I visited Amsterdam recently and noticed in conversation with a number of people that both the citizens and governments are very aware and concerned about climate change since they're in a particularly vulnerable position to rising ocean levels.
- the-dude 7y agoWe are already below sea level, and experts claim we can handle an additional multiple meters of sea level rise : https://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2019/10/04/we-kunnen-meters-zeespiegelstijging-aan-a3975698 https://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2019/10/04/we-kunnen-meters-zeespi...
