Increase investment in flood risk management and climate resilience

Petition Details

The UK is at high risk from the impacts of climate change. While climate change is politicised, and many find the topic overwhelming, we must understand and prepare for its consequences: floods, droughts and sea levels rising to name a few.

Additional Information

The UK needs to be better equipped for the increasing impacts of climate change on our country.

There have been several extreme weather events in recent years where climate change has been identified as a potential cause.

The Met Office has said it expects climate change to mean wetter winters, drier summers and more frequent and intense weather extremes, with associated floods and droughts.

We urgently need to increase UK funding around flood risk management and climate resilience before extreme events occur.

I am writing this petition because I care about our future. Do you?
