The recent English floods were expected. Many more floods will follow until the polar ice returns to its pre-climate change melting rate. Insurance premiums for all of us will rise.
The rivers should be widened to shift the water faster - but in many places there is too much real estate on the river banks. So the rivers must be deepened. What a horrendous cost!
Places like Hull below sea level; will be raised with earth from new canals - as per the Bangladesh.idea,
THE PLAN
We dredge the rivers to the necessary depth and use the dredgings to make mounds close to the rivers. The mounds will last 1000 years. On the mounds we build very attractive residential and business Wind Management Structures above the flood levels We instal on work boats Wind Management Structures to provide the energy for dredging etc..
The money earned from all the electricity generation and rents will pay for the dredging and provide a profit.
