while the climate may be changing all around the world with some effects more drastic than the others in different countries, one has to commend the dutch government on the measures they have been taking to roll back climate change. the dutch government believes that one of the causes of climate change in the netherlands is the excessive emissions of carbon dioxide (co2). according to the news on the “rijksoverheid” website; “this year the government will invest €300 million in a series of measures aimed at reducing emissions of carbon dioxide (co2) in the country. projects will involve disconnecting existing residential neighbourhoods from the natural gas grid, using geothermal heat and reducing carbon emissions in agriculture and industry. the government is taking these co2 reduction measures in anticipation of a new national climate and energy agreement.” the dutch government is also a signatory to the paris agreement and intends to work together with other signatory states in combating climate change and all its negative effects.

furthermore, there are also current insights that climate change will continue to have effects in the netherlands – positive as well as negative. however, scientists agree that if the changes continue at the current rate, the effects can still be managed. the effects of climate change in the netherlands are also expected to be more limited than in many other parts of the world. the dutch remain confident in their abilities to keep these effects in check while conscious of the fact that climate change has a huge impact on the world as a whole and the consequences of this will also be felt by the netherlands.
