Britain Must Prepare For Future Extreme Weather

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

A lot of us are disappointed with the weather this summer. Apart from a few sunny days in June we are now left with grey cloudy days and lengthy downpours. For this reason many people may take the latest statement by the Environment Secretary Hilary Ben as good news. He stated that

by 2080, London will be between 2C and 6C hotter than it is now

. This hotter weather however will result in extremes with greater flooding in the winter and drought in the summer.

If these statements are true then measures need to be put into place so that we can plan for the future.
