We'll just migrate south to Wallonia and settle there, making the Walloons a minority, just like in the old Great Migration days.

I took from Google but concerning that 50% of this country is located below the sea level I presume this map legit, also I upload this one from Wikipedia. Note that "the wall" of formerly Fries inhabited coastline seen on this map as the current western outline of the Netherlands isnt very much about sea level.

That would mean they all would come here wouldnt it?
Fuck it, they are adorable in contrast to other migrants we get but I prefer it if we dont get swamped by the lot of them at once.

My proposal would be to give them enough cash to build a dam through the dover strait and one between scotland and norway and draining the sea....

Over such a distance and to hit the sea bed you'd need billions upon billions upon billions upon billions.

Also you'll have the conservationists breathing down your neck because of muh fish.

That's practically impossible.

Is the amount of money you loose by loosing this land and the population centers on it.
it seems cheaper to try a megalomanic building project then to loose some of the most densily populated places of yurop, bringing devastation to the states fabric.

On the other hand...

If all the ice would melt it would be actually green and might be populated with the displaced.

Well, officially they're more or less independent, and they gave the gooks there some rights so they decided to leave the European Community in the 80s.

Greenland has gas and oil. It's a great idea. It should be a Germanic homeland though, so no more eskimo shenanigans.

You shouldn't blame them. Those people have lived next to real niggers for half a century. They have lost their consciousness. They have forgotten the idea of civilization and now they think that hooligans have built the piramids

>thinking we'll drown

Rising sea levels aren't really a problem. There's a 100% coverage against storms/rising sea levels with a long coastline full of dunes, the Zuiderzee Works, Delta Works and several other dams/storm surge barriers.

The bigger problem is heavy rain fall and the flooding of the Rhine/Meuse rivers. Instead of fighting the water by building even more dykes and water pumping stations, the water boards want to "make room" for the rising water levels by creating floodplains.

A 20 meter rise is not going to happen, the map itself states it's meant to give an impression but is not per se accurate and agencies have already predicted (1-2 meters) what sea level rise we'll get and are taking actions for it. But I'm sure they're lying though and hiding the truth, because the truth would... well bring a giant amount of funding to them and they wouldn't like that. Haha but no it's the Jews or something.
People on /int/ also seem to have no clue how flooding actually happens, it's mostly the case when the sea level temporarily rises and high waves hit the shore. So even in a bad situation you'd have periodic flooding.
Here we have a system of the highest risk areas (which is the potential damage times the odds of flooding) determines how high dykes become and if you get secondary dykes or not etc..
