This week’s storm in the Netherlands was the most extreme summer storm we have had since measuring of storms started a century ago. But it is just a prelude of what
we can expect in the future if it comes to the growing magnitude and frequency of
extreme weather events created by global warming.
Local and national governments do well to not only start a serious reduction
of climate gas emissions but also have scenarios ready to physically, organizationally
and financially deal with the effects of more and more intense storms, rainfall, hailstorms, cold waves and heat waves.
