It has been estimated that healthy natural systems could provide one-third of the most cost effective ways of fighting climate change!
We are calling on the Government in the lead up to COP26 to put investment in nature at the heart of the UK's action on climate change.
Natural Flood Management is an affordable, sustainable method of flood management which uses natural processes to slow the flow of water through the landscape to reduce flood risk and erosion.
When implemented a catchment scale, Natural Flood Management measures act as a chain of sponges that take the peaks out of flash flood events, which are becoming increasingly common as part of our changing climate.
The main challenge for Natural Flood Management is finding suitable and decent sized landholdings to implement these measures as well as willing landowners to engage with that can make a difference.
The Trust have targeted a variety of landholdings across a series of priority catchments in the county, such as the Upper Sow, to look for opportunities to store water and reduce run-off, working closely with landowners and
farmers.
Watch our video to learn what Natural Flood Management restoration work the Trust have been doing to help fight climate change.
