HOPTalks: What impact is climate change having on Dorset?

What could and should we do?

Coastal and river flooding along with heatwaves are accelerating coastal erosion and affecting both water and land based wildlife. The growth of these impacts are predicted to continue for at least the next 25 years meaning Dorset will have to adapt and become more resilient.
