The Delta Works is what happened when the dutch became tired of coastal flooding and did something permanent about it. It took decades but the results are IMO worth it. One reason the dutch have been able to do this is the existance of water (management) boards, which are independently elected and funded by their own separate taxes. Tjese taxes didn't (and don't) fund all water management but provide a basis which the government can allocate additional funds to.

[@mandje2002]

A river delta is a landform shaped like a triangle, created by the deposition of sediment that is carried by a river and enters slower-moving or stagnant water. This occurs when a river enters an ocean, sea, estuary, lake, reservoir, or (more rarely) another river that cannot carry away the supplied sediment. It is so named because its triangle shape resembles the Greek letter Delta. The size and shape of a delta are controlled by the balance between watershed processes that supply sediment, and receiving basin processes that redistribute, sequester, and export that sediment. The size, geometry, and location of the receiving basin also plays an important role in delta evolution. River deltas are important in human civilization, as they are major agricultural production centers and population centers. They can provide coastline defense and can impact drinking water supply. They are also ecologically important, with different species' assemblages depending on their landscape position. On geologic timescales, they are also important carbon sinks.

Most of it is NOT in Holland, It is in Zealand, Brabant, Friesland, Gelderland, Gromingen, all over the country.

[@marjakeizer9580]

IWAB!!!

[@sarafiter]

as a dutch person living in gelderland i realy do not care if other people refer to the whole country as holland, never met anyone who cared either

[@stanpines9011]

As a Dutch person; semantics bro.

[@lexburen5932]

well, actually all those places you mentioned are part of holland. north- south holland, so he is partly right. greets from Netherlands.

[@Jo_Kuiper]

@@lexburen5932 I disagree, there are only 2 provinces called Holland, north and south, Gelderland, Groningen and all the others together with Holland is called the Netherlands, period.

[@robvantriet2138]

We Dutch also made plans for the US southern and eastern coast and offered them for free, engineers included to then-president Bush. He of course refused but it would have prevented the damage from Katrina.

[@obimk1-ms1jw]

Because the US knows better.!

[@jvdwbd]

The Deltaworks were realized at tremendous costs, howeverit provided the Dutch with excellent knowlegde on how to carry out these projects. Watermanagement and engeneering now also is a Dutch export product. Numerous big industires have grown out of the experience. The Dutch have reclamed land all over the world, build an artificial island in Asia, to provide space foe an entire airport. So knowledge gained pays out. It is like space exploration, it is very expensive, but look what technologies have emerged from it, I really like these reactions. Thanks from a proud Dutchmen,

[@Carnovach]

You know that the Dutch people helped New Orleans when it was flooded, and helped with a lot of issues around the world. Greetings, Roelof

[@user-xi6nk4xs4s]

I'm not proud of achievements of my country (I didn't do anything towards these achievements), but it's one of the few times in our history that a long term solution has been implemented. That alone makes it special for me. I wish politicians around the world would have a bit more of a long term vision, instead of only filling their bank accounts.

[@Ditismijnnaam]

NOPE !!!! Look at the views on KZbin look at the views !!!!!!! NO ONE CARES mate ! NO ONE ! ! ! ! So we Dutch have to close down the borders soon and seal this country of !!!! Or we will be flooded not with water this time but with 100s of millions of people ! The Philippines is a collection of what 7106 islands yeah something like that .... how many islands will be left ya think by 2050 ? NOT A LOT !!!!!! So allllllllll these people will be knocking on OUR DOOR !!!! Soooooo we have to seal it off no one comes in !!!! NO ONE !!!!! Or else we can kiss OUR future goodbye !!!!!!!!

[@Ditismijnnaam]

Dutch doing about it ? Well we are working our asses of in more then 140 countries NOT to let this happen but people JUST DO NOT CARE !!!!! Look around man ! Look on KZbin you think these people appreciate what we Dutch are doing NOPE !!!!!! Henk Ovink is trying to save MILLIONS And MILLIONS and MILLIONS of people and you ought to think that people care right ?

[@Ditismijnnaam]

But the yanks have a GDP of around 20 Trillion dollars what is THEIR excuse ???? The yanks are so damm racist that they can NOT use some of that 20 TRILLION dollars to feed The Philippines that is how AWFUL yanks are !!!!!! Sooooooo by 2050 expect at least 5 to 10 million Filipino's knocking on our door together with 100s and 100s and 100s of millions of people more from all over the globe and what are

[@Ikmijnnaam]

Let's first start with how the yanks and how KZbin is now taking away our freedom of speech I cannot place a coment anymore these days or it will be shadow blocked we got a LOT of issues on our hands we need to solve ... we need to start with the yanks !!! I am sueing them ! I am getting my money mate ! You think I allow the yanks to take away my FREEDOM Of speech neu neu neu neu neu to many Dutch people died for that man ! I am going to sue EVERY user on KZbin and KZbin itself ! Are ya kidding me hell yeah !!!! I am going to sue their asses of !!!! That is what I am going to do ! ! And we need to kick the yanks out of Europe Let's start with the 38.000 yank troops stationed in Germany that the Germans ORDERED TO LEAVE !!!!! Also the Germans had it with the yanks and of course ! Hitler is dead for 76 years what is the reason for them to be here ? Soooo the yanks are now trespassing and by our OWN laws we are ALLOWED to KILL THEM !!!!!!! Let's start with that ? Shall we ??????? Are you ready for war mate ? Are you combat ready ? No ..... well you should !!! Because a storm is coming ! At it ain't going to be pretty ! ! ! So get ready ! We need every man woman and child that is able to fight ! !

