UK must adapt to changing weather says Environment Agency

Britain must prepare better for more droughts and more floods in the future, says the Chairman of the Environment Agency. Some rivers like the Ouse and Tyne sank to historic lows and highs within a 4 month period. He said that the UK would have to look into increasing the amount of small reservoirs as well as improving th etransfer of water between dry and wet areas. He also said that more homes will have to be protected from flooding.
