4 How is the council responsible for the flooding?

5 What is the result when it rains?
_______________________________________
_______________________________________

Dear Editor,
Im writing about the recent floods in our town. Ive
lived here since I was a child, i.e. almost forty years,
and I cant remember a time when the flooding has
been so alarming. Of course, the surrounding fields
have always become inundated following a heavy
rainfall. The flooding has never been on this scale
before though, and never within the town centre.
This problem has increased over the past fifteen
years, and it is going to get worse.
It has become very fashionable to talk about climate
change, and to say that the flooding is caused by
rising sea levels. This is a convenient excuse.
Although I agree that we all need to reduce our
carbon footprint, I think that the problem Im
describing is the result of a more local issue.
If readers take a walk along the streams that run
through the town, theyll see that most of them are
blocked by rubbish. It is well known that the council
has reduced the amount of money it spends on
keeping the town clean and the waterways clear.
This means that when we have bad weather, the
rainwater in the streams has nowhere to go but out
onto the streets. If the council doesnt act soon, well
all need boats!
Yours faithfully,
