Venice is built on logs driven into mud and has been sinking for a long time. The Guardian is not somewhere I go for information but the did a good story on Venice floods. https://www.theguardian.com/cities/gallery/2015/jun/16/history-flooding-sinking-city-venice-in-pictures
Its not climate change that is bunk–ITalians are too slow to do anything
TodayTrump is considered a criminal Mrs. Clinton call him deplorable thank you Mrs. Clinton, We are new that.
London has a ‘similar type of situation’ … not quite. The Thames is a river and it is much easier to manage than a city literally ON the ocean.
Oh good protect this ancient City
who thinks that the end of the world is near? that way

Just saw on the news that Venice has flooded, and it was blamed on "climate change." No other reason was suggested. So I looked up info on Venice (Italy) to discover that it consists of 118 small islands separated by canals and linked by over 400 bridges. The whole area is located in a shallow lagoon and is slowly sinking by 1-2 mm annually. Six centuries ago all major rivers were diverted to keep them from flowing into the lagoon. A great deal of engineering took place to build Venice and to keep it from flooding, and engineering continues to this day. Venice is located next to the Adriatic Sea, and tides and sea levels naturally change over the centuries and millennia. Natural storms and floods will continue to occur and vary in intensity. Erosion and silt deposition is constant. The Eurasian plate is drifting eastward at a rate of 2.5 cm annually. We know that there are ancient Greek, Roman, and Egyptian seaports that are now underwater. Oh my gosh, it had to have been due to climate change! (It took me 15 minutes to look up this information. Why aren’t journalists doing this and giving the public the big picture? Could it be that agenda-driven politics is involved and therefore those who control the news attempt to brainwash the public?)
Thigh high boots from YSL?
I just don't give a fuck…
Some how this has to be Trumps fault! LOL

THAT'S BC DA DUTCH AREN'T CORRUPT LIKE DA CAPO"S OF ITALY'S GOVT 😘😘😘
Its not water, its the sea.
Sounds like a lot of corruption for the funds that should have been used in the City which is prone to flooding.
Same with other cities built on watery sites, but the political corruption has not been as flagrant as has been the case in Venice.
Did this happen 50 years ago as stated in this video?
What is the History of this sort of flooding over the Centuries in Venice as the City has always been subject to flooding because of its' location.
The FLOATING city of Venice, one of the most extraordinary cities in the world.
it's not climate change but a door somewhere probably opened if it were actual climate change it would be underwater like towns under a lake by now period
Eventually The People Of Venice Will Evolve Gills And Live Underwater Like The Mermaid People Of Atlantis
Awesome job.
thats Trump and humanity fault
Natural hair on TV? YES!!!!!
