How can towns like Svendborg adapt to the increasing threat of flooding caused by climate change? And could learning to live with regular, controlled flooding \u2013 rather than fighting it \u2013 be the answer?  This is part two of Let\u2019s Talk Architecture\u2019s deep dive into how Danish architects and planners are addressing the water-related challenges of climate change.   In this episode, host Michael Booth speaks with architect Anna Als Nielsen from Svendborg Municipality about the town\u2019s innovative response. Instead of investing in costly sea walls and flood barriers, Svendborg is embracing a new approach: allowing controlled flooding in specific areas and transforming them into attractive recreational spaces.  Let\u2019s Talk Architecture is a podcast by Danish Architecture Center.
