Some environments seem impossible to build on. Oceans shift, rivers rise, ice moves, but engineers have learned to listen, adapt and construct in partnership with the planet. 

In this video, we’ll explore three remarkable examples of engineering marvels that battle nature's tough environments. From deep beneath the sea to shifting ice and rising tides, these projects show how vision and resilience can turn extreme environments into places of possibility.

🔍 In this video we explore:

  • How did they build the Seikan Tunnel in Japan?
  • How did they build the Delta Works in The Netherlands?
  • How did they build Halley VI in Antarctica?
