The catastrophic floods that swept northwest Europe last week were a stark warning that stronger dams, dykes and drainage systems are as urgent as long-term climate change prevention, as once-rare weather events become more common,

As the waters recede, officials are assessing the destruction left by the torrents that terrorised swathes of western and southern Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands, smashing buildings and bridges and killing more than 150 people.

Climate scientists and political leaders are calling for urgency in building stronger infrastructure to prevent the kind of destruction caused by floods that washed over parts of Europe last week.
Torrents swept through western and southern Germany, Austria, Belgium and the Netherlands, destroying buildings and bridges and leaving around 200 people dead. We need to build new infrastructure-containment basins, dykes, riverside overflow drainage areas-and strengthen sewerage systems, dams and barriers, said Lamia Messari-Becker, a professor teaching building technology and construction physics at the University of Siegen in Germany.
