Managing Flood Risk

Over half of the world is covered with water, we need it to stay alive. When there's too much water, or water in the wrong place, it's a problem we call flooding In the UK people are sometimes forced out of their homes when lots of rain has fallen in a short space of time and this causes a flood. We can't prevent flooding entirely, but what we can do is manage floods, which means reducing the likelihood of them occuring in the first place, and minimising impact.
