well i feel worried about it
for the for the crafty for the people in
the islands
as a grown man i'm frightened of the
storm now very much
the coastline has moved a fair bit in
maybe in the areas up to 20 meters or
maybe more it's getting smaller
it's it'll get smaller and that'll
affect what the cropping
you can do in cropping i think the tide
is probably higher than it what it was
obviously that's coming from the climate
change
there is more wind i remember gales in
my youth
that would blow overnight but gales
nowadays seem to go for
two three days is the islands are
from one end to the other are suffering
plus other coastlines in britain which
uh i doubt it would ever see the money
that would repair them
the sea was getting closer and closer to
the runway
over the years we've been monitoring it
and it's
at times coming in five meters at a time
each year
so we've done it in three phases over
the years otherwise we'd had to shorten
the runway
um which would reduce the size of the
aircraft potentially
that were able to come into bembecula
[Music]
i suppose there has been erosion over
the years but certainly the last 20 to
30 years
on this island has gone at a lot
more peace to shore it up with boulders
to
anything at all would take a lot of
money and nobody in this stage now has
that money that would
that would cope with all the coastlines
when you see the the the tide and where
the tide flows over the land
mode you tend to to worry about it
forward i think
