How is the UK at risk of both floods and drought?

England just experienced its wettest 18 months on record, yet is still at risk of water shortages this summer due to poor water management. A hydrologist warns that reservoir stocks can deplete rapidly after wet winters, as seen in 2010. The UK faces a potential daily water shortfall of 5 billion liters by 2050. Solutions include nature-based approaches like reintroducing beavers to help with flooding and water storage.
