Take Flood Action

In this episode of Do Something Bigger from the Carbon Copy Podcast, we are seeking solutions to one of the UK’s most common and most destructive natural disasters: floods. We discover just how high the risk of flooding is, how much worse it is predicted to get – and why this is linked to climate change. We explore ways to prepare for flooding, in homes and in wider communities – and we look at natural flood defences and sustainable urban drainage solutions (SuDS) that can reduce the likelihood of floods happening in the first place. Join host Isabelle Sparrow, special guest co-host Joanna Yarrow, flooding expert Mary Long-Dhonau OBE (AKA Flood Mary) and Rachel Glossop of the Living With Water Partnership to learn:

 

  • About The Phoenix, the sustainable neighbourhood being developed by Joanna Yarrow’s company Human Nature 
  • The importance of greening up and de-paving around homes and in towns and cities 
  • Top tips for protecting your home from flood damage 
  • What a Flood Action Group is and why every community should have one 
  • How to keep vulnerable people safe in the event of a flood
