The Delta Works are a number of structures built to keep the coastline of the Netherlands from flooding. The purpose of all the sluices, dams, and storm surge barriers put into place was to shorten the coastline which would reduce the number of dikes that had to be used. Many people in Holland are subjected to floods that cause major damage and loss of life. Because of the Delta Works, much of this damage can be reduced, possibly eliminated. The total project took almost fifty years to complete. Due to global warming, enhancements to the Delta Works will have to be made in the future.

Maybe, They have to be in Nepal as well. We hear many people dying due to the flood. Dam like this should also be built in Nepal as well.
