Heard about Natural Flood Management (NFM) before? It was an honor to speak to the good people of Manchester today about NFM. The three channels shown here represent bare, revegetated and revegetated plus gully blocked channels @SocialResponUoM @GeographyUOM @Em_Shuttleworth – at Manchester, England

As tomorrow is #WorldEnvironmentDay, let's take a look back on how some of our @GeographyUOM Professors were involved in investigating how to manage floods that are caused by climate change🌍 @UNEP @EnvAgencyNW @ProtectNFM
The University of Manchester@OfficialUoM18 Feb 2021
How can we manage floods caused by climate change? Our scientists explain how working with nature can limit the impact of floods. @EnvAgencyNW @ProtectNFM
