ush your country can gone soon by water and you want mountains lol
Thanks for being that optimistic!
But you're right in some way.
But you all think that our biggest problem is the sea level rising... another big problem is Netherlands is sinking of the ground.
Netherlands always have been fighting against the water.. and since a few centuries we occupied big parts of land where once was water(we pumped it away and still pumping to keep dry feet). Nowadays the sea level is rising and we gotta heighten up our dikes. Where I live at the moment is at the border of where the sea will come at his max when we didn't have dikes.
How the Netherlands will survive throughout this century? It's a big mystery to me.. nobody actually knows how fast the sea level will rise. Only thing we can hope for is that we don't become part of the sea or Europe will miss a big economy and an access to Europe. (Netherlands is
the gateway to Europe).
Edit:
I just looked it up and, where I live in Groningen(at my student room) is 1 a 2 meter above sea level. Where my parents live is about 7 meters above sea level I guess.
Watch here more about the land above sea level.
http://geology.com/sea-level-rise/netherlands.shtmlIf you set it at 0m you're at sea level. The site doesn't take dikes in account, so don't get scared after you set it at +1 sea level rising, it won't all flood. The dikes in the Netherlands are all like 7,65 meter high. There are people who check the condition of the dikes at all time, with some help of electronics of course.
