Venice has advertised its flooded streets for hundreds of years. They have never bothered to raise their buildings from the water. Their hundreds of years of shortsightedness is their fault and their problem.
I was just there on holiday in October and I walked , ate and loved every moment of my days there... Just seeing all the amazing buildings and Italian history and water at that time that was only in the lagoon.. 🖤 . My heart hurts knowing that this is what it looks like now.. The same streets that I walked on only a few weeks ago... 💔
Ahhh there is the motive for the current situation.... The pope is feeling poopoo about their non compliance in saving the world.... And Casanova was a womanizer!...😂
@@Wtfukker they are trying to save both the city and the lagoon, they could easiely solve the problem by building a barrier beetwen the lagoon and the adriatic Sea, the city would Be saved but the lagoon would die, this Is why they made up the mose, which Is an underwater mobile barrier, but a mobile underwater barrier isnt Easy to build, no One has ever done something Like this... The Dutch Just made some DAMS...
Isn't the historical centre historically known to flood. 50yrs ago was it climate change? How about the 50yr flood before that. I'm sure someone would have told them at the start u dont want to build a city there.
How is it worse than before if its the highest in 50yrs. Its complete misrepresentation of facts to fit a different narrative. The massive works to stabilise the lagoon inlets over past 20yrs were not envisaged due to climate change. It was because the city keeps flooding and really bad sometimes.
Why don’t they text the tourist tourist tax so that way they’ll slow down common and the ones that come will make money and that tax go toward repairs also there needs to be laws to preserve the bloodline of people that are from there never been out of the US but I’ve always like Venice this really breaks my heart. Praying for y’all
It flooded when I lived there in 2008/2009 and most years since...they do need to organize better-coping strategies and sort out their flood gates. That poor very cute shop owner!
If this was 500 years ago the ancients would solve the problem of flooding by filling in the canals. Why are we trying to hold back the water??? To me that's like trying to stop the wind.
New Orleans is literally built below sea level but invested billions to make a sea wall. I know Venice could do the same but Italy doesn’t want to spend the money. So sad.
SpanLat4Life Just for your information, flooding happens every year in Venice. This year is just worse because of the wind and the tide. It has also happen several times each year.
Italians are masters at squandering money; incompetent administrators got their jobs due to favourism and nepotism, those with a bit of brain desert their country going abroad leaving the country's fate to the kind of people cited above. Everyone is to blame in that country.
Apart from this year , no water in the canals this year due to extremely low tides, strange that given the bull we are fed about climate change and rising sea levels 😂

Cows fart in NL coz increase temperature and force them to buy pampers for cows .. but no cows in Venice but condolas and cruise ships .. blame them for climate change ..
I'm so glad they didn't try to blame this on "rising sea levels from climate change". seriously though Venice needs better levies, maybe a double levy gate(for ships) with a sinkable floor.
venice is built on ancient piers of wood stuck in the mud in the middle of the sea. they are at 1 inch above sea level. theres no way to stop the flooding/tide. maybe if we push the moon farther out and the sun while we're at it.
Venice has stood strong for thousands of years. Seeing the rise and fall of dozens of empires, she won’t go down without a fight, this won’t be the end of this great and ancient city. lunga vita a Venezia!
It's All The Ghosts From The Island That's Abandoned Over The In The Distance Getting Revenge On There Town For Shipping Them Over In Boat Loads Back In The Day.
I've been there in summer don't get me wrong it was breath taking but too crowded. I was turned off by the Italian people I went to a cafe the lady who sold me cappuccino was snotty. I wanted to go inside a church but a lady charged me money so I walked away so as the public bathroom but I didn't have a choice. A lady with the mask asked for money when I took pictures beside her. It was a money pit. I was so turned off plus too many tourists from the cruise ships. I didn't like the vibe so this is the karma sorry to say.
Wow .......2mins in and still not heard climate change mentioned ......wow .....a whole sky news broadcast that never blamed it all on Greta’s nightmare !!!!
Having been to Venice which I found unfriendly, I couldn't care less. Some people are lovely, most are arrogant and only want your money. They don't care for the presence of the very people who help their economy. Leave them alone
Actually the excess of turists Is killing Venice, the great Canal is over trafficked and polluted due to excess of turists, some parts of the city are Also sinking couse of It... the city can only benefit from few turists less 😂
Where the sewerage and dirty water from toilet goes ? In Japan I dont smell any bad odors from their stream and rivers but when I was in Venice during the summers the stinking chanel was so bad as if it was sewerage water flowed in the channel. I didnt hire small boat to wander around the chanels coz its smelly .
It's strange how we humans think we can conquer nature...as beautiful as the idea may be...to build a city around water is a recipe for the inevitable...
kiwiwuey this time it’s different, two people died, the streets were like rivers in flood. This video doesn’t inform as it should. sorry for my english

This is just as sad as the Notre Dame burning down. I pray to God for help and wisdom for these dear people.
The ironic part is that the Venice government voted on a bill that denied climate change prior to this flooding.

What did they expect building in a stupid location in the first place?
Indonesia Moving its Capital from Jakarta to Kalimantan. They accept the inevitable.
Jakarta and its people are still there though, moving the capital wont make a bit of fckn difference.
If this was 500 years ago the ancients would solve the problem of flooding by filling in the canals.
Why are we trying to hold back the water???
To me that's like trying to stop the wind.
Realy Sad about italia am so Sorry God Help Italia Please
New Orleans is literally built below sea level but invested billions to make a sea wall. I know Venice could do the same but Italy doesn’t want to spend the money. So sad.
It was built on wooden piles on swamp islands in a lagoon so it is 100% surrounded by water. New Orleans has more solid ground to build on.
has always happened but declare its CC then watch the money role it. CC is used to make money
Fill up the basement with dirt so it won’t flood any more

reminds me of that mud country ep from dilbert
Exquisitely well built built , a work of art
This is nearly as bad as 1966. At the time that was blamed on global cooling.
Wonder what they'll blame in another 50 years, global wetting?
isn't that 30% less than usual?
Abandon ship.
clear water, looks cool
Its smells though. Venics is beautiful but it stinks.
I do not understand this city makes milions with thousand of tourists every year and they do not have money to invest?
I guess the majority goes to sicilian mafia & of course to vatikan :P

Just look on the map to see how easy it would be to close the Venetian Lagoon in order co control the tide.
They shut up when are taking money from the water. When it causes damages they are roaring.
This is awful but they need some flex seal

back in november 1966 the same thing happened ! worst floods ever ! Venice recovered !
Venice has been sinking forever. What did they expect was going to happen after years of not doing anything?

Venice flooded. Pretty sure it's had that problem for quite a long time.
venice is built on ancient piers of wood stuck in the mud in the middle of the sea. they are at 1 inch above sea level. theres no way to stop the flooding/tide. maybe if we push the moon farther out and the sun while we're at it.
why is it flooding?
Global warming. Climate change. Melting of the North and South Pole iceberg.
This is of concern regarding black mold is it not?? Or any mold - this is disastrous!!

Will the floods be gone any time soon? We bought tickets there in December
Odds are it may flood again. It pretty much floods every year there. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acqua_alta
