I Have Seen the Earth Change : Germany, The Forgotten Islands

The German Halligen islands, in the North Sea are threatened by the rise of the sea level, which could lead to their disappearance as Europe’s first climatic refugees. These Islands and their inhabitants are exposed to sudden rises of the sea level called “Land Unter” at least 10 to 30 times a year. A frequency in constant rising which will inevitably force the islanders to live off these islands

I am from North Frisian and visited Hallig Hooge on a school excursion. With our family we walked during low tide to Oland and got a ride back via trolley. It was fun especially because my family has distant relatives on Oland.

The islands are not forgotten but crowded with tourists in summer.

What is on Oland? I am guessing they have a little newsagent shop.

The northern part of the Netherlands has a whole row of such islands .
Even though it doesn't harm to be vigilant,
