The excessive rainfall in Britain has reached unprecedented levels, making the last 18 months the wettest on record, significantly impacting communities and landscapes.
Experts warn that traditional flood defenses like sea walls and tidal barriers will not suffice in the face of rising sea levels and increasing severe weather patterns.
In a unique response to flooding, a project in Steart Marshes, Somerset, showcases innovative approaches by scientists, engineers, and conservationists addressing environmental challenges head-on.
The severity of the rainfall has led to devastating effects, including widespread flooding that has submerged agricultural land, damaged homes, and isolated entire communities.
