The Netherlands is a low-lying country, and rising sea levels may cause flooding. This vulnerability to flooding is due to its large percentage of land located below sea level.

The Netherlands is a low-lying country, and this makes it vulnerable to changes in climate, particularly rising sea levels. As a significant portion of the country is below sea level, any increase in sea levels can lead to flooding and the erosion of coastal areas. This makes the Netherlands highly susceptible to the impacts of climate change, such as storm surges and coastal erosion.
