Heavy and prolonged rainfall is the principal cause of flooding, but how the land is managed can have a significant effect. The UK tree cover is equal to 13%, while 70% is dedicated to agriculture purposes and pasture. The land management with barren uplands and mono culture is a main didyurbance, that affects the economic and ecologic land fragility.

Rewilding the UK extreme territorries aims to re-establish relationships between human activity and the environment, through the eco-logics: creating ecological, socioeconomic, and cultural patterns and feedback nature based mechanisms.

Finding opportunity areas to reclaim to the current emergencied is fundamental. The metholodogy is based on a straightforward set of assumptions, based on Report to "Friends of the Earth,2020".

Opportunity areas should deal with local activities without compromising importants habitats and biodiversity. This balance changes from landscape to landscape and between local authorities. Because of this, the relation to stakeholder presence and local farmers and communities on the ground that could be involved in the process are fundamental.
