RedZone Posted April 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 NOLA has been working very closely with the "Dutch Masters" for several years now.....Yep, the Dutch, They were born fighting the sea. I'm sure other US cities are working with the Dutch as well. Over there (The Netherlands) their Constitution takes that stuff seriously. Here? We laugh at this stuff and pass out checks and MREs. https://www.earthmagazine.org/article/dutch-masters-netherlands-exports-flood-control-expertise The right of the Dutch population to be protected from flooding was written into the constitution, and the Netherlands adopted a very high national standard for flood safety. Their flood protection measures are designed to defend the heavily populated and industrialized western part of the country from 10,000-year floods (those thought to have a 0.01 percent chance of occurring in any given year); less populated areas, meanwhile, have protections designed to guard against a 4,000-year flood. In the U.S., by comparison, a 100-year flood standard (a much lower standard relating to events thought to have a 1 percent chance of occurring in any year) is often the norm for guiding relevant safety and insurance policies.

RedZone Posted April 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2020 Meanwhile. ...trump doesn't believe in a climate crisis though. Go figure. I think that sea wall was suppose to like 15 feet tall... Irish planners reject Trump golf resort's plan to build wall https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/18/irish-planners-reject-donald-trump-golf-resort-plan-build-wall-doonbeg-ireland The climate crisis just became more personal for Donald Trump, after authorities in Ireland rejected an attempt by his Doonbeg golf resort to build a wall to combat rising sea levels. The planning agency An Bord Pleanála said on Wednesday that the proposed 38,000-tonne rock barrier at Doughmore Bay could damage dunes that straddle the golf course in County Clare, on the Atlantic coast. Trump International Golf Links Ireland Enterprises Limited, which is owned by the US president’s family, wanted to build barriers to protect fairways from exceptionally heavy storms and rising sea levels – evidence of a changing climate.
