Really interesting.
Colour me surprised that this has some robustness to it. On the face of it, those results looked too strong to be plausible.
I'd still look at some of the timing here and want to dig into what changed with the instruments from 2022 onward... Green stimulus/green deal terms?

And where it's not, it's part of managing nature-based solutions to the development *we've already done* - where yet more grey infrastructure won't make the cut or be cost-effective.
The 'cut through all the nonsense and build' attitude risks no nature, no resilience, and no more livable houses.
