Introduction
When you are living in the Netherlands you are used to that, nearly 26% of its land falling below sea level, and about 50% is just only exceeding 1 m (3.3 ft) above. The Dutch people have lived many centuries battling the water, not only from the sea but also from her rivers. To protect the land the Dutch have built many sophisticated protecting- and management systems to handle the water, like the Delta Works. Building only a dike or dam is not enough. Today we have won, but we know that we cannot rust, climate change (heavy rain showers) and sea levels are rising globally. Do we (or you) get wet feet in the future?
