O knihe
The United Kingdom's recent history of flood events is only likely to increase in frequency and severity due to factors such as climate change and urbanisation. Amphibious architecture is a flood mitigation solution that adapts to climate change. It could be employed to help reduce the risk that UK properties are vulnerable to from the impact of flood events. With new government policy published emphasizing the need to protect green belt and agricultural land, future development required to meet the growing population in restricted to flood risk areas. Flood risk areas are where amphibious architecture will develop in the UK with conventional construction builds being unsuitable and uninsurable for purpose. York and Carlisle are highlighted as two examples as to where amphibious architecture could be utilized, highlighting that low level flood plains such as these give the technology a place to develop, so that in the future it can be used on a much larger scale.
