The Netherlands: Dikes and a Rising Sea
The Dutch work hard to protect their reclaimed land from flooding, all the more important now that the sea level is rising due to climate change. We visit the Maeslant Barrier, which employs long "arms" to protect the densely populated Rotterdam delta from storm surges.

Flood control in the Netherlands Dutch Dikes and Dams
The Netherlands has 249 kilometers of flood defences, including dunes, dikes and dams, 93 lock complexes (with 153 locks), 17 pumping stations, 10 barrages and five storm surge barriers. These structures protect large areas of the Netherlands against flooding. The video I took is only one of the many defenses the Dutch created. Indeed a marvel of engineering and commitment to protect their country. Sana tularan ang kagalingan na yan at wag nakawin ng mga mandarambong ang budgets na nilaan. #Floo

The Netherlands engineered a massive system of storm surge barriers, dikes, and canals that turned one of Earth’s greatest natural threats into a wall of protection and survival. Much of the country lies below sea level, so the Dutch built these defenses to hold back rising oceans, using precision design and advanced technology to keep entire regions dry. This network is considered one of the most ambitious engineering projects in the world, a living example of how innovation can secure the futu
