Your comment having "nearly" in it is very apt, considering the Istanbul Canal one is a huge money laundering scheme and has received city wide protests which the government does not care one bit about. An enormous number of people will lose their homes, their lands, and will be paid peanuts for it, if they even are paid anything.

The Fehmarn Tunnel will be great. Last year i took the Bus from Berlin to Oslo. Took me almost a day. The Time will be reduced immense. Espacially Hamburg - Copenhagen. Also cool part the already existing øresundbridge. You can quickly get to Malmö aswell. Cargo from Sweden and Norway can get way faster into Germany cause they don't have to drive through whole Denmark.

In the UK, we don’t really hear much about some of the projects they’re building but I am really excited for these however it may seem good in theory but may turn out disastrous. I have learned new things today. I never knew about the new nuclear power station we’re building nor the extension of the wind farms. There is a lot of controversy surrounding HS2 however I’m excited to see how it turns out. Thank you for this video though!
