I dont really get what that map is saying. What do they mean with "interactions" and "hostile events".

Not totally wild guess since this kind of stuff shows up in my local paper.
Interaction=some sort of agreement pursued over how much water someone upstream will use as compared to how much they will allow to flow on through.
Hostile event=some sort of violation of previous agreement, or refusal to adapt to changing condition, ie 'yes when there were 1000 acre feet flowing we agreed to only take 500 and let the other half flow on to you, but the agreement specified 500 acre feet for us so now that the flow has dropped off by 50% we are entitled to all of it and TS for you'.
These are probably not the actual definitions used in the chart, but that's the gist of it.

Possible conflicts over water:

What's happening in the Danube basin?

Yea, the whole region is basically a constant war-zone over here. 
It's also funny because the only area of Romania that is predicted to have water problems is the area next to the Black Sea that is not colored in any shade of red/yellow at all.

[lots of dumb quotes fabricated by me and borachio on the issue of UK healthcare costs and outcomes, eventually focussing on alcohol consumption]
Indeed that's one of two possibilities:
...because Brits really don't drink more on average than other Europeans.
So either:
Brittish healthcare isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Or:
Closing all pubs on like 21:15 (or whatever the hell the immensively stupid deadline is), is really bloody stupid (and a 19th century prude, authoriatrian implicitly classist and sexist) thing to do.
Either way being Scottish would be as good an excuse to leave as any other.

Not much intersection there. What makes you say accidental? It's probably spot on accurate.

yeah, those are some pretty dodgy buzzwords of limited applicability.
Not at all. You can then sell the building lots at sea level. And then sell the building lots at the new sea level. And then sell the building lots at the new sea level. And then sell the building lots at the new sea level.

Like any other purchase of coastal property that has to be taken into account. Fairly abrupt rise to a point reasonably high above the tide line is fine. If you are looking at a piece of property with a gradual slope that reaches less than five feet over the entire property it doesn't matter if the ocean is on one side or goes all the way around...it's a bad deal.
