A big storm is approaching the Netherlands, my home country. The Dutch have always lived with the challenges of the sea, and took measures to keep it from taking over. Have a look on the wikipedia page about the Deltaworks, a state of the art project that both keeps the Netherlands save from the sea and still takes into account the environmental impact of a dike and levee system.
The Dutch seem to have the coming storm under control, no panic necessary:
