I assume that map is based on the assumption that the water will spread evenly around the globe and every one will have the same rise in sea level?
It wouldn’t. More accurate, modern models take into effect that centrifugal forces will result in an above average rise in sea level at the equator. As a result the Center of gravity will change in that area, drawing in even more water.
In the end, all the ice melting would actually cause the sea level to drop in the Arctic Ocean and some harbours in northern Greenland end up inshore. The situation at the equator, on the other hand, will be a lot worse than initially predicted by simple models.
Not sure if this map takes that into account?
Addition: climate change is highly complex to predict. Too many variables. But that said, it will be a disaster.

That would suck a big one. Netherlands is cool as hell.

What are those white dots in the east?

I doubt this. There are multiple dunes near the north sea coast that are over 50 meters high.

Almost all Netherland can be seen from King Boudewijn Tower in Belgium – unless you cannot look directly down – that is 🤷🏻♂️

They’ll eventually reclaim all territory lost to the sea, that’s what they do.

Does this include all ice for drinks

Let’s do it! Actually, we already are.

The Veluwe would probably erode away. The south part would eventually grow from sediments of the Maas and new Rhine deltas

I don’t want put Heerlen down, but as long as Maastricht is still standing Heerlen won’t be a capital.

Based Hoge Veluwe Chads

Nah we’ll build it back up again
That’s will never happen because the ice in my freezer won’t ever thaw out
Heerlen mentioned 🔥🔥
They’d just build the levees twice as high. Might just drain doggerland for the fun of it while they’re at it
Just for balance, here’s a map of the Netherlands back when all the ice froze. Doggerland by Atlas Pro.
