I once read a comment about an old Dutch joke that said that the Dutch take land away from the sea because it's easier to take land away from the sea than from the Germans.
Dont know where u heard that one. As a dutch person never heard that one... The common line is often; god may have created the world but the dutch created the Netherlands ;)
@@TheSuperhoden who do u think made batavia now Jakarta as the center of governing capital city ? who brought the people all over the world ? the flood happens in collonial dutch too they just leave it and do nothing about it, when they leave for good Jakarta is Netherland legacy to Indonesia
The Dutch plan to wall off the north sea and English channel would be amazing. It probably take a hundred years for all that salt water to turn into fresh water.
Not 'the Dutch' some engineers proposing a possible solution to a worst case scenario if sea levels keep rising. Closing the North Sea /channel would be a economic disaster but not as bad as letting countries get flooded.
@@MargaritaMagdalena Because fresh water constantly flows in the ocean from the continent, so if you cut the North Sea from the rest of the ocean, then it will become fresh water (after a very long time)
That idea would be absurd. It would affect the ocean currents that flows through the artic down the north sea to the baltics. The consequences of it would be unpredictable
did u watch attack on titans? cuz i watched like 2 seasons and im pretty sure the titans made the walls or smth i should really watch the other seasons
Not really, they also has started to build structure like these. Of course pathetic trolls like you would care less 😂😂😂. PS: West Papua is part of Indonesia and there's nothing that trolls like you can do about it 😁😁😁
@@SpicaRigel West Papua will be free one day. Sukarno with his populair PKI followers forces an unfair referendum on the people of West Papua. Keep trolling, the world will remember.
The Dutch seem to be leading the way as it seems that all of Continental Europe facing both the North Sea and the Baltic Sea will have to do this to some degree.
Well, some Dutch engineers once brought up the plan to dam the entire north and Baltic sea off. Basically creating a dam from Scotland to Norway and from England to France. But those kind of projects would have too high of a risk
Yes, you are right. The sea will rise up to 60 meters and stay at that level for about 300-350 years before receding again. No problemo, marine life goes on.
I think about Bangladesh a lot and how India gave you a delta, a flood plain to make a nation. It's true Bangladesh needs to learn from the Dutch by inviting them to teach them how to build flood resistant barriers
@Brown English It's the technology and expertise I am talking about, that kind of help, not politics .Mangroves alone would not help, though it would offer some help
@Brown English no they aren’t, or not in any direct way. Slavery is three centuries ago and the Netherlands claimed land from the sea before then. IF you want to link slavery to a current instance, look no further the the soccer stadia being build in Qatar.
We're really good in managing the ocean, yet the people consistently refuse to do anything on adapting to green energy. We're far, far behind on climate action
🤣🤣🤣 Change is inevitable. Controlling nature, or the world is a dilusional mentality. The only thing YOU CAN do is, adapt to change. I don't think the dinosaur deaths was attributed to human climate change, but dinosaur deaths made it safer for humans to survive.

Unfortunately Dutch people forgot make the Afsluitdijk in Batavia make now Modern Jakarta Struggle against Flooding every single year and now Jakarta is sinking 😤😤😤😤😤
Both are happening now. The sea is rising 1. because the oceans are warming and expanding as a result, 2. the ice is melting rapidly in Greenland, Antarctica and the Hymalaja. This melting process will cause land under Greenland and Antarctica to rise due to the loss of the weight of the land ice.

@@tim3440,
I like that one too.
@G V truth?
You know the speaker is Dutch if that person uses the word *super* oftenly
Or a 2nd grade teacher.
I've now accommodated it into my English after living here for a while
Rather pronouncing Afsluitdijk correctly is the giveaway. Saying super a lot of times is more American than Dutch.
Ag ja super jonge.
"Sweet water lake" is another give-away.
They are going to need to build the attack on titan walls in the future
they need titans to put in the wall for that
Weeb
A "super super super storm" sounds terrifying.

The change in the sea mannerism should also initiate change of structure of the dam incorporating furure change in the ocean.

_"It has taken our country forward."_
Quite literally if you are facing north.
Crazy to think it is suspected to only last 30 years before needing to be upgraded
Sea level is rising due to global warming.
That's a prediction.... It could last 80 more years
@G V how dare you!
Its been there since 1933, it wasn't just build.
30 years is the worst case scenario btw

How will a North Sea wall turn salt water into fresh water?
@@MargaritaMagdalena Same way the Zuiderzee became the IJsselmeer.

The ocean will not rise indefinitely. At some point it will recede again. Life goes on.
