Funny how in practice, every other country in Europe seems to be flooding more than the Netherlands.
You will all drown long before we will. Our arcane secrets of responsible water management policies are too powerful for your comprehension.
When “per capita” is turning against you
I would never have guessed Germany, France, Italy, and Austria all have higher flood risks than the UK.
Beautiful. Make it happen.
Almost every other country has had more floods than we’ve had in the past decades. Worry about yourself more, because you need it more than we do.

What about Africa, Asia and America?
What a shitty graph. What is the y axis for? Also no explanation on how they got those numbers.
Has this ever not been the case?
*Per capita* this, *per capita* that.
Per capita you’re going to be underwater.
This graph is a mess, that’s the y line supposed to show? Nothing? Then why are the countries displayed at different heights?? Why is turkey so much up and Ukraine so much down, is there a reason or just for design??
I am doing my part 🫡
A “chart” with one axis and bubbles for size? Somewhere, a math teacher is slowly swinging in the wind…
Low effort infographic. We’ll manage as far as drowning is concerned.
The real risk of rising sea levels is salinization of the big rivers and, coastal aquifers, and soil.
You will all be eating salicornia and sea weed instead of tomatoes and cucumbers.
And the increasing energy budget for pumping all the excess river water out as the height difference between inland water level and sea level increases.
The Dutch people that will drown is when they are on a vacation in other countries like Spain and Slovenia
Look, i know you all want us to drown. Hell, even I wouldn’t mind if Amsterdam and surroundings floods. Im safe on a hill…
But you all wouldn’t survive more than a week if we and our infrastructure floods.

The fact that Austria as a landlocked country is so far to the right is the real shocker here though.
What can we do to help expedite the process?
How much is that per capita?
That’s dumb. This doesn’t take into account water protection at all it seems.
Don’t worry, we can just store the excess water in Flevoland nobody will miss them.
Ehh, we have our mighty dykes to protect us, if you know what I mean.

You underestimate our engineering