@@Ditismijnnaam Can you please explain how this is a response to my comment?

[@bertomure2941]

My God haw heavy rain......

[@cheezy2455]

Its bizar you see so much flooding around the world but very few country's will do something about it. You do not need high tech equipment only reletive simple things people money and time. It took us almost a century to complete . but we did complete it and there are no more floods if you look at a elivation map of holland you would see why it was needed .

[@DanAndHoe]

And we've been doing things like building dykes since the Middle Ages. Hell, it's one way the Dutch managed to work together when The Netherlands wasn't even remotely a single country. Local lords who do actually fight wars against one another had to work together to make sure they didn't all drown. Dykes, polders, it's all pretty simple technology and doesn't even have to be that expensive. Dunes keep a large part of our coast save and just making sure there's enough vegetation on them helps a lot.

[@HyPnOsS1933]

Even a Roman Empire dude say More people died of the water then in war That was 2000 years ago

[@FacelessJanus]

Roky, Delta Airlines is a US airline !!! Besides that it has nothing to do with water, it also has very little to do with the Netherlands, other than being part of the same network of airlines as KLM.

The Delta works are not in Holland

[@bertomure2941]

Baby, you are wearing ORANGE.....love you...

[@rutgerdejong1660]

Why he calling it Holland though...

[@benanders4412]

People are often confused about it. It's not the only mistake he made. The country is called The Netherlands, Holland are just two provinces. And Lelystad isn't the largest city of Flevoland, that would be Almere witch is about two and a half times bigger and still growing.

[@rutgerdejong1660]

@@benanders4412 I know, I'm Dutch myself haha.

[@StefanVeenstra]

Because it's the popular nickname many foreigners know it as and in some languages even the only name for it. Just because it's not accurate, it's not entirely wrong either.

[@lexburen5932]

he is not wrong about it. i am dutch and those regions ARE in holland, actually, in north and south holland. groeten :)

[@rutgerdejong1660]

@@lexburen5932 Im Dutch too and he calls the Netherlands as a country Holland. Thats incorrect.

[@Jo_Kuiper]

The only thing I don't like listening to him, is the fact he calls our country the whole time Holland, it's the Netherlands. What he does is the same as if I call the US just Texas.

[@technopenguinextra8786]

you really need to fix the lag before making the video. i makes it kinda unwatchable/Distracting for me personaly.

[@remcohoman1011]

stop the video before talking through it, missing the answers to stupid questions..

[@mariannevandenberg9777]

you are lissening to lies its not build for klimat change..

[@JulesStoop]

But it is. The fact the Netherlands has slowly lost land in major flooding events from the early middle ages until we started to reclaim and protect land, is very much a function of a slow but steady sea level rise. And in the millennia before a recorded history of the Netherlands existed, a large part of the North Sea used to be land (we call it ‘Doggerland’ nowadays, look it up). This gradual end relentless sea level rise is caused by a changing climate associated with the end of the last ice age. Which meant that temperatures rose, ice melted while land was subsiding. This is still an ongoing proces which is worsened by the onset of anthropogenic climate change in the last few centuries.

[@StefanVeenstra]

​@@JulesStoop Climate has always been changing, there's no stopping it. Best we can do is prepare and adapt.

[@JulesStoop]

@@StefanVeenstra we’ve deforested almost half of the planet, burnt millions of years worth of fossilized carbon, created a mass extinction that might include ourselves (top predators are specifically vulnerable) and that’s all you can say? Of course we need to adapt: it’s either that or perish. But there are still several ways to do this, very important choices to be made. The very first choice is acknowledging we are not passive bystanders.

[@fizbanw.9157]

@@StefanVeenstra you said quote:"Climate has always been changing, there's no stopping it." with your logic you could say that ppl are always dying, there´s no stopping it. thats why we should allow murder. or how about this: ppl will be always sick, there´s nothing stopping it. So why do we make medicine? only because something will always be there doesnt mean you cant make it better, especially when you made it worse over hundreds of years.....

[@therealdutchidiot]

Ah, so this is why the Afsluitdijk needed to have pumps installed instead of the previous Lorentz locks, because the water levels aren'r changing. The Lorentz locks are no longer effective enough due to the sea level rise. Outflow from the IJsselmeer was no longer fast enough to keep up, creating risk in the surrounding areas.
