Building on water, a Dutch way to tackle climate change

The Netherlands has a long history of managing water through flood barriers and dikes, crucial for preventing two-thirds of the country from being submerged. With rising sea levels due to global warming, the Dutch are now exploring innovative solutions like floating houses. These projects face regulatory challenges but are seen as essential for future living, especially in the Western Netherlands. Amphibious houses that float with rising water levels are being developed to address climate change impacts, including increased water from melting snow caps in neighboring countries. The Netherlands is also considering flooding reclaimed areas to relieve pressure on dikes, as population density remains high.
