This week Venice has been flooded by historic high tides three times. St. Mark's Plaza has been deluged by the Adriatic Sea. Tourists had fled the city, as the Lido flood gates fail to hold back the water. The citizens of La Serenissima's 118 islands have struggled to find higher ground on the Po Delta. There was none.
The rightist City Council voted against any measures against climate change such as banning plastic and cruise ships only minutes before the building was swamped by the rising sea.
Throughout Europe over 10% of the populace deny the increasing threat of climate change.
Indonesia at 18% and Saudi Arabia at 16% beat out the USA at 13% and most recently the Trump Regime greenlighted the EPA's rejecting weather science in favor of biblical history.
Obviously ignorance is easy to achieve than enlightenment.
