Urgent warning as UK faces HUGE water shortages with Brits told to do two things to help
A new report also says water companies must reduce leaks TAPS RUN DRY Urgent warning as UK faces HUGE water shortages with Brits told to do two things to help Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HUGE water shortages of five billion litres a day are coming by 2055 without urgent action, environment officials have warned. A stark new report says water companies must reduce leaks while the public is urged to help by taking shorter showers and even deleting old emails. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Brits are told they can help the water shortage by taking shorter showers Credit: Alamy A growing population, changes to the climate and pressure from new industries are among factors driving up demand, according to the Environment Agency. The regulator warned that England will face a daily shortfall of five billion litres in 30 years' time — around a third of current daily use — without urgent steps. It said the wider economy faces a further daily deficit of a billion litres, amid rising demand from the energy sector, food production and businesses such as water-intensive data centres. The EA says 60 per cent of the expected shortfall needs to be addressed by water companies reducing leaks and managing demand. The rest would come from a major infrastructure boost, including ten new reservoirs, nine desalination plants and seven recycling schemes. But it also urged the public to turn off taps and use full washing machine loads as well as clearing email inboxes to ease pressure on server farms, which use significant amounts of water. EA chairman Alan Lovell said: 'This deficit threatens not only the water from your tap but also economic growth and food production.' The Government has secured £104billion for infrastructure improvement over the next five years. Water firms vow to cut leaks by 17 per cent by 2030 and half by 2050, with ten million smart meters rolled out. 2 Huge water shortages of five billion litres a day are coming by 2055 without urgent action, environment officials have warned Credit: Getty Unlock even more award-winning articles as The Sun launches brand new membership programme - Sun Club.

When will London Oxford Street be pedestrianised?
Banning cars on Oxford Street has been in the pipeline for years – but what is happening with the plan now, and how popular is it? London Oxford Street, which attracts around half a million shoppers each day, will be turned into a European-style promenade without traffic. The £150,000,000 pedestrianisation project is being pushed by the London Mayor Sadiq Khan and local business leaders to restore the famous shopping spot to its 'former glory.' Oxford Street has been blighted by US-style sweet shops in recent years, which sell candy and souvenirs, mainly catering to tourists. Police seized £80,000 worth of fake goods from one candy store, including sweets with banned ingredients. People told Metro previously that they were not fully convinced the pedestrianisation plan will ever happen or whether they would back it. But a new consultation reveals that a majority of Londoners support the pedestrianisation and revamp of Oxford Street. The consultation, carried out by the Greater London Authority between February and May of 6,642 people, shows that two-thirds of Londoners support the pedestrianisation idea, the City Hall says. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Meanwhile, seven out of ten Londoners support the wider regeneration of Oxford Street. Selfridges, John Lewis and IKEA have reportedly welcomed the plans, which will transform the street between Orchard Street and Great Portland Street. More detailed proposals on what the new road will look like are expected within the next couple of months, Metro understands. The pedestrianised zone would also host cultural events and activities as a public space. The mayor said: 'Oxford Street has suffered over many years so urgent action is needed to give our nation's high street a new lease of life. 'It's clear that the vast majority of Londoners and major businesses back our exciting plans, so I'm pleased to confirm that we will now be moving ahead as quickly as possible. 'We want to rejuvenate Oxford Street; establish it as a global leader for shopping, leisure and outdoor events with a world-class, accessible, pedestrianised avenue. 67% of Londoners support the pedestrianisation, the poll shows. The IKEA CEO Peter Jekelby has thrown his support behind the plan, describing it as a 'positive step,' which will create 'a more welcoming and accessible space.' Selfridges' executive director, Meave Wall, said the pedestrianisation plan will shape 'a brighter future for this iconic shopping and entertainment hub.' 'Selfridges has thrived on Oxford Street for well over 100 years and we're hugely energised by the renewed commitment to make this area more enticing and attractive for locals and visitors from around the world,' she said. John Lewis's managing director, Peter Ruis, said: 'We continue to invest significantly in our Oxford Street store – including a new beauty hall, a Waterstones bookshop and the new Jamie Oliver Cookery School – and believe pedestrianisation will create a vibrant, thriving shopping environment enhancing the area's appeal as a top retail destination.' New West End Company, which represents more than 600 businesses in the West End, said Oxford Street alone generates 5% of London's annual economic activity. The group's CEO Dee Corsi said: 'A comprehensive and considered transformation of Oxford Street – delivered in partnership with local businesses and communities – will enhance the area, bringing significant economic benefits to Londoners and the wider UK economy.' 'This will help to attract more international visitors, and act as a magnet for new investment and job creation, driving growth and economic prosperity for decades to come. 'Our plans are not only about creating a beautiful public space where people can shop, eat and connect – but transforming Oxford Street into a place Londoners and the whole of the country can be proud of, as we continue to build a better London for everyone.' More Trending Angela Rayner, the deputy Prime Minister, said the government supports the plan to 'help breathe new life into Oxford Street.' 'We want to see Oxford Street become the thriving place to be for tourists and Londoners alike, and that's why we welcome the Mayor of London's bold proposals to achieve that,' she said. However, traffic will not be banned overnight as the proposal still has to jump through red tape and legal hoops. This includes establishing a Mayoral Development Corporation (MDC), which will be tasked with the revamp. The corporation is set to be up and running by January.

‘Brilliant' fan that keeps homes cool in the heatwave slashed from £150 to £40
With another heatwave imminent, now is the ideal time to get your hands on a fan to help bring the temperature down in your home, and Wowcher has just slashed one from £150 to £40 It seems us Brits are finally getting our long-awaited summer weather, with the temperatures set to soar above 30 degrees over the next few weeks. Whilst that's good news if you're planning on being outdoors or love the heat, it can also be a nightmare when it comes to keeping your home cool and comfortable. A fan is the go-to way for most of us to keep the heat at bay at home, and Wowcher just dropped a deal that's too good to miss. The 80W Black Oscillating Air Cooler Unit with Remote Control is currently available for £39, rather than its usual price of £149.99 – saving you a massive £110. As well as being a bargain price, the Air Cooler Unit is also the perfect handy addition to your home to help keep you cool and comfortable during the summer heatwave. It features three different speed settings and has an automatic oscillation, which ensures the cool air reaches every corner of your space. It also has one additional feature that most regular home fans don't – a water tank. This helps create extra cold air without drying out your environment, ensuring it acts more like air conditioning than a standard fan, and the large four litre capacity means it can operate for longer without needing a refill. According to Wowcher it also operates at a quiet level, so you can keep it running without disturbing your sleep or needing to constantly turn your TV or music up. It's sleek design also means it'll slot effortlessly into most home decors, and you can choose from either black or white colourways. The Air Cooler Unit currently only has one review on Amazon, with someone giving it a five star rating and writing: 'Nice compact and works brilliantly. A lot better than another brand I purchased last year for more than double the price.' As with anything bought on Wowcher you'll need to be quick to nab the fan at its current price, and there are additional postage and packing fees on top of it. However if you don't want to wait for it to arrive and need something quickly, Amazon Prime customers can get their cooling fans delivered with free next day delivery. The Midea SmartAir Fast Chill Tower with 5L Water Tank is currently on sale on Amazon down from £119.99 to £99.99 and functions in a similar way to Wowcher's air cooling unit. It features a five litre water tank, with three speeds and an oscillating feature.
