floods

[Niall]

I suppose this is a huge can of worms to open but it depends what you believe really. Global warming is a myth in my opinion. Im not saying us polluting the planet hasn't had a knock on effect but no where near as bad as some make out. The earths temperatures have always changed historically and this is nothing new. The issue we have is over building. Building on flood plaines etc and thats why it looks so much worse. Years ago we wouldn't of noticed the floods so much because it would of mostly been fields filled with water. Now that people seem adamant on building on every square inch of land possible because they want a bigger house or bigger drive, when it does rain hard, it hits them hard. But thats all everyone else fault and not greed at all.....
