RE: Disaster in the Netherlands. More than 1800 people died as a result of the flood

in #history7 years ago

I am afraid they don't listen. In England they build on floodplains and don't dredge rivers, some places flood every few years. I was flooded out of my retail store in Malibu that was built on a floodplain,only found out after the fact.

I am so sorry to hear that. Happily, you live on dryer ground now!
I am glad that in the Netherlands they anticipate more. A large part of the country is below sea level, so we must take precautions.
