How "levee wars" are making floods worse

Explained with a giant, scientific model. Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO Correction: At 4:27, we mistakenly wrote "Nijmegan" when it should be spelled "Nijmegen." In our latest Vox+ProPublica collaboration, we dive into how a structure that’s designed to protect us from floods, may actually be making them worse. High levees come at a high cost, often pushing water into communities that can’t afford the same protection. To demonstrate, we built a giant, scientific model of a river with levees — complete with adorable tiny houses.
