Rising Flood Risks in England by 2050

By 2050, approximately one-quarter of English properties might face increased flood risks due to climate change.

Heavier rainfall and rising sea levels are significantly increasing the threat of devastating floods across England.

The Environment Agency's report highlights the urgent need for improved flood defenses and careful urban planning.

Failing to address these challenges could lead to millions more homes and businesses at risk of significant flooding.
