Summary

The Netherlands is exposed to both physical and transition risks from climate change. Due to unique geographic factors, about 60 percent of the land surface in the Netherlands is vulnerable to flooding from the sea and the large rivers, with nearly 26 percent of the land surface below sea level. Also, the Netherlands has high levels of nitrogen depositions from agriculture and transportation, exceeding the critical value set by EU Directives.
