How Venice Can Save Itself From Massive Flooding 

You should take your family and move somewhere uphill

@@jypsridic if everybody reasoned like this, then our beautiful city would lose its main feature: being a decently-sized city built somewhere where you'd never expect to find it, no, I'm not going to do that. Surrendering before the start of the fight isn't what we Venetians want to do. Until the sea with its crashing waves will bring end to our wonderland, we won't abandon it. Instead, we shall try and find every available solution to stop these increasingly frequent floods, even if it will mean renouncing to our port.

@@serenissimarespublicavenet3945 I suppose we all have to pick our hill to die on. Best of luck to you.

@@jypsridic Thanks a lot. I highly hope that MOSE will work in the next few years or, if that isn't possible, that rising Venice up with underground pumping will be possible. After all, it's already been done after the disastrous 1966 flood, but only on a small scale. Whenever hope remains, the possibilities are infinite.

wait, there are more people there than tourists & elders???

I'm Venician , You can't build a wall because you are going to kill all the Lagunar life

"Build the Wall" referances in 2019,lol

Go to war with Neptune *Caligula Intensifies*

this is impossible because it will kill all the Lagunar life

the funny part is they are involved building dijks and and the gates for ships

*GENIUS*

What are you doing here I’m Dutch and I already thought of a solution, it’s called “de neeltje jans” in Dutch

@@lithiumvids9448 enlighten me

@@merrillgeorge1838 While they have Dashlane surrounding the island

they should reskin with DBrand

I Think they are using brilliant, not skillshare.

@@MatheusTorezani They can use both for maximum protection

At 80 euros per ride? f**k no.

I had been to Venice just to realize it will screw your money ... 1 cup coffee costed me 7 euros in the hotel ... Lol

@@Omprakash-fd2pc I paid 15 for coffee. Just to go to a BATHROOM.

@@cactusmann5542 it's for those guys who don't know where to throw their money

I went on a long long trip across europe. I bought minerals, went to botanical gardens, tried tropical fruit, visited the vatican, versallies, louvre, made a small collection of souvenir magnets and took over 3k photos and videos.. The only things i actually regret wasting money on is that coffee(but when you gotta go you gotta go), and some socks(who turned out to be really short) also from venice. Do not ask why...

it dos'n't work like that instead its for clearing up tight areas filled with water and you have to build the sponge from roof to bottom with how much the area sqaured is sponges

@@nigelmarvin1387 of course it is a joke, wtf

Nigel Marvin, let me introduce you to Desalination.

I still find it crazy that some people can’t get a simple joke

Nigel Marvin you couldn’t drink it even if it wouldn’t be salt water because it’s in the sea

@@nigelmarvin1387 its half salt water.

That would save them from sea-level rise...

uhh I don’t think that’s a good idea

Quinn Murphy No I think it's a wonderful idea ⭐️

Herman Sörgel has entered the chat.

This rings a bell. Didn't nazis want to do something similar? Atlantropa or something?

I forgot to add dashlane

Call the Chinese and it'll not only become a new island but an island that has been part of China's sacred territory since ancient times.

@@darryljones3009 yeah, and they call it "69 dash lines"

bro it wont even be an island anymore, it'll be fully connected to the mainland

We will do the whole adriatic and add a canal for the ships.

@@tim19962 you guys are crazy 😂and so good at that

But it is

It’s the second version of Real Life Lore.

Bruh it is RLL2

Ha. You don’t get my joke.

@@yellowkitty3559 what's the joke

Yuck and stupid that should have been done ages ago. You don't want to step in those floodwaters.

They are, quite literally, knee deep in their own...

Hear me out, that's not a terrible idea. Make the foundations lighter stronger, more buoyant even to help with the sinking, and then raise the city.

this is a terrible idea actually. For starters the houses in Venice aren't even floating, so this wouldn't do anything. And even if they were, no realistic amount of balloons could lift an entire building, or even provide a noticeable amount of assistance in doing so

Clockwork no shit sherlock

Clockwork r/wooosh

@@starsixseven9259 it was a joke 🤦‍♂️

What do you mean? Are you talking about building on top of existing structures or the pumping of silt or water underneath the city to raise the whole area.

Hello The buildings are built on a swamp. So many buildings on a soft ground makes them drift lower. I think Venice could be saved if we built dams near the lagoon of Venice.

@@hazelich9113 What do you mean drift lower? Drift from the higher-ground to the lower ground of the swamp? Like the city is sliding down a hill?

Hello yes

@@hazelich9113 I didn't know this was happening.

Fake news

Uhm because the polar glaciers are melting🤷🏼‍♂️...

Big brain time

Why do people relate everything to a video game ?

Ancient solutions*

I don’t get it?

That idea sounds crazy enough to just work!

Like the spongebob scene

Or we could make it a flying city! Just like air haven from mortal engines.

That sounds like a comic I read like 6 years ago.

Let me introduce you to Atlantis

back in the day it was a genius move. the city was simply impossible to attack by land.

The buildings were just built on the foundations of older buildings rather than stacked upon it.

Oppure, molto semplicemente lasciare il Veneto ai Veneti, visto che questa è la nostra terra

and after a lot of evaporation it will rain and cool down the earth

You do realise the boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius. Plus the salt in the sea increases it to an even hotter point. Such a high global average temperature would be catastrophic.

George Samuelson you do realize I’m being facetious.

Zachary T I don’t get the push thing

Watched Kurzgesagt Stellar Engines?

MLGdigimon it’s a spongebob quote

Oh ok

Been scrolling finally I found it

maybe build a big wall with 2 door passages were ships can enter the transition area where excess water will be pumped out in the transition area if ships want to enter the lagoon/ pumped in if they leave the lagoon. You could generate energy with the flow of water and even make use of tide energy generators, and save some of the Pumps energy consumption. To save the Lagoon environment you could Build a water exchangepump that would constantly let freshwater in and pump more "old water" out. + maybe some trash filtration systems. You could actually create artificial Currents in some of the "venice streets" this might lower the need for gas on the boats. Besides that I love Venice, have been there twice, and It's always awesome. I just love the athmosphere there. Dont visit venice in the main season, its run over by tourists, Visit it in autumn/winter before carnival and other festivals. Its calmer, the weather depending on the month can be still nice, when i was in early december, I got lucky with a sunny day, and directly in the sun it felt like 15 degrees celsius, so usually around that time its like 5-15 degrees(depending on the weather).

That's what they want to do...

Tried but didnt go thorough with it(not cost effective, lazy, scams, etc)

They should just build another port for those ships

I don't think deepening the lagoon would help

Me too!

god damn algee. so close
