The Environment Agency’s new Position Paper on Nature-Based Solutions is the starting point for an episode in the Planet Possible podcast series, featuring Helen Wakeham, the EA’s Director of Water, and Mark Lloyd, CEO of the Rivers Trust. A wide-ranging discussion includes the challenges presented by lack of performance data, making it difficult to promote or regulate wider-scale adoption. But despite the barriers there is support on all sides for better understanding and implementation of these systems. See HERE for more information and access to the podcast.
Planet Possible is hosted by the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM). Episode 2 in Season 2 also features Nature-based systems, while Episode 4 of Season 3 covers ‘Forever Chemicals’. Don’t miss these and many other topics of interest to EBNet members.
