I don't know if it is possible to save Venice. A good articles on the attempts being made but global warming could be a very tough barrier to overcome. I personally think that we don't have the will to do much about global warming. Often thought that in 75 years a visit to Venice could be on a sightseeing boat through the canals to see the crumbling ruins of a once great city. I hope my pessimist view doesn't hold.

Frank, yes I think that's a likely future. But I submit that if that's true, the sum of the catastrophic scenarios all over will make sightseeing itself a thing of the past.

The big issue is the raising sea levels. Six inches and Venice is gone.
