England: 4.6million properties are at risk of surface water flooding, through rainfall.

This is climate change, but also just paving over too much surface, and having limited drainage capacity.

Too much drainage capacity, like the Netherlands, can be bad too: NL now suffers droughts, so we need more *natural* storage capacity, not just flush water to the sea ASAP.
