Warming could raise UK flood damage bill by 20%, Say Make-Believe Computer Simulations
MARCH 7, 2023

The usual scaremongering from the BBC:
 

Researchers have produced a detailed "future flood map" of Britain – simulating the impact of flooding as climate change takes its toll.

It has revealed that annual damage caused by flooding could increase by more than a fifth in today’s terms over the next century.

That could be reduced if pledges to reduce global carbon emissions are met.

Not will be reduced but COULD BE reduced.  I guess they don't want to be accused of scaremongering.
