be in heavy downbursts. If this is the case shouldn't we be studying how to save this water.Channelling the floods must be top priority. Build bigger resevoirs. Update the drainage systems. Storing water for later use and using some to generate hydro-electricity. Just as the sun is so under-used to supply our electricity so is the power of water.
And no more biulding on flood plains!!!
And don't forget the power of the waves, again so under-used.
