  • Stupid mistake the narator is talking about; the 5 m high wall to protect the thje lowlands from the water is not in Rotterdam but in the province 'Zeeland' 40km south of the harbour... It's called 'the deltaworks' and the started engineering this in the 1970's in reaction of a big 'dike-breaktrough' (funny word) in the 1950's. It took about 25 - 30 years to build and protects the south of the Netherlands from the sea...

  • @pandthebeach No YOU are making a mistake, there is a "stormvloedkering" (storm surge barrier) called the Maeslantkering near Hoek van Holland in the Nieuwe Waterweg. It was the last part of the delta works.

    Zie in het Nederlands nl wikipedia org / wiki / Maeslantkering.

  • @wwwwowomgcom but its my shithole

  • These videos only do the following:

    1. define an "obvious" problem/issue,

    2. uses a catchy phrase "turn solutions into actions", and

    3. then moves on to the next obvious problem/issue ...

    It doesn't provide a solution. WHAT is the solution to the challenges the world is facing? Climate change is a global issue. HOW to deal with it?

    Typical marketing journalism with no substance at all.

  • @sabashsabash you put this on every fucking video!

  • no more drugs for western europe

    lol

    good thing imo

  • Who makes these videos? They are pure lies! IPCC (UN climate panel) predicts between 18 and 59 centimeters - most likely much less than half a meter - over the next 100 years. That will be of no consequence to Rotterdam and The Netherlands! They will adapt, if needed, and will handle this with NO PROBLEM.

  • why believe them?

    i bet they got paid to say that by the industries that benefit from pollution

  • @DRWatchmen Its bullshit about that climat and heating of the earth, rising of water there has always been climate chance. Rotterdam has always been a couple of meters below the sealevel they got a gate that closes if there's a storm coming up to protect the haven but not for the sealevel

  • lol the neverlands hehe

  • lol
