It occurred, that with rising sea levels, land will be lost. So, in order to reduce the sea level, we should sacrifice unwanted land to save or even reclaim wanted land.
The decision is where to flood...
Holland is an obvious choice as the dykes would hold in the water they are designed to hold
out.
France would probably occur to the English as the last time England was invaded, it was by the French.
Antarctica would upset some penguins, but the water might freeze and so not need a dam.
Death valley and the dead sea are feasible, as they are below sea level.
I'm for building the wall around France and turning on the taps...

Funny, but no idea here. [-] |

Apparently water retention is a problem for a large proportion of the female population of the world and not just for Dutch lesbians. |

//the last time England was invaded, it was by the French// I
disagree: it was the Americans, in the 1940s. The fact that
the Yanks were invited is neither here nor there: the Angles,
Saxons, & Jutes were invited too, and for a similar reason. |

Yeah, but when the Americans "invaded", they didn't impose their language, customs, food and rules on the ... okay, yeah, it was an invasion, even if it took 50 years to really get nasty. |

Sorry about the movies, guys. |

I like the idea of piling up excess water in Antarctica. I am frustrated by the prospect of moving the water there with puny pumps, even if powered by kadabatic winds or volcanoes. |

I think dredging shallow seas would be easier. |
