Really, the venetian lagoon is dying, due to the fact that venetian politicians are buring the truth under contamined sand. Just watch at this video, and try to answer my question "What is the colour of the venetian lagoon? Brown or blue?; There is no time, there are no words. Plaese tell the truth. Death and disability of many workers from various forms of cancer in Porto Marghera near Venice. This is the truth. Pretend truth. You need an investigation on the trace element distribution in sediments, marine water and mussels in the Venetian Lagoon to know the truth? The levels of heavy metals in water and sediments are sufficiently high to cause adverse biological effects. St. Mark's Square, isn't all Venice. The real Venice is a lagoonside town. Lagoon is dying. Remember. Why is dying? Look at the next Video. You are going to understand why venetian politicians are killing the nature. What can you see entering into the lagoon? Little fishing boat? Nooooo.....Cruises trough the venetian lagoon!! Oil tankers, freighters and powerful speedboats that can carry hundreds of tourists create waves that destroy the sandbars and mud-flats, and cancel out the natural movements that once slowed down the advancement of the tides. All these disruptions increase the erosion that is ruining the depths of the lagoon and eating away at the foundations of buildings.

  • I'd like to point out that these ships and activities are there to build the MOSE-system, which has to protect Venice from floods. The building contractor has no choice to dig deep and make a temporary mess of the lagoon in order to save the city.

    Also, I'd like to mention that there are plans to keep a strict maintenance in the lagoon and its surrounding areas, in order to improve the ecosystem. In 2013 the MOSE system wil be finished, just have a little patience. Damn hippies.
