Tree planting
THE Green Party has called for a major tree-planting project to stop flooding in the aftermath of the Whaley Bridge dam crisis.
Deputy leader Amelia Womack wrote in The Ecologist yesterday: “It often takes a disaster or a near miss before we change the way we do things as a society.”
The Derbyshire dam was damaged by heavy rain and almost collapsed earlier this month, causing more than 1,000 local residents to be evacuated.
