The Dutch and their Delta Living below sea level
Have you ever wondered what the current climate change and rising sea levels mean for the low-lying and densely populated Netherlands? How can a land below sea level exist right along that very sea anyway? What happens when the rivers reach the ocean, and what are the consequences of this sub-sea-level position for the harbors?
The answers to these and many other questions are in this book. Author Jacob Vossestein, a geographer and anthropologist, provides great insight into the watery issues of the Netherlands, many fascinating and fun details and tips on where to go and see these.
